Central, the Kingdom of Hithit, located in the Covenant of Red, I. Hattušili (M.E. In 1650-1620 he took advantage of the political structure surrounding his leadership and showed the success of expansion in a short time. The Hitlers, who succeeded in establishing a central kingdom in Anadolu, is a ground country and has very few areas in terms of natural defence. In these physical conditions, it was extremely important that the security of these places could be guaranteed as well as the management of the places obtained by the center for the Hitlers who followed a spreading policy. Within the dark part surrounded by enemies, the Hitlers have developed various methods to ensure their security. These methods are sorted in the form of signing treaties with the enemy countries, giving land to the enemy communities in the weak periods, dissolving settlements that lead to instability and opening these areas to the groups who are faithful to the Hitlers, conducting marriages between the rival kingdoms and building gardens and castles to these areas by creating tampon areas near the borders. The Hitlers tried to effectively use the tampon areas strategy to ensure border security against the enemy communities located around the borders. against the hazard of Azzi-Hayaša, located in the north and north-eastern part of the Hithite kingdom, and at the north-eastern border, the Hithites used the Upper Country (KURURUUGUTI) and the Lower Country (KURURU ŠAPLITI) as a tampon area against the spread of Arzawa at the southwestern border. With Kizzuwatna against the Hurri-Mitanni kingdom, which threatens its south and southeastern borders, Išuwa came to the forefront as tampon areas. This tampon region is finally added to the Hurri-Mitanni kingdom.
