Iran is home to ancient civilizations. Although today they are Turkified, Azerbaijanis can trace their history back to several centuries before Christ with the foundation of Atropatene from the ashes of Media. This series presents the main points of the history of Azerbaijan, without bias from Armenian or Caucasian Azerbaijani sources.
1: PRE-ISLAMIC ERA
The Kingdom of Atropatene was founded as a result of the division of Media, due to the invasion of Macedonia. This first short video is an introduction to the history of Azerbaijan.

I worked at a Glendale Auto dealership my boss was a young, beautiful Armenian girl. I was talking to a coworker about the traditions that happen during weddings I’m from Azerbaijan I’m half Sephardic Jew and a half Armenian myself was surprised me was the Armenian girl that was my boss turned around and said oh my God those are the very same traditions we do. What happens is the wedding day? The man and his family goes to the brides home with a band with food with presents with his whole family and they all celebrate together and they walk through with the band to the place that you know if you’re supposed to get married at . I really wish Lennon didn’t give mount Ararat to the Turks, because everything that the Armenian said about being a decedents of Noah proves right today mount Ararat. They have found a boat, a huge boat Noah’s boat . Which goes to prove you know everything that Armenians of been saying about being descendants of Noah and that’s the thing I think they made a huge mistake because it disrupted the balance of power mount Ararat is very significant Armenians, and I think when it was taken away from them, cause a lot of disruption and it caused war between brothers, because there was a point in time when Azerbaijani , Armenians Georgians, we all lived in peace, and we all lived happy that’s why we were able to live amongst each other and each other cities if it wasn’t an issue. But I think Russia really complicated things.
I MUST MENTION IT THAT AZAR MEANS FIRE AND AZARI IS NOT AN ETHNIC GROUP AZARI IS A DILECT OF PAHLAVI LANGUAGE BASED ON HISTORICAL ARCHEOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGYCAL, THANKS

Long live Iranian and Armenian people 🇮🇷👑🇦🇲
Armenians are mixture of various genes and people
Like the Germans before Bismarck, before the occupation of the Russian empire, the Azerbaijanis did not have time to unite and were occupied as Azerbaijani khanates, but after the collapse of the Russian empire, Azerbaijan emerged as a unified state, but was later occupied again by the Soviet Union, only in 1991 year Azerbaijan gained real independence.But if not territorial claims of Armenia against Azerbaijan and Russian claims against Georgia, these three Transcaucasian republics could live in prosperity and development, but unfortunately due to the fault of the Armenian nationalists s and Russian chauvinists, these three small Caucasian countries suffer and are lagging behind in development.
Ahaaa. Now explain me appearing of 30 million Azerbaijanis on the modern 'Atropatene' territories. Did they apperared instantly?
You idiots :/
азербайджанские тюрки -потомки саков.Наша история начинаеться с 7 века до н.э.А что касаеться Албании , то что там большинство саки составляли уже давно ясно.А вам 'виликим АРА диревним ' я желаю неудачи в поисках истории.
Media were Kurds not azerbajin or something stop telling lies
2015 – 1921 = 94 ՝ History of Azerbaijan…
Again an armenian telling Azerbaijani history:)..only idiots can believe it without looking at real sources!
Azarbaijan will be reunited with Iran. Down with the Zionist poison propaganda that has brainwashed some Azeris to forget their own history
There is no such country as Azerbaijan and such nation as Azeri 100 years ago.
They are mixed people that do not belong to this region.
Did i upset you with facts little donkey/eshak?
According to who? show us one credible source that can prove that? Read history that is not published by your country but instead by other countries. Try to find some books about the Roman Empire and see how easily you can find information about the Armenian people but i dare you to try to find one peace of information about your Azeri people in there.
Up to 1938 Azerbaijan was only a geographical area, the people in the region were called Caucasian Tatars not Azeris. It was in the Soviet Union that the decision was made to call the people of Azerbaijan Azeris instead of Caucasian Tatars. The reason for this was, first distance Azeris from Turkey in regards to their ethnicity so Turkey wont have too much influence on Azeris. Also, it was to make it seem like Azeris were indigenous to the area just like Armenians and Georgians.
Name one Russian officer that was fighting on the side of the Armenians. The only help we got from russia was in the form of weapons. Azeris used their muslim faith to trick chechen and afgan fighters into Karabakh. Turkey also sent officers, soldiers, weapons to azeris for help. With all the help you were getting you still lost. The reason for the loss was simple, you cant fight for something if you know deep down inside is not yours.
20 th century, the Armenian people has emerged
This is an outright lie
This is Arzive's history of Azerbaijan.
i think you show only atropotene, how about albania, atually this is the land we are liing in now
Yes, but they are at the service of Farsi culture and policies….We call them assimilated Azeris for your information!
It wasn't forcefully. It was gradual and with the acceptance of the local population since it was the language of administration and many Turkic rulers were fluent in many local languages so the image you are trying to paint is not false and it shows that there is an obvious purpose behind it…
Armenia is Russia's foothold in the Caucasus….All other Caucasus nations hate/dislike Russia but Armenians are still teaching Russian language to their kids which shows they value it even higher than the Armenian language….Now you tell me what kind of freedom is that? Freedom under the Russian flag?
And why is there many Armenians outside than inside Armenia? Because Armenia is Russian territory. I have seen many Armenians proudly talking how they beat Azerbaijan in Karabakh, but we all know that it was with the direct help and sometimes even direct leadership of Russia that Karabakh fell into Armenian hands..
Well, your statement shows your chronic lack of information about the Iranian government ans society. The reason they allowed these religious minorities to have parliament representatives so they will shut their mouths and ask nothing. Go and ask any Armenian or Jew, if they don't fear from being prosecuted they will talk the truth. So having parliament representative doesn't mean they are free…
Science classifies us all as Human Beings, sometimes we all forget that.
Armenians relate to Europeans because our language and cultural is Indo-European, and being Christian we have similar values, there are so many similar words in Armenian that is for example similar to German, or English or Russian, the basis of our identity is Indo-European like most of European nations, and also Persians, but religion divides all.
Armenians don't deny your existence, yes sometimes we all get emotional and say stupid things, but I always quote accurate historical facts, why is there an state in Iran called Azerbaijan? And more Azeris live in Iran than Azerbaijan, over 20 Million and most call themselves Iranians.
I dispute that, I was in Iran and I can tell you that there is more freedom there as an Armenian, or Kurd or Arab than in Turkey, yes Iran is a Islamic Republic but even the Jews have 2 parliament members and openly live their lives as Persian Jews. Most of ruling elite in Iran and religious leaders are ethnic Azeris.
I have no issues with what you say, but according to all historical evidence Azeris were forced to a brutal Turkification process, Ok I understand most in Azerbaijan feel as Turks, but racially, culturally and even on the religious front you have much more in common with Persians/Iranians than Turks
Just like I know as an Armenian (Fathers side) Armenians are racially closer to Persians., Parhians & other Indo-Europeans, but culturally we are now more Caucasain
And yes, you are right, we are Medes in the context of history and even a little bit of Ancient Mesopotemian influence but in addition to that kafkazi and Turkic are cultural and ethnic components which are equally important to all of us…
Anyway to tell you the truth, unlike many nations who are not happy with what they have today and they constantly live in the past so they can feel about themselves, i think we all should forget the past and start co-operating with each other to have a better region for all of us….
