## History

[edit]

Chernigovka was established in 1886 by a group of 25 families from the village of Mutin in Krolevetsky Uyezd of Chernigov Governorate. The migrants chose a comfortable plain surrounded by wooded hills and a small river, and named the village after their former home, Chernigov Governorate.[6]

Chernigovka is the second most populous village in the Russian Far East.

It is located at the junction of the Prikhankaiskaya Plain from the west and the Sikhote-Alin Mountains from the east, which is why the climate here differs from Vladivostok in the direction of sharply continental. Winters are frostier, summers are hotter.
