Armenians in Azerbaijan
Armenians have had a longstanding historical presence in the Shamakhi District (Armenian: Շամախի). From the 16th century up until the 18th century, Armenians formed the majority population of the capital, Shamakhi.[1][2] Armenians retained a significant presence in the Shamakhi district until the First Nagorno-Karabakh war, which resulted in the forced displacement of the remaining unassimilated Shamakhi Armenians to Armenia.[3]
