Anastasiya Dabizha (died 1729), was a wife of Ivan Skoropadsky, Hetman of Zaporizhian Host (r. 1708–1722).[1] She acted as the trusted political adviser of her spouse and wielded great influence within the affairs of state, particularly in connection with the foreign policy toward Russia, which was well known and became the subject of a Ukrainian saying.[2]
