BRAGUNSKY PRINCEDOM – THE FEUDAL UNIT IN THE CHECHEN REPUBLIC in XVII century
In the middle of XVII century, having accepted protection from Russia, Turkish speaking small tribe of bragunz moved from Nothern Dagestan to new land between rivers the Terek and the Sunzha. The first phase of their stay there was short. Because of political conflicts bragunzs had been compelled to leave a new residence soon enough. From the end of XVII century bragunz murzas had sworn to Russia again and moved to Chechen Land and this day live here.
