Özet
Russia's goal at the beginning of the 19th century of conquering the Caucasus encountered huge resistance in the region, especially in the North Caucasus. Local Muslims, who had successfully defended their land against Russia for almost half a century, fell under Russian domination following the capture of Sheik Shamil in 1859. At that time, the process of creating Russia's own administrative structure in the area was launched. In 1860, the Russian government introduced a new structure called the "Military-Public Administration" that was designed specifically for the Caucasus and was based on military administration, with limited inclusion of local people. Using archival documents and primary literature, this research examines the administrative and legal infrastructure of the military-public administration established by Russia in some regions of the Caucasus, why this system was preferred, and the difficulties it encountered.
