==Information==
Azerbaijan is a country in Eurasia bordered by [[Russia Genealogy|Russia]], [[Georgia (country) Genealogy|Georgia]], [[Armenia Genealogy|Armenia]], and [[Iran Genealogy|Iran]]. It was formerly ruled by Russia and the Soviet Union. The official language is Azerbaijani.<ref>Wikipedia contributors, "Azerbaijan," in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia,'' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azerbaijan, accessed 4 May 2016.</ref>


In ancient times, this region was populated by Iranian speakers, Turkic tribes, Kurds, and Caucasian Albanians. The Albanians were converts to Christianity. The Caucasian Muslims in Azerbaijan were influenced and affected by the Persian culture and rule. After 1828, Azerbaijan was incorporated into the Tsarist Empire after a series of wars with Iran. In 1991, Azerbaijan established independence. <ref>Britanicca, "Azerbaijan," in '' https://www.britannica.com/place/Azerbaijan/Administration-and-social-conditions'', accessed 20 Oct, 2021.</ref>
