	Note: Four characters (two upper and lower case letter pairs) were removed from the Cyrillic block in version 1.0.1 during the process of unifying with ISO 10646.

Cyrillic is a Unicode block containing the characters used to write the most widely used languages with a Cyrillic orthography. The core of the block is based on the ISO 8859-5 standard, with additions for minority languages and historic orthographies.
