The article deals with the reasons of different attitude towards prisoners of war in the Russian Empire, depending on their nationality. In spite of international agreements in the Russian Empire, prisoners of war were divided into Slavs and not Slavs. Attitude of Russian Military Administration to Slavs was much more tolerant than to Germans or Hungarians. This was caused by the position of the Russian Empire in the Balkans, whereby it tried to present itself as a defender of the Slavs and showed its liking for their national liberation movements in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Tolerant attitude to the Czech, Slovak, Polish, Serbian and other under-Austrian prisoners of war broke the combat capability of the Austro-Hungarian Army and motivated them to be taken prisoners. In addition, the article deals with the issue of propaganda among the population, which shaped the image of a German or Hungarian enemy or almost "one of their own" Slavic prisoner of war. The relations of prisoners of war with the local population are also considered.
