About
Popilnia is a settlement southeast of Zhytomyr in northern Ukraine. It serves the surrounding settlement community and was formerly a district centre.
Notes
Popilnia is the settlement, distinct from a neighbouring village of the same name. Old administrative-centre claims refer to the pre-2020 raion. Standard-derived romanizations are retrieval aids, not claims of English or French prose frequency.
