TOPONYMICS
BAILAKAN REGION: After the establishment of the Azerbaijani
Soviet Republic, Zhdanov administrative region was created in 1939 which covered
an area of 1131 km2 in the southeast of Artsakh of historical Armenia.
It borders on Aghjabedi, Fizuli, Imishli regions of Azerbaijan and Iran along
the River Arax. The authentic inhabitants, the Armenians, do not live in the
territory of Bailakan region since the late mediaeval ages with an exclusively
plain relief. Following the
example of the Armenians inhabiting in other areas between the rivers Kura and Arax, the entire population of this region fled to the highlands of Artsakh and settled there.
BORDERS OF SOVIET AZERBAIJAN were established in 1921, in the streamline
of the Bolshevik plans on exporting the revolution to the Moslem countries
of the East, basing on the multilateral inter-state agreements and covenants
and the understanding that the issue of the annexed Armenian territories was
the internal affair of AzSSR.
