A raion (Ukrainian: район, romanized: raion; pl. райони, raiony), often translated as a district, is the second-level administrative division in Ukraine. The modern raion system originated from the 1923–1929 administrative reform in the Soviet Union, including the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, and has remained part of Ukraine's administrative structure since the country's independence in 1991.
