Summary/Abstract: The Caucasus has always been a place of pervasive diversity. Although the diversity of the Caucasian nature creates a beautiful symbiosis, the ethnic and religious diversity in this part of the world from time to time creates considerable difficulties. As reality shows, these difficulties in connection with power interests can turn into a bloody war. There are plenty of such examples in the Caucasus in recent history (the conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh, the conflict in South Ossetia, the conflict in Abkhazia and, of course, the conflict in Chechnya). Until August last year, the least known of them was the one in South Ossetia.
