Abstract
The revolt of 1825 was a significant event in the history of the Caucasian War. It was led by Beibulat Taimiyev, the leader of the Chechen people, who had unquestionable authority and was the leader of all social and political processes and momentous events in Chechnya in the first third of the 19th century. Chechnya at that time was a fairly developed region having friendly relations with its neighbours. Beibulat supported the teachings of Dagestani preacher Magomed Yaragsky, believing them to be the force that would help him unite and mobilise Chechens in the liberation struggle. From the spring of 1824, the clergy launched large-scale preaching activities throughout Chechnya, calling on the people to stand up for faith and freedom. The rebel forces were extremely mobile and manoeuvrable in 1825. By the summer of 1825, most of the North Caucasus was engulfed in unrest. Russian power did not extend beyond Grozny. This was the period of the peak of Beibulat's power. Meetings of representatives from all Chechen villages were regularly convened to resolve major issues. A vertical of administrative power was established: the turgaks - the elders - military-political leader Beibulat Taimiyev - the People's Assembly - the gulam. The People's Assembly elected him head of all Chechnya with the title "Mehkan Da" and gave him the right to appoint and dismiss elders. A system of punishments was established for disobedience to Beibulat's authority and orders.
