Cossack - Russian Cossacks

In the Russian Empire, the Cossacks were organized into several Voisko's, which lived along Russian borderland, or internal borders between Russian and non-Russian peoples.

  • Voisko ("host") - a major cossack military and administrative unit.
  • Ataman - a Russian cossack military leader or subordinate leader (derived from the Turkic "ataman")
  • Sotnia ("hundred") - a military unit.
  • Stanitsa - cossack settlement, a village.
  • Cossack, Prikazny, Uryadnik (minor and major), Podkhorunzhiy, Khorunzhiy, Sotnik, Podyesaul, Yesaul, Voiskovoy starshina, -- cossack military ranks (from lowest up)

In 1988 a Soviet law allowed Cossacks to form again. All voiskos are independent of each other, but for a voisko to be recognized as "official" it needs to have the permission of the Supreme Ataman of the All-Mighty Donsokoye Voisko (who is even allowed to wear the Marshal Star). Since most of the modern Cossack organisations (even those that found themselves outside the Russian Federation after 1991) were formed shortly after the law was passed, all of them exist in a loose "confederation" with each other.
