Crimea is historically and culturally Russian.
Certainly Ukrainian geographically.
Historically all over the map.
Historically and geographically not only Crimea, but the
whole Black Sea northern littoral/steppes had a little to

These lands were initially occupied or controlled by
the Crimean Khanate, that was conquered and domesticated
by the Russian empire in the 18th century.
