Cossacks
plural of Cossack
Cossacks
Peoples dwelling in the northern hinterlands of the Black and Caspian seas. The term (from the Turkic kazak, "free person") originally referred to semi-independent Tatar groups, which formed in the Dnieper River region. Later it was also applied to peasants who had fled from serfdom in Poland, Lithuania, and Muscovy to the Dnieper and Don regions. The Cossacks had a tradition of independence and received privileges from the Russian government in return for military services. They were used as defenders of the Russian frontier and advance guards for imperial territorial expansion. Attempts in the 17th-18th century to reduce their privileges caused revolts, led by Stenka Razin and Yemelyan Pugachov, and the Cossacks gradually lost their autonomous status
