People From Shusha
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...

History Of Baku
Baku is the capital of Azerbaijan Republic, which was also the capital of Shirvan (during the reigns of Akhsitan I and Khalilullah I), Baku Khanate, Azerbaijan Democratic Republic and Azerbaijan SSR and the administrative center of Russian Baku governorate. Baku is derived from the old Persian ''Bagavan'', which translates to "City of God". A folk etymology explains the name ''Baku'' as derived from the Persian ''Bādkube'' (بادکوبه ), meaning "city where the wind blows", due to frequent winds blowing in Baku. However, the word ''Bādkube'' was invented only in the 16th or 17th century, whereas Baku was founded at least before the 5th century AD. Names in mediaeval sources Starting from the 13th century AD the name of Baku begins to appear in mediaeval European Sources. Spelling of the name varies from ''Vahcüh'' ( Pietro Della Valle), to ''Bakhow, Baca, Bakuie'' and ''Backu.'' On the coins minted by Shirvanshahs name appears as Bakuya. Other explanations V ...
