Russian
Tzardom invaded Altınordu and Kazan Khanates and expanded it borders to North Caucasia
(Daghestan Region) in East at the end of 16th century. In the West (arount Black Sea),
Crimean Khanate stayed as a buffer region between the Russia and Chechens until the end of
18th century. Peoples in the east of North Caucasia were forced to fight for their
independence against Russian Tzardom from the beginning of 17th century while those
peoples in the east of North Caucasia faced the same faith from the end of 18th
century. Georgia and Armenia in the South Caucasia attended to Russia Tzardom with their
own will at the beginning of 19th century. Azerbaijan left to Russian Tzardom by Iran in
1828. Therefore, North Caucasia was surrounded by Russian Tzardom also in the south at the
beginning of 19th century. Tzardom government set its first target as to invade North
Caucasian with all its military power. Tzaradom Navy blockade Black Sea coacsts and cut
their communication from the whole world. In 1830s, the
most severe phase of North Caucasians’ identical fight for independence, right, land and
freedom started against Russian armies of thousands of soldiers. In this last phase, North
Caucasian people grew “the most famous guerilla leaders of the world war history”
against invader forces, as an English historian stated. These leaders never attacked in
Russian lands but fought for their freedom, right and independence of their country. In
this phase, Western (English, French, German) writers were among North Caucasians and even
some of them live for two or three years together with North Caucasian people and observed
this severe defensive war. These western writers described North Caucasias as “civilized
people” in their articles. They claimed that Russian armies were destroying a
fundamental civilization.
Western countries did to cover the help requirement of
North Caucasian people and their Western friends. In this last phahe of defending war
against invasion, there had been a barbarous massacre in North Caucasia and Russian armies
killed hundred thousands of North Caucasians. This most severe long defending war of human
history ended in 1859 in Chechenia in the east of North Caucasia and lasted in 1864
in Sochi in the west, after which Russian invasion was completed. Invader Russian Army did
not allow North Caucasians stay in the strategical places in the region. After the
invasion was completed, about 1 million North Caucasian were forced to migrated through
the Ottomand Land in difficult conditions. Thousands of people died on their way to exile.
And invasion became a genocide. Being the reminder of this historical reality to whole
humanity, we are the great-grandsons of these exiled people to the Ottomand Land as a
result of the invasion of North Caucasia by Russian Tzardom armies. Russian Tzaradom
settled Kazaks and Russians from 1864 instead of these exiled people from North Caucasia.
