About
Novomyrhorod is a town on the Velyka Vys River in Kirovohrad Oblast, central Ukraine. It was the administrative centre of the imperial frontier territory known as New Serbia and later absorbed the neighbouring town of Zlatopil.
Notes
Zlatopil/Zlatopol was absorbed in 1959; its name is a historical component label, not a synonym for every use of Novomyrhorod. Formal romanization variants are search aids and do not establish common usage in either language.
