Informative thread deciphering Armenian lies: There were no Armenian settlements in this region until Armenian Catholicism was transferred from Cilicia to the South Caucasus – Echmiadzin in 1441.
One of the four beylerbeyliks created in the first half of the XVI century in the territory of Azerbaijan by the Safavids state was Karabakh beylerbeylik with its center being Ganja.
Panahali bey established the Karabakh khanate in 1748. The khanate's population was mainly Turkic Javanshir, Bayat, Ziyadoglus, Twenty-Fours, the Thirties, Kabirli, Kolan and Baharli tribes. #KarabakhisAzerbaijan#DontBelieveArmenia
Under the Gulustan Peace Treaty signed on October 12, 1813, between the Russian Empire and the Qajarid States, Karabakh khanate was included into the territory of Russia like the other northern khanates of Azerbaijan.
Population census was conducted in Karabakh in 1823. Out of 20095 families, 15729 were Azerbaijani families, and 4336 were registered as Armenian families, although they originally were Gregorianized and Armenianized Albanians.
Nagorno Karabakh is not a contested territory. It is internationally recognized territory of #Azerbaijan occupied and ethnically cleansed by Armenia.
Unfortunately it was Martinios’s and thousand other Armenians’ conscious choice to reside in the illegally occupied territories of #Azerbaijan at the expense of ethnic cleansing of around 1 million Azerbaijanis from their homeland.

Have you done your homework a little bit, you would have known that #Azerbaijan has a track record in hosting decently and on highest level possible the big-scale international sporting and other events.
Yet you have consciously chosen to pile up chaotically all the unverified allegations and distortions of history possible.
