Pogroms in Poland and Ukraine

Daily reminder that the word “Pogrom” is a Russian word and a Russian specialty Baltic Sea Latvia Russia Poland Ukraine Slovakia Romania Black Sea Number of pogroms 1 2 - 5 6 - 11 Pale of Settlement Modern countries В ответ @visegrad24 many in Poland and Ukraine right ? В ответ @Max_Pe2r Part of the Russian Empire at the time. Russia didn’t let Jews move out of the Pale of Settlement (white line)

A social media post shows a map of pogroms concentrated across the historical Pale of Settlement, with a reply asking whether there were many in Poland and Ukraine. The response points out that these areas were part of the Russian Empire and explains that Russia restricted Jews from leaving the Pale of Settlement. The joke is a sarcastic correction of an attempt to associate the pogroms primarily with Poland and Ukraine.
