*************

The Chechen Republic (pron.: /'t??t??n/; Russian: ????´????? ?????´?????, Chechenskaya Respublika; Chechen: ??????? ??????????, Noxçiyn Respublika), commonly referred to as Chechnya (/'t??t?ni?/; Russian: ?????´, Chechnya; Chechen: ?????????, Noxçiyçö), also spelled Chechnia or Chechenia, sometimes referred to as Ichkeria (English: Land of Minerals), is a federal subject (a republic) of Russia. It is located in the North Caucasus, situated in the southernmost part of Eastern Europe, and within 100 kilometers of the Caspian Sea.^[11] The capital of the republic is the city of Grozny. As of the 2010 Census, the republic had a population of 1,268,989 people,^[6] predominantly of the Chechen ethnic group with a substantial Russian minority.

After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Chechen-Ingush ASSR was split into two: the Republic of Ingushetia and the Chechen Republic. The latter proclaimed the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria, which sought independence. Following the First Chechen War with Russia, Chechnya gained de facto independence as the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria. Russian federal control was restored during the Second Chechen War. Since then there has been a systematic reconstruction and rebuilding process, though sporadic fighting continues in the mountains and southern regions of the republic.
