hetman

Hetman

Hetman is a political title, historically assigned to military commanders. It was the title of the second-highest military commander in 15th- to 18th-century Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, which together, from 1569 to 1795, comprised the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, or Rzeczpospolita. Hetman was also the highest military office, and head of state, in Ukraine's Hetmanates, the Zaporizhian Host and Ukrainian State. The title was used by Ukraine's Cossacks from the 16th century, and by the Czechs in Bohemia from the Hussite Wars on. Hejtman is today the term for the elected governor of a Czech region .
