Caucasia Wound

War between Caucasian people and Russia is based on different reasons from one side to another side. For Caucasian populace nationalist ideas and religious factors are very important. But for Russia reasons are different. Petrol, land and holding the world order in their hand comes heavier. Actually we can divide reasons to two main parts.
