Azerbaijani nationalism

Azerbaijani nationalism

Azerbaijani nationalism was relatively slow to develop under the communists. "Rather than imagining themselves as part of a continuous national tradition, like the Georgians and Armenians, the Muslims of Transcaucasia saw themselves as part of the larger Muslim world, the umma." [The Forsaken People: Case Studies of the Internally Displaced - Page 257 by Roberta Cohen, Francis Mading Deng]

After the end of the World War II, Azerbaijani nationalism was controlled by lessening the influence of Islam. [Energy and Security in the Caucasus - Page 14 by Emmanuel Karagiannis]
