About
Rozdolne is a settlement in the northwestern part of Crimea. Its earlier name Aqşeyh reflects Crimean Tatar history, while German colonists also contributed to the development of the settlement.
Notes
Country UA follows internationally recognized sovereignty over Crimea. Historical Aqşeyh/Aksheykh and German Deutsch-Akscheich are recorded; no enacted restoration replacing Rozdolne was verified. The English/French reference dates the Soviet renaming to December 1944; another Ukrainian encyclopedia dates it differently, so the date is medium certainty. Standard-derived forms are retrieval aids, not claims of English prose frequency. Sources checked 2026-11-15: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rozdolne ; https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rozdolné.
