Ukrainian Naval History as a Component of the Maritime Code of the Nation
Abstract
This study is based on the information from different textbooks and manuals on the Naval and
Navigation History. The Ukrainian publications on the history of navigation and naval history of
Ukraine intended for teaching this subject in higher educational institutions are considered. The
primary purposes of this study are: firstly, the emphasis is on the argumentation and reliability of
historical constructions depending on the maritime professionalism of the researcher; secondly, the
visualisation of historical material is presented clearly in the form of both photographs and relevant
informative tables, which facilitate the perception of information, and in some cases replace a large
number of narrative texts; thirdly, the author’s version of the structuring of the naval history of
Ukraine was developed in tabular form. The study uses the statistical, chronological, and
comparative approaches. As results, several tables and visual information were compiled, which
could replace descriptive verbal historical texts. The connection between the national history of
navigation and the Maritime Code of the Nation is established. The conclusion on the security of the
state from the maritime threats was made due to the motivation of its defenders due to the
professional study of the naval history of Ukraine. Recommendation – the practical significance of
the study is to form a historical basis for adjusting the Ukrainian Navy’s Development Programme.
