North
Ossetia
- Autonomous republic
in Russia, located on the north Caucasus and apparently
renamed Alania. 8,000 sq km and 634,000 people. Capital:
Vladikavkaz (Ordzhonikidze). Ethnic groups: Ossetians
(50.5%), russians (33.9%), and before 1992 Ingush (8.1%).
The brief war in the Prigorodny region (see a few
placenames in Ingush) of North Ossetia in 1992 was
fatal for the Ingush, and 50,000 had to scape to
Ingushetia. Now Ossetian refugees from South Ossetia seem
to have settled in that area.
