History
Until 18 July 2020, Terny belonged to Nedryhailiv Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Sumy Oblast to five. The area of Nedryhailiv Raion was merged into Romny Raion.[3][4]
Until 26 January 2024, Terny was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Terny became a rural settlement.[5]
