Nagorno-Karabakh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1819 words) |
 | Karabakh passed to Imperial Russia by the Treaty of Gulistan in 1813, before the rest of Russian-controlled Armenian territories were incorporated into the Empire in 1828. |
| In 1822, the Karabakh khanate was dissolved, and the area became part of the Russian province that later formed Azerbaijan. |
| The politics of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh are so intermingled that a former president of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, Robert Kocharian, became first the prime minister (1997) and then the president of Armenia (1998 to the present). |
