history

In the area east of the Terek, which has been inhabited by Ingush for at least a few hundred years, the Ingush Aul Scholchi ( Ingush Шолхи ) was located in the place of the current place . After the area was annexed to the Russian Empire , the Cossack hamlet (chutor) Tarski was built there in the 19th century , opposite the Stanitsa Kambilejewskaja (today the village of Kambilejewskoje) and not to be confused with the Stanitsa Tarskaya (today Tarskoye ) further upstream, about 10 km to the south ).

After the Russian Civil War , most of the Cossacks who had been on the side of the “ whites ” there were resettled in the early 1920s , and as a result, the place, now predominantly inhabited by Ingush, belonged to the Checheno-Ingushetan ASSR . As part of the deportation of the Ingush population in 1944, the area was settled with Ossetians and the village was given the name Karza , which still bears the name of a settlement immediately to the west belonging to the city of Vladikavkaz.

In 1963 the Prigorodny rajon ("Vorstadtrajon") surrounding the republic's capital was created and Karza became its administrative seat, which also received its current name, from Russian oktjabr for October , here as a reference to the October Revolution . The return of Ingush to the area originally inhabited by them increased ethnic tensions with the Ossetians from the beginning of the 1980s, which culminated in 1991/1992 in civil war-like clashes with several hundred dead. Oktyabrskoye was one of the focal points.
