Little Russia, also known as Lesser Russia, Malorussia, or Little Rus', is a geographical and historical term used to describe Ukraine. At the beginning of the 14th century, the patriarch of Constantinople accepted the distinction between what it called the eparchies of ''Megalē Rosiia'' () and ''Mikrà Rosiia'' ().
