Nagorno-Karabakh Still Not Internationally Recognized As Its Own Country

SHUSHI PROVINCE, NAGORNO-KARABAKH - MAY 4: The eastern part of the town of Shushi, which was completely destroyed during the war, is seen May 4, 2004 in Nagorno-Karabakh, Azerbaijan. Shushi is the second largest town in Karabakh with about 20 thousand people. Before the war 50 percent of the population was Azeri, living along side and peacefully with its Christian Orthodox Karabastis neighbors. Nagorno-Karabakh is a fertile, mountainous area of 4,400 square kilometers in the southern Caucasus situated inside what is internationally recognized as Azerbaijan. The name, a Russian-Turkish-Persian compound, shows the region's complex history and means "Mountainous Black Garden." The Karabakh Armenians call the region Artsakh or "Strong Forest." Azerbaijan has yet to resolve its conflict with Armenia over the Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh enclave, which is largely Armenian populated. (Photo by Jonathan Alpeyrie/Getty Images)
