| This is a brief video about Caucasus and North Caucasus generality and about Vainakh People (Wainakh People) specifically.
I started with Caucasus history and the countries, and then I moved to North Caucasus and explained a little about the countries and people, and I mentioned South Caucasus.
The Caucasian countries from right to left on the map are: Dagestan, Azerbaijan, Chechnya, Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, Karachay-Cherkess, Adegeya, Abkhazia, North Ossetia, South Ossetia, Georgia, Armenia.
The North Caucasus: Dagestan, Chechnya, Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, Karachay-Cherkess, Adegeya, Abkhazia, North Ossetia, South Ossetia.
The South Caucasus: Azerbaijan, Georgia, Armenia, Turkey.
Then I started to talk about Wainakh People, moving from the definition to history, architecture, and necropolis.
Finally talking about Wainakh People, from division, origins, geography, history, language, culture, and regions. Starting with Chechens then Ingush then Bats and Kist. At the end there is a small chart about Nakh Languages.
