The reason Chechnya gets such a bad deal is it is the home base of the Russian Mafia.

Add to that the many Muslims who are in the place and the rise in Muslim Fundamentalism, which in turn as lead to a major clamp down by the Russian authorities.

It was occupied by the Germans during the war, leading Stalin later to accuse the Chechnyans of treason and to try to deport them all to camps.
