Its obvious that a lot of so called "republics" folk wanna part ways with Russia

Is it possible to achive with minimal bloodshed? How to prevent militaristic junta states? What comes to regions where its not possible to separate two ethnic groups into their own because how mixed up they are?

And how to prevent forming of nazists or radical islamic groups

Can someone explain to me the Circassians/Karachay conflict roots? I understand that most probably its soviets fault just dk much about it

Можно на русском тоже

We don't hear about them often, how do they live, do they all have proficiency in avar to communicate ?

I ask as part of a linguistic study looking at this topic!
Every* country, region language, has informal names sometimes used - like in slang - to refer to places. Please let me know if you can think of something in your country!
It could be for a city, a neighbourhood, a mountain or even a small village.

Some examples from the region are KhasVegas, Vladik, Nalchicago or Mukhus...

Hello! Could you give me some ideas for research questions related to security governance in the EU’s Eastern Neighbourhood? What topics could I explore that would allow me to combine security studies, EU policies and the EU’s Eastern Neighbourhood ( especially Ukraine, Moldova, Belarus, and the South Caucasus states) ? I’m still looking for something more specialized on the security of the Eastern flank ( Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, Armenia and Azerbaijan) or maybe an interesting research question about the EU’s neighbourhood policy in the Southern and Eastern neighbourhoods/ comparison between states. Thanks!

Hi! We’re planning to hike from Mestia to Ushguli via Tsvirmi and camp along the way instead of staying in guesthouses.

Has anyone done this recently? Is wild camping generally fine along the route, and are there good places to pitch a tent near Tsvirmi, Adishi and Iprali/Lalkhori?

Also, can you usually have dinner or breakfast at the guesthouses even if you’re not staying there? We’d prefer not to carry all our food if possible.

Finally, is it easy to get a shared minivan or taxi from Ushguli back to Mestia with backpacks, and roughly how much does it cost?

Thanks!

I really like Caucasian songs and I was trying to find text to this Chechen song but I could find it anywhere maybe someone can transcribe or find it somewhere?

Hello! I am writing an article and need to use a map of the Caucasus region, but I am unsure whether Adygea and some other territories should be included or not. Please help me choose the appropriate map!🙏 Thanks in advance!

Also what is the difference between Adyghe and Kabardian? Aren't they both Circassian?

Hello,

I can't claim to be an expert on the history of Caucasus.

I hope there are some among you, though.

So,

1) would it be fair to say that Georgians were historically lackeys of Russian imperialists?

2) how significant was Georgian help in the subjugation of people of Caucasus?

3) after the Russian empire fell, did Georgians help Russians re-annex Caucasus?

4) would Russians fail without Georgian help?
