CHAPTER XIV NAKHITCHEVAN AND THE MAY MASSACRES THIS remote little town on the Persian border, like Djulfa, has played a part in the history of the land in past centuries. To-day it is again to the fore as one of the chief centres of the Tartar-Armenian conflict and the scene of what was perhaps the most abominable massacre since the outbreaks began. I spent several days visiting the town and the neighbourhood, which gave me a clearer idea of this great racial feud than I had obtained either at Baku or at Tiflis. In the two latter places the issues are more complex; at Baku social and labour problems are mixed up with racial and religious hatred, and the situation is further complicated by the presence of large numbers of Russians, and by the activity of the Social-Democratic party; at Tiflis all the various Caucasian races are represented, but the Tartars are not numerous; only quite recently have Tartar-Armenian disturbances occurred there at all. But in the Nakhitchevan district the two races are face to face, and the question appears divested of extraneous issues. Nor are the Armenian Committees at all active, and there are no Tartar "intellectuals." Nakhitchevan-on-the-Araxes * is a very ancient town. It was founded according to the local tradition by Noah, after he had planted the first vine on the slopes of Mount Ararat. It is mentioned by Ptolemy as Naxouana. In the Middle Ages and in more recent times it was an important place, and when all this part of the country was under the dominion of the Persian Shahs, Nakhitchevan was ruled by vassal khans of great power and influence. In 1829 Russia, after her last war with Persia, received Nakhitchevan, together with Erivan, by the treaty of Turkoman Chai. The Armenians played the same...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of Russian Life in the Caucasus This is self-evident, and for many reasons most natural, when we consider the immense distance of the nearest frontier of the Russias; the expense, and the prevailing opinion, as to tho inhospitable nature of the climate - the summers of which, in reality, vie in brilliancy and intensity of temperature with those of the most southern countries. The language itself too, is a great obstacle to national intercourse: its sound, construction, pronunciation, grammar - its very alphabet the very character in which it is written, have scarcely any affinity with those things to which strangers have been accustomed. The Russians are also essentially an exclusive people, and the passport system is of the severest kind. Thus it is that Russia is the last country for the wanderer, the fortune-seeker, or the adventurer. Hence but few foreigners travel in Russia, and few Russian subjects quit their own confines. It is only the elite who find their way to the capitals of Western Europe - and they are of all classes the least communicative. This, then, is Russia's position with regard to the world at large, and foreigners will not visit that country and judge for themselves. No wonder, then, that they remain in a fog of prejudices and false impressions; thinking little about the matter, and knowing less.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the violent disputes that have flared across the former Soviet Union since the late 1980s, the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict is the only one to pose a genuine threat to peace and security throughout Eurasia. By right of its strategic location and oil resources, the Transcaucasus has been and will continue to be a source of interest for external powers competing to advance their geopolitical influence in the region. Under such conditions, the possibility will remain for the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict to reignite and expand to include other powers. The ten-year conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan has been one of the bloodiest and most intractable disputes to emerge from the breakup of the Soviet Union. Animosity that developed between the Armenians and Azeris under czarist Russian rule was fueled by the rise of a dispute over Nagorno-Karabakh, a mountainous region for which both peoples feel an intense nationalistic affinity. The attachment of the region to Azerbaijan by Stalin in 1923 became a source of deep resentment for the Armenians, and during the rule of Gorbachev, a campaign was begun to achieve the peaceful unification of Armenia and Karabakh. Azerbaijan resisted the move as a threat to its territorial integrity, and clashes that broke out soon escalated into a full-scale war that outlived the USSR itself. Although a cease-fire has been observed since May, 1994, a peaceful settlement to the conflict has been elusive. Meanwhile, by right of both the strategic location and resources and the unique security characteristics of the Transcaucasus, major external powers—Russia, Turkey, and Iran—have sought to influence the dispute according to their geopolitical interests. With the growth of interest in the oil riches of the Caspian Sea and the increasing engagement of Western countries, including the United States, the risks and implications of renewed violence between Armenia and Azerbaijan will grow. This major study will be of interest to students, scholars, and policymakers involved with international relations, military affairs, and the Transcaucasus.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Round About Armenia: The Record of a Journey Across the Balkans Through Turkey, the Caucasus, and Persia in 1895 We are going through a critical period in our history, for there is a general tendency among the Powers to hustle us at every turn, whether with the object of forcing us to join one or the other of the opposing camps of European politics, as some suppose, or simply with the view to weakening us, as I think more probable, does not signify. I believe that, if we do not actively intervene in Turkey, we shall presently find the diplomatical chess-board so disposed. That we shall be at a great disadvantage. The examples of Siam, China, and Madagascar are not alarming, but they are significant. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Russian Conquest of the Caucasus: With Maps, Plans, and Illustrations In these circumstances it seemed that a narrative of the Russian conquest of the Caucasus should have its interest for English readers, even though written by one who dis claims all expert knowledge of military affairs, and leaves purely military deductions to be drawn by those better qualified for the task. It is in that h0pe, at all events, that I offer this book to the public, claiming for it only that it is a true statement of the facts, as far as I could discover them, soberly written, and free from bias.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Caucasian Legends Last year the Georgian people celebrated the one hundredth anniversary of the annexation of its country to the dominion of the Great White Tsar. These past one hundred years have been an era of uninterrupted and prosperous development of this nation of chivalry and heroism as well as loyalty and devotion to a great and good cause. In the third century A. D., the Georgians were converted to Christianity by Saint Nina. Ever since they have been a mighty fortress of Christendom amidst wild and fanatic Mahometan tribes. Many a time their loyalty to their faith was sorely tried by the unparalleled cruelty of the Turks and Persians. Their capital was destroyed again and again, their churches ransacked and they commanded to tread upon the holy images which they venerated from childhood upwards. But even in such a terrible moment the Georgians showed themselves worthy of their all glorious; traditions and thousands found their death in the River Koura at Tiflis, their chosen capital. For centuries this little nation of heroes battled with the Infidels and great was their distress, almost overcome by the gigantic forces of savage enemies, when a protector appeared in the north and re-established law and order, confidence and happiness. Seeing that it was essential to assure a permanent security, the ruler of Georgia asked in the name of his people to be annexed to the Motherhood of Orthodox Nations.
