Since Caucasia’s being under the auspices of Russia in 1864, there has alwaysbeen a conflict between Caucasian peoples who want to live with their own Caucasian languages and cultures which they want to be known and protected andthe central administration who want to hinder that. As a result of such reasons asthe massacres of Caucasian peoples in different historical periods, exiles, ethnicaldichotomy via artificially drawn borders, and most importantly, the replacementof Kumyk language with Russian and it incapability to maintain the geo-culturaltogetherness, the Caucasian culture has been disrespected and the order and balance in Caucasian geography has been destroyed. The answers to the questionssuch as where Caucasia is, what is its culture and identity, who are these peopleliving in this geography, what is the role of these peoples for the Caucasian culture, what is the current situation and what kind of problems the original Caucasian people have with Moscow are tried to be given in the light of geo-politicsand ethno-geography and new solutions are proposed to answer all these questions. Although the title of this study is stated as North Caucasian geography toshed light on the geography, this study aims to explain that such a naming of thisspecific geography is not correct
