ITMB Armenia & Azerbaijan

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.)

Why map Armenia and Azerbaijan together?

• Interconnected Territories: The two countries have to be mapped as one and visited as one. Internally, the Armenians tend to inhabit the western third and portions of the center, while the Azeri occupy most of the remaining areas. There are also enclaves of Avars, Lezgins, Cachuri, and Talys in specific areas.
• Complex Road Networks: A significant challenge in mapping these countries is that many roads, previously main transportation routes, were severed during the nationalistic creation of both entities. Despite this, both sides insist that these now non-usable roads are still the main or national highways. Determining which roads are open, which have new by-pass routes, and which are closed is exceptionally difficult to record.
