Abstract:
In recent years, research interest in the events of World War II and especially in its most
important component, the war of the Soviet Union with Nazi Germany, has noticeably increased.
The publication of new documents reveals many previously unknown pages of military history,
concretizes and supplements the seemingly already known ones. This article, based on archival
sources and historiographic data, highlights the policy of the German authorities in the period of the
occupation of most of the territory of North Ossetia during the Great Patriotic War. It is shown that
the actions of the invaders to establish the so-called «new order», accompanied by brutal punitive
measures, provoked active opposition from the local population. At the same time, many people
were forced to work for the occupiers, a large number of citizens were sent to work in Germany.
An important role in the struggle against the German fascist invaders was played by the national
struggle behind enemy lines. The Supreme Command and the leadership of the USSR from the very
first days of the war gave the partisan movement a purposeful and organized character. Residents of
North Ossetia also took an active part in the partisan movement. In the occupied territory, partisan
detachments were organized, conducting raids behind enemy lines. The economic situation of the
republic is analyzed and a conclusion is made about the significant damage caused many economic
sectors during the occupation.
Keywords: Great Patriotic war, North Ossetia, occupation, civilians, Governor, national economy, German army
