Because there are no Armenians in Naxchivan. THey are all Azeris, all Armenians ran away from Nax.

It is historic, history is anything that happened in the past.

What is historic? Karabakh was historically part of Azerbaijan? Can you keep your mouth shut for a change?

[MadHandle]

Same with Karabagh...I don't see any Azeris there...I wanna see karabagh as part of Armenia in the near future.

For the past 70years it was. That is HISTORIC. Borders change, get that through your head. Artsakh was Azeri, now it is Armenian. Eastern Turkey was Armenian, now it is Turkish. If you want land, you need to invade it. There is nothing Historic needed to prove anything like this.

Stop ganging up on me.

It is part of Armenia, the UN is getting annoying already. They claim something, but they do not ratify it.

Naxchivan is all Azeri, if you are to invade it, it will attract too much attention and would make Armenians the agressive force (which I am hoping we are not).

Karabagh was connected to Armenia in ancient times, the connection was lost after the division of the Armenian Kingdom in 387 AD. Now that is history not the past 70 years with Azeris.

Karabakh has never been part of an independant Azeri republic or an Azeri kingdom.

Actually, I may be mistaken about this. But to my knowledge, during the first republics of Armenia and Azerbaidjan, Karabakh was still contested.

Does that mean India belongs to Britain? No. To the stronger go the spoils of war.

As far as I know, no Karabakh was never officially part of Azerbaijan. Under Russian rule in 1800s it was linked economically to Baku Province, that was later on named Azerbaijan. But then after Russian revolution in 1917, Karabakh became a state governed by Armenians again. However, when Azeris started to build their State, they pretty much ignored the Armenians right to rule Karabakh. Also when Stalin gave Karabakh to Azerbaijan, it gave it as a autonomous region. So I don’t think it ever was officially part of the Azeri Kingdom.
