Abstract

The article discusses the policy of the government of the Russian Empire in relation to Catholics of the Kingdom of Poland and the Caucasus in the first half of the 19th century. Due to the fact that the Catholic element in the social structure of Russian statehood had a tendency to constant growth during the territorial expansion of the imperial space, it was necessary to develop optimal parameters in cooperation with the Catholic clergy, to determine their attitude to its activities. The Caucasus region had long remained the territory of attraction of imperial expansion, accompanied by military action against local non-peaceful highlanders. In addition, the Caucasus had long been used by the authorities as a kind of imperial penitentiary system designed to admonish and curb restless characters and minds that can produce ideological and value confusion in the heads of young people, undermine public morality and threaten the existing state foundations. After the events of 1830 - 1831, they began to send to the Caucasus people, who did not want to come to terms with the trampling of their national pride, from the Kingdom of Poland, and were ready to defend it with weapons in their hands, i.e. the most irreconcilable to the Russian Polish patriots or those whom the authorities considered the most dangerous and influential. The Catholic priesthood played an important role in maintaining among the Poles the spirit of Polish national solidarity and adherence to the Polish national tradition, which prevented the rooting of their loyalty to the Russian authorities. After the negative consequences of the influence of the priests on the Polish flock became apparent to the Caucasian authorities, the Russian authorities tried to use the Caucasian Catholics, primarily Armenians, who owed much to Russia, as an alternative to the Polish Catholic clergy. They did not have the spirit of "Polacism" and would not support in the Poles exiled to the Caucasus, the spirit of Polish nationality and intransigence to Russia
