    The document summarizes the political history of the Caucasus region from 1900 to 2021. It describes periods of genocide, wars for independence from the Ottoman Empire leading to the formation of Soviet republics. The Caucasus countries were occupied by the USSR from 1931-1940 and had a relatively peaceful time from 1941-1980 while under Soviet protection. From 1981-1990, the region experienced new conflicts and wars over territories. Major wars occurred from 1991-2000 including those over Abkhazia and Chechnya. Another war, the Russo-Georgian war, began in 2008. Ongoing tensions continue today with a renewed Nagorno-Karabakh war in 2020.

    Caucasus region

    POLITICAL INTERESTS
    1900 - 1910

    At the time massive


    genocide of caucasian
    people took place
    1911 - 1920

    All the three countries


    were in state of war for
    independence
    1921 - 1930
    As a result of war the
    Transcaucasian Socialist
    Federative Republic was
    formed, just as the
    Armenian, Georgian and
    Azerbaijan Socialist
    Republic
    1931 - 1940

    The caucasian
    countries were all
    occupied by the USSR
    1941 - 1980

    This period of time was


    more or less peaceful for
    these countries, because
    they were not involved in
    the WW2, and were under
    the protection of the USSR
    1981 - 1990
    Next, another period of war
    and conflicts began.
    Armenia, Georgia and
    Azerbaijan were involved in
    such cwars as the First
    Nagorno-Karabakh war and
    the Ossetian-Ingush conflict.
    1991 - 2000
    A lot of wars happened on this
    territory, some of them are:
    1) war in Abkhazia (1992 - 1993)
    2) the First Chechen War (1994 -
    1996)
    3) the Second Chechen War
    (1999 - 2006)
    2001 - 2021

    Another war began - the


    Russo-Georgian war.
    Nowadays in is finished but
    still the situation in the
    Caucasus region is not calm -
    since 2020 a new
    Nagorno-Karabakh war takes
    place
    Thank you for your attention
