Shabo (Ukrainian: Шабо; Romanian: Șaba-Târg or Șaba) is a selo of Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi Raion, Odesa Oblast, Ukraine, situated at the Dniester Liman, some 7 km downstream of Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi. It hosts the administration of Shabo rural hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1]
History
A Tatar village was established c. 1500, called Acha-abag "the lower vineyards" (attested 1788). The name was subsequently simplified to Shabag and finally to Shaba / Shabo. After the conquest of Bessarabia by the Russian Empire and its annexation by Russia in 1812, the region suffered a population drain to the Ottoman Empire. Shabo in 1812 had been deserted by all but three or four families. Emperor Alexander I decided to re-populate the region, in 1822 inviting Swiss settlers from Vaud, led by Louis-Vincent Tardent [ru], to cultivate vineyards at Shabo. The descendants of these settlers inhabit Shabo to the present day,[citation needed] and Shabo wine remains famous for its quality.[citation needed]
In 1889, the village Osnovy was founded in what is now southern Ukraine by settlers from Shabo. Osnovy became a significant grape plantation and winemaking site, where the wine was exported through the port of Brytany (present-day Dnipriany).[2] Osnovy eventually merged into Dnipriany in 1957.[3]
