Why Ukraine might be annoying:

    The U.S. soap opera 'Santa Barbara' caused protests because the fans wanted it to be translated to Russian rather than Ukrainian. The Parliament had to get involved.
    The air and water is polluted.
    Although it has the right to do so, it does not stake a claim of territory in Antarctica and does not recognize all other claims on the land.
    Many residents protested and rioted against president Viktor Yanukovych, leading the parliament to vote on stripping him of his powers (February 2014).
    The vote failed, but Yanukovych fled the country and a warrant was issued for his arrest.
    The political unrest opened the door for the Russian military to occupy Crimea.
    In a controversial vote, residents of Crimea overwhelmingly voted to declare independence from Ukraine in favor of becoming a subject of the Russian Federation (March 17, 2014).

Why Ukraine might not be annoying:

    They love to drink milk (reported 35 gallons per person per year).
    Golda Meir, Milla Jovovich, and Vitali and Volodymyr Klitchki were born in present day Ukraine.
    The northeast is contaminated because of the explosion at Chornobyl' Nuclear Power Plant (1986).
    Many of their historical structures were destroyed by communists in the 1930's.
