The Republic of Azerbaijan is a country at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia. In 1918, the independent Azerbaijani Republic is declared and became the first democratic state in the Muslim-oriented world. But in 1920, Azerbaijan turn into a part of Transcaucasian Soviet Federative Republic. The independence was restored only in 1991. Since then, conflicts and tensions remain in this country and despite its increased influence in the wider region, poverty and corruption continue to overshadow the country’s development.
