The origin of the nagorno karabakh conflictYerevan
The document discusses the origins of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan. It summarizes that Armenians have historically dominated the region for over 1000 years, though a Turkic population was brought in during the 18th century. In the early 20th century, the newly formed Soviet government established administrative boundaries without regard for ethnic lines. This led to the region of Nagorno-Karabakh, with an Armenian population of 94%, being placed under the newly formed Soviet republic of Azerbaijan in the 1920s. Turkey had ambitions in the region and supported Azerbaijan's claims over Karabakh, leading to conflict and violence, including massacres of Armenians in the cities of Baku and Shushi in 1918
