Boguchar () is a town and the administrative center of Bogucharsky District in Voronezh Oblast, Russia, located on the Boguchar River (a tributary of the Don River), south of Voronezh, the administrative center of the oblast. Population:
==History== Isaac Massa's map of Southern Russia printed in 1638 indicates a settlement near the confluence of the Boguchar River with Don called Bogunar (an apparent misspelling caused by the similarity of Cyrillic letters ч (ch) and н (n)). However, it is located on a different place than present-day Boguchar, in particular, on the left bank of the Don River. In the 17th century, the region was inhabited by Don Cossacks, but was devastated during the suppression of the Bulavin Rebellion (1707–08), in which the upper Don Cossacks played a major role. Afterwards, the area has never been a part of the Don Cossack Host, but rather of Sloboda Ukraine and later Voronezh Governorate, since it was settled by the cossacks of Ukrainian ethnicity in the years 1716–17. The town status was granted to Boguchar in 1779. According to the 1897 census, the town had a population of 6,636, of which 64.6% were Ukrainians, 32.9% were Russians, 1.4% were Romani and 0.9% were Jews.
