description The article studies the nomadic peoples of the North Caucasus at the beginning of the twentieth century. The relevance is determined by the increased scientiic interest in a little-studied topic and problems of regional history, among which one can mention the interaction of public authorities and the population in solving the problems facing them in the XIX - early XX centuries, relations between peoples. The article emphasizes that by the beginning of the twentieth century, the nomadic peoples of the south of Russia were more and more organically entering the all-Russian market, the Kalmyks, Nogais and Turkmens were introduced to sedentary activities, to all-Russian affairs. This was especially evident during the Russian-Japanese and First World Wars at the beginning of the 20th century. The main attention in the article is paid to three nomadic peoples - Kalmyks, Nogais and Turkmens, the bulk of which was concentrated in the Bolshederbetovskiy ulus, Achikulaksky, Turkmen bailiffs of the Stavropol province and Nogai in the Karanogai bureaucracy of the Tersk region. The article shows the forms of participation of foreigners in the Russian-Japanese and World War I. Being exempted from military service, the aliens made their contribution to assisting the army in inancial means, food, supplies of horse stock, and in opening medical institutions for sick and wounded soldiers. This is conirmed by speciic examples, numbers. Much attention is paid to the national policy of the Russian state, in particular to the uprising in 1916 in the Karanogai district department of the Terek region. The article shows the situation of nomadic peoples in the Russian state and emphasizes that they gained their equality only after the overthrow of the autocracy during the 1917 revolutions. The scientiic novelty of the article lies in a comprehensive study of the participation of nomadic peoples of the North Caucasus in the wars of the early XX century. The problem in this formulation is considered for the irst time. The author shows that during the study period, government policy had a significant impact on the transition of Kalmyks, Nogais and Turkmens to sedentary, which influenced the economic development of nomads: the formation of large livestock farms, an increase in plowing of land, etc. At the same time, according to the author, the socio-political role of nomadic peoples has increased.
