I was trying to find some info about the Lezgins and couldn't find too much. What event does the following refer to:
"The term still strikes a chord in the hearts of most Russians for their fame in resisting Russian conquest for more than half of the 19th century."
The only thing I can think of is that they are referring to Imam Shamil who, apparently, was an Avar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imam_Shamil
I won't pretend to know his ethnicity either way, or if the Lezgins strongly resisted the Russians, but this line isn't very clear and should be fixed by somebody who hopefully knows more about this subject than myself.
