Abstract

The Russian Empire invaded the North Caucasus in the 19th century. It was mainly Cossacks who settled there. The local population was Islamic, which made them closer to Persia and the Ottoman Empire. After the 1917 revolution in Russia, the North Caucasus was the scene of battles between the “white”, “red” forces and local population with the Cossacks. Ultimately, the Bolsheviks won and incorporated the area into the USSR.
