Khanates of the Iranian Azerbaijan

Iran's khanates in the Caucasus and the Iranian Azerbaijan, 18th-19th centuries.[1]

The Khanates of the Iranian Azerbaijan were various principalities established by Iran on their territories in the Iranian Azerbaijan from the late Safavid to the Qajar dynasty, as opposed to those they established to the north of the Aras river (see; Khanates of the Caucasus). The Khanates were mostly ruled by Khans of Turkic Azerbaijanis origin.[2]
