The Crimean Oblast (Ukrainian: Кримська область, translit: Kryms’ka oblast’; Russian: Крымская область, translit: Krymskaya oblast’) was a former oblast (province) of the former Ukrainian SSR, which was at the time part of the Soviet Union. Its capital was the city of Simferopol.
The Crimean Oblast was created from the newly abolished Crimean ASSR on June 30, 1945. The oblast was then transferred from the Russian SFSR to the Ukrainian SSR on February 19, 1954 (for more information see: Crimea#Soviet Union).
The Crimean oblast's autonomy was restored on February 12, 1992 as the Autonomous Republic of Crimea as part of newly independent Ukraine.
