many circassian were sent to Turkey. circassians are all over the world today. you can find a lot of circassian people near the black sea, that's where they used to live. some people survived, and some people went back to Russia.

My answer: different person: Ok circassaians are adyga people. The Russian's wanted the land. They lived in a Circassia. On May 28 1864 the Russians STOLE all the land. AT this point many Circassians were all over the world. Some people still were in a small part of Russiaboth ansewers are correct!
