THE PENETRATION OF CHECHNYA INTO THE ALL-RUSSIAN MARKET
This article attempts to analyze the stages of Chechnya's entry into the all-Russian market. The role of the Terek city, built in 1588 at the mouth of the Terek River, which during the XVII - the first quarter of the XVIII century, played a large role in establishing political, commercial, economic and cultural ties of the Caucasian peoples with the Russian people, is characterized. Particular attention is paid to the all-Russian market that contributed to the development of natural resources of Chechnya and the North Caucasus as a whole. Already in the middle of the XVII century, the Russian government sought to use the Terek vineyards for making wines, and at the end of the XVII - the beginning of the XVIII century was interested in the Caucasian iron ore, oil, paints, wool, and other natural resources of this region, necessary for the developing Russian industry.
