Person
Nikolai Yevdokimov
Count Nikolai Yevdokimov was a Russian general who rose from the ranks to command in the North Caucasus. After the surrender of Imam Shamil in 1859 he directed the final conquest of the western Caucasus, in which Circassian villages were systematically destroyed and their people given the choice of resettlement on the Kuban plain or emigration to the Ottoman Empire, leading to mass expulsion by 1864.
