There is no connection between nowdays Ayerbaijan Republic and the Caucasian Albania. Caucasian Albania, in Armenian texts knows as "Aghvanq" in Roman and Greek sources as "Albania" (nowdays refered as "Caucasian Albania to distinguish from Albania in the Balkans) is an acient state populated by the native people from the Caucasus. They spoke the Aghvan language and were Christians. Nowdays Ayerbaijani people are turkic nation, migrated from Central Asia and mixed with some Iranians. They speak a turkic language and follow Islam. There is no cultural and historical connection between the two states. It would be better to rename the article as Caucasian Albania, since Azerbaijan didn't exist in anitiquity and it's arrogant to show some connection that doesn't exist. It's the same as calling Turkey and Byzantine as the same only becuase the geographical areas are the same, ignoring the huge cultural differences. With all the facts provided in this article, there is no name in acient sources known as "Ayerbaijan". The origin of the name is from 1918, when the Republic of Azerbaijan was founded. Stop the turkic propaganda. Azerbaijan and Aderbaijani people don't have acient history. HripS3 (talk) 14:05, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
