It's not the conflict between South Ossetia and Russia, it's the conflict between Georgia and South Ossetia.

But Georgia didn't want to let them go, the president of Georgia is fully concerned that he has the right to govern SO and its territories. And Georgia started bombig the capital of South Ossetia to show that they own it. Thousands of peaceful south ossetians died.

When was Provisional Administrative Entity of South Ossetia created?

South Ossetian Autonomous Oblast was founded on 20 April 1922 within the larger Georgian Soviet Republic of the Soviet Union. South Ossetia fought for independence from a newly independent Georgia and came to a ceasefire on 24 June 1992, which created the de facto independent Republic of South Ossetia using the same government from the prior autonomous oblast. As a result of the 2008 War between Georgia and South Ossetia, South Ossetian affairs are heavily influenced by Russia to the point where South Ossetia has effectively become a Russian colony. (It is the same way that the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus is effectively a Turkish colony.)


What is thecurrent war about between Georgia and Russia?

Georgia invaded one of its neighboring states, ossetia, that broke off and became an independent state in the 1990s. While the whole of Ossetia is an independent state, south Ossetia was a previous territory of Georgia and Georgia, wishing to regain its lost territory, invaded. Ossetia however, has gained close ties with russia in the past years and now has the Russian military on their side. Russia now is attacking Georgia for invading its ally, but instead of staying within Ossetia, they are crossing the border into Georgia and fighting there, as well as bombing areas outside zones in which fighting is taking place.
