The Ukrainian War of Independence was a period from 1917 to 1921 of sustained warlike conflict between different political and military forces, which resulted in the establishment and development of a Ukrainian republic, later a part of the Soviet Union as the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic. It comprised a series of military conflicts between Ukrainians who supported different governmental, political and military forces, among them Ukrainian nationalists, anarchists, Bolsheviks, the Central Powers forces of Germany and Austria-Hungary, the White Russian Volunteer Army, and Second Polish Republic forces for control of Ukraine after the February Revolution in the Russian Empire. Also involved were foreign interventionists, in particular France and Romania. The struggle lasted from February 1917 to November 1921 and resulted in the division of Ukraine between the Bolshevik Ukrainian SSR, Poland, Romania, and Czechoslovakia. The conflict is frequently viewed within the framework of the Russian Civil War as well as the closing stage of the First World War.
A war of independence is a conflict occurring over a territory that has declared independence. Once the state that previously held the territory sends in military forces to assert its sovereignty or the native population clashes with the former occupier, a separatist rebellion has begun. If a new state is successfully established, the conflict is usually known as a ¨War of Independence¨.
Use of the term largely originates from the American War of Independence but prior conflicts sometimes got the name retroactively—such as the Dutch War of Independence, originally known as the "Seven Years' War" and still often called by that name in the Netherlands themselves.
Examples of war of independence include:

Ukrainians are marking the first anniversary of the beginning of protests which eventually toppled former Moscow-compliant president Yanukovych, but also ruminating about how the country has changed since his ouster in February. The protests began on Maidan square last November after Yanukovych, under pressure from the Kremlin, cancelled a landmark pact with the EU in favour of increasingly close ties with Moscow. Maidan, the fulcrum for the protests which ended in a bloody massacre on February 20th, has returned to normal and a nearby street renamed Heavenly 100 avenue in honour of those killed that day, but what progress has been made? Most Ukrainians viewed the struggle to depose Yanukovych as a de-facto war of independence against Russia, which seized Crimea within days of Yanukovych...
