Kiyevsky (inhabited locality)

Kiyevsky is a type of inhabited locality name primarily found in Russia. It literally translates to "of Kiev" or "related to Kiev." Such place names usually indicate a connection to people originating from Kiev or events associated with the city of Kiev (now Kyiv, Ukraine).
