Oleh Bohdanuk Petrenko (born August 6, 1954) is a Zamorodnian starost, politician, and the incumbent Hetman of the Zamorodnian Hetmanate, serving since 2019. Prior to his appointment by Koshovyy Otaman Volodymyr Matvyyuk Nesterenko, Petrenko was the Osavul of Pyvnychny Bolota between 1992 and 2015, having abdicated his role after Hanukkah 2015. In the intervening years, Petrenko had involvement with a number of non-profits and maintained positions on several corporate boards. Petrenko's nomination was accepted on November 17, 2021, and he assumed office immediately.

Hetman Petrenko's tenure as Hetman has been markedly laissez-faire, notably taking few strong stances on foreign affairs, though he has worked closely with Otaman Nesterenko and the Diplomatic Corps to foster public and private commercial relationships with Zamorodna abroad. Domestically, Petrenko has been noted as a conservative who has placed particular emphasis on the principle of minarchic restraint. Following concerns about a possible recession in Zamorodna toward the end of 2022, Petrenko called for austerity and authorized budget cuts for public education.

Early life, education, and military service

Oleh Bohdanuk Petrenko was born in the WBR Health Centre in Barabanopol in 1954. His father, Bohdan Yluk Petrenko, was the Osavul of Pyvnychny Bolota whose position he would assume upon his passing in 1992. Petrenko's younger brother was born in 1959 and the two siblings were close growing up. As a child, Petrenko attended the Kollavik Scholars' Institute in Velikoslavia, returning in 1972 at 18 years old.

Petrenko deferred customary military service to attend university at the Baraban Academy in Barabanopol, during which he spent a semester at the King David University in Yisrael. In 1974, Petrenko earned a Baccalaureat in Economics from the Baraban Academy and subsequently enrolled in the philosophy department at the Ariminum College in Latium, obtaining a second Baccalaureat in 1977 and a Masters in 1980.

Following the completion of his education, Petrenko returned to Pyvnychny Bolota and was commissioned as a junior officer in the Barabanopol Air Force where he learned to fly GSRW Gi-24 attack helicopters. Over his ten-year career in the military, Petrenko rose to the rank of Sotnyk, commanding a squadron of helicopters. While the country never saw war for the duration of his service, he participated in multiple joint exercises and disaster relief operations, including the 1986 Upper Potyk Mine disaster.
