Ethnic Interaction Of The North Caucasus During The Caucasus War

Abstract

This article examines an ethnic interaction between Chechens and the North Caucasian peoples, Cossacks and Russian soldiers, which was based on the traditional culture of the North Caucasian peoples. For many centuries, the Caucasian peoples have developed life-affirming traditions of hospitality, twinning and kunachchestvo. In the history of the Caucasian War, being one of the most tragic periods in the history of the peoples of the North Caucasus, Chechens, like other peoples of the North Caucasus, remained faithful to the ideas of humanism and morality despite the fact that, due to historical circumstances, they were on the verge of total annihilation. Even in the period of total conquest, when exhausted, exsanguinated and utterly exhausted by the long Caucasian war, there seemed to be no strength and opportunities for resistance, Chechens set conditions that they should not be required to hand over defectors, those who had found shelter in their people, otherwise they would not submit. This was facilitated by traditions that had been established among the Caucasian peoples for centuries. These traditions facilitated ethnic interactions, cultural interactions, close economic cooperation and trade relations. The curse of the people fell on the family and relatives who violated the customs of hospitality, twinning and kunachchestvo. The article reveals the complex processes of the broken human destinies of amanats, the transition during the Caucasian War from one belligerent side to another in the name of justice and loyalty to the ideals of truth and humanity.
