BESKRIVELSE:
It is unfortunate that these two neighbouring countries dislike each other so
much, because both are lovely countries to visit. Due to the way the two became
separate political entities, both have enclaves surrounded by the other and it
is impossible to map one without mapping both (unless one wipes out roads
leading through the other's territory, resuming the roads and towns once it
returns to the politically correct entity. The two have to be mapped as one, and
visited as one; internally, the Armenians tend to inhabit the western third and
portions of the centre, the Azeri most of the rest of the area, with enclaves of
Avars, Lezgins, Cachuri, and Talys in specific areas. A second problem with
mapping the two countries is that each insists that roads that used to be main
transportation conduits were severed during the nationalistic creation of both
entities, but both sides insist that these non-usable roads are still the main,
or national, highways. Which ones are open, which ones have new by-pass routes,
and which are closed is exceptionally difficult to record. We have done our
best, and in our opinion, our map is more realistic than others on the market.
Of course, the map shows points of interest, museums, churches of note, historic
sites, airports etc. Detailed inset maps of Yerevan (capital of Armenia) and
Baku (Azerbaijan) are included.
