The North Caucasian Emirate (Chechen: Къилбаседа-Кавказан ИмаратKielbaseda-Kavkazan Imarat) was a mainly Avar and ChechenIslamic state that existed in the territory of Chechnya and western Dagestan during the Russian Civil War from September 1919 to March 1920. The emirate's temporary capital was established in the village of Vedeno and its leader, Uzun Hajji Saltinsky[1] (Узун-Хаджи), was given the title "His Majesty the Imam and the Emir of the North Caucasus Emirate, Sheikh Uzun Khair Haji Khan (Узун Хаир Хаджи Хан)".
In September 1919, Uzun Haji announced the creation of the North Caucasus Emirate as an independent monarchy under the protection of the OttomanSultanMehmed VI. Ties were established with Kabardian and South Ossetian insurgents and with Georgia, which recognized the emirate's authorities. However, they failed to remove Volunteer Army troops from the territory of the emirate and became dependent on Bolshevik aid until its suspension.
100 Tumens banknote of the North Caucasian Emirate.
By January 1920, the military and economic situation in the emirate had begun to deteriorate and Uzun Haji consented to the entry of the emirate into the Russian SFSR with promises of autonomy.[citation needed]
