Azerbaijan trying to create its history from scratch

PanARMENIAN.Net - The official website of the Kremlin published the scientific work of Russian historians, investigating the historiography of the CIS countries. According to the scientific paper, except Belarus and Armenia, all other CIS countries, particularly Azerbaijan, falsified their history, Ashot Melkonyan Director of the Institute of History of the Armenian National Academy of Sciences told a press conference in Yerevan.

This book ironically tells that the Azerbaijanis ascribe the Armenian history to themselves and allege they are indigenous to the region, and allege that the Armenians are "comers". "It's ridiculous, since before the 1930's there was not simply a nation, Azerbaijanis at all, and the word of Azerbaijan is taken from the geographical name Atrpatakan. Prior to those days, Azerbaijanis were called Caucasian Tatars," he said.
