Hetmanate may also refer to:

  • Cossack Hetmanate, a Cossack state in the central and north-eastern regions of Ukraine from 1649–1775
  • Left-bank Ukraine, from 1667 through the 18th century, referred to as "Little Russia" or as "the Hetmanate" in Russian sources
  • Ukrainian State, an anti-socialist government that existed on most of the modern territory of Ukraine (except for West Ukraine) from April 29–December 14, 1918
