TOPONYMICS
PARTAVA ( BARDI ) REGION was formed in 1930. It covers
an area of 957 km2. The region includes the right bank plain lands of the
River Kura, the lower reaches of the Khachen and Tertu rivers. Partav borders
on Yevlakh, Tartar, Aghdam, Aghjabedi and Zardob regions.
In the medieval times the territory of the region constituted part of the
historical Uti-Arandznak Province. It was often called Partava by the name
of the main town of the province. Until the 19th century Bardabasen was the
most common name applied to Partava.
POLITICAL - ADMINISTRATIVE FORMATION OF NAGORNO KARABAGH (1918-1920):
During this period Nagorno Karabagh existed as a sovereign, self-governed
state formation. The Mousavatists were not able to subdue Karabagh, the citadel
of the Armenians in East Transcaucasus (Azerbaijan) even with the help of
Turkish troops. Turkey failed to meet its goal of extinguishing the Armenian
people of Azerbaijan as one of the main ethnic elements of East Transcaucasus.
However, as the result of the Turkish intervention the ethnic-political disagreement
between the Caucasus Tatars and Armenians in relation with the whole of Azerbaijan
was incorporated with the international-political processes as the "Karabagh
problem".
