Extractions: Oil occurs naturally in Azerbaijan, and the fires from open fissures in the ground were worshipped as a key feature of the Zorastrian religion in the area. Oil has a long history in Azerbaijan. In ancient times, Baku oil was used as medicene for humans and camels but was also exported as far as India as fuel. Marco Polo passed through Azerbaijan when following the silk route and noted the reserves of oil around Baku and their strong distinctive smell. Oil production really took off at the end of the nineteenth century. The first drilling of an oil well took place in 1844, ten years before the Americans started drilling in Pennsylvania, and by the turn of the century, Baku was the leading oil producer in the world. Companies owned by the Rothschilds and the Nobels made their fortunes in the area, but pumped back their profits to create a handsome, cosmopolitan city on the Azeri coast which developed into Baku as we know it today. Hitler's drive on Baku during the Second World War was motivated by a desire for its oil, although the city was never captured. Under the Soviet regime, oil contiued to flow and in 1947 the remarkable city of Oily Rocks was constructed offshore. Roads ran over sea level on specially constructed platforms, connecting worksite and housing in a unique location.

Extractions: Columbia University Azerbaijan, a stretch of land southeast of the Caucasus Mountain range, is geographically part of the Middle East, although, it is a border country, not part of the heartland. This borderland quality has been a major influence in shaping the country's history. From the time of ancient Media (8th - 7th century BC), Azerbaijan shared its destiny with Iran and maintained its Iranian character after the conquest by the Arabs in the mid-7th century AD, and the subsequent coming of Islam. Only in the 11th century, with the influx of Oghuz nomadic tribes, did Azerbaijan acquire a large proportion of Turkic inhabitants. The original Iranian population was fused with the immigrants, and gradually the Azeri Turkic language replaced the use of Persian. With the decline of Iran's state authority, new centers of power emerged in Azerbaijan in the form of khanates (principalities). Castle in Ramani Political fragmentation facilitated the conquest by Russia, and the Russo-Iranian wars ended with the 1828 Treaty of Turkmanchai. Azerbaijan was split along the Araz River with a larger part of its inhabitants remaining in Iran. For the northern part of the country, its passing under the rule of a European power, would be seen as a turning point in history. Initially, the Russian motivation was strategic-military, regarding Azerbaijan as a corridor for further expansion into Iran, but in the second half of the 19th century, economic factors came into force. Exploitation of the Azerbaijani oil resources increased rapidly, and the Russian held part of the country experienced lopsided industrialization, centered on the extraction of the mineral wealth around Baku. Oil became for Azerbaijan what the Suez Canal was for Egypt - sometimes a blessing, sometimes a curse, and always an attraction for foreign involvement.

Extractions: Freedom Support Act History Project Harmony was founded in 1985 by three people who shared the idea that personal contact between people of the US and USSR could help ease the tensions of the Cold War. Kathy Cadwell, an educator, Charlie Hosford, an architect, and David Kelley, a lawyer, were low on expertise but all the same were highly dedicated to their goal: to exchange student choir groups between high schools in American and the Soviet Union. Offices History Financial Profile From Directors ... Board of Trustees They dubbed their efforts "Project Harmony" and in Spring 1985, a delegation of US teenagers from Harwood Union High School in Vermont went to Leningrad, USSR. This first performing arts exchange led to more programs. Soon, Project Harmony was initiating youth performing arts exchanges between New Englanders and people from all corners of the USSR. By 1990, the volunteer trio of Project Harmony had grown into a full-time staff of six people with a permanent office in Waitsfield, VT, and a brand new office in Leningrad, USSR.

The Karabakh Armenians have declared independence and seized almost 20% of the country's territory, creating almost 1 million Azerbaijani refugees in the process. Both sides have generally observed a Russian-mediated cease-fire in place since May 1994.

Extractions: The capital of Azerbaijan, Baku is located on the western shore of the Caspian Sea and is one of Azerbaijan's largest cities. The center of Baku is the old town, which is also a fortress. Most of the walls, strengthened afterthe Russian conquest in 1806, survive. This section is picturesque, with its maze of narrow alleys and ancient buildings. Part of a palace, a mosque, and a minaret date from the 11th century. Modern Baku spreads out from the walls, its streets and buildings rising up hills that rim the Bay of Baku. Greater Baku is divided into 11 districts and 48 townships. Among these are townships on islands in the bay and one island built on stilts in the Caspian Sea, 60 miles (100 kilometers) from Baku proper. Today, there are approximately 400,000 Azerbaijani Americans living in the United States, the majority of them being originally from Southern (Iranian) Azerbaijan. California, with a population of 100,000 Azerbaijani-Americans, is home to the largest Azerbaijani-American community in the U.S. The greater Washington, D.C. and New York areas account for the second largest population of Azeris living in the United States. Many Azerbaijanis now living in the United States originally came here for their education; they now occupy many professional positions. Recently, several cultural and social Azerbaijani organizations have emerged in North America that are ac tive in promoting Azerbaijani-American relations.
