AI overview

The Ossetians are an Iranian ethnic group native to Ossetia, a region straddling both sides of the Caucasus Mountains, who speak Ossetian, an Eastern Iranian language, along with Russian. They matter as a distinct cultural and linguistic community whose presence across a strategically important mountain region makes them significant to understanding the Caucasus's diverse populations and geopolitics.
