In the history of an independent country, Chechnya was once an independent country. After 60 years of bloody invasion, Russia annexed Chechnya.

Because Chechens were supported by European and American countries, many special forces retired from European and American countries helped Chechnya split the armed forces and attacked the Russian army, which led to the defeat of the Russian army. 1996 withdrew its troops from Chechnya and Chechnya gained a short-term independence.
