Azeris in Georgia
Encyclopedia
According to the 2002 census, there are 284,761 ethnic Azeris living in Georgia
. They comprise 6.5% of Georgia's population (being its largest ethnic minority), inhabiting mostly rural parts of the country, mostly in Kvemo Kartli
, Kakheti
, Shida Kartli
and Mtskheta-Mtianeti
. There is a large Azeri community in the capital city of Tbilisi
and smaller communities in other regions.
There were some tensions in late 1980s in the Azeri-populated regions of Georgia, however they never escalated to armed clashes. Since Georgia regained its independence
in 1991, many Azeris along with other minorities have faced a problem of social disintegration
and underrepresentation in country's legislative, executive and judicial powers. Unlike urban Azeris of Tbilisi and Rustavi
, rural Azeri population for the most part lacks knowledge of the official language
- Georgian
, which makes it harder for them to participate in many social areas. A majority of Azeris in Georgia choose to pursue secondary education in their native tongue. Graduates willing to be admitted to post-secondary institutions hence tend to leave for other countries, mainly Azerbaijan, where post-secondary education is available in either Azeri
or Russian
. Such isolation is furthered by the fact that many rural Azeris prefer to read newspapers published in Azeri and set up satellite dishes in order to be able to watch channels of neighbouring Azerbaijan, or establish their own community TV channels (such as Ellada TV, which functioned in Gardabani
in 1995-99).
Azeris are currently represented in the 235-seat Parliament of Georgia
by three deputies. Being the biggest inhibitory factor, language barrier remains a major issue among Georgia's Azeri population. The government has launched various programs and projects in order to help Azeris integrate into the political life of the country.
tribes settled in southern Georgia. To oppose being subjected to the Seldjuk Empire, Georgians allied with the Cumans
(a group of Kipchak tribes to the north of the Caucasus
) thus allowing for more Turkic migration into the region. Constant influx of Turkic tribes continued until the late Middle Ages. Their further consolidation led to the formation of the Azeri community. The area populated by ethnic Azeris today is historically known as Borchali (which in the form Burjoglu was originally the name of a Kipchak tribe that settled here in the twelfth century).
The city of Tiflis is known as one of the important centres for Azeris' cultural development. Molla Vali Vidadi

was being published in Tiflis in 1906–1917. Azeri newspapers from earlier periods (such as Ziya, Keshkul and Sharg-i rus in the nineteenth and early twentieth century) were also printed in the publishing houses of Tiflis. The Transcaucasian Teachers Seminary
which trained professional teachers for secular primary Azeri schools was located in Gori
. Folk singer Bulbuljan among others spent 30 years of his life living and performing in Tiflis. Tiflis was also the hometown and academic locale to some of the most prominent Azerbaijani singers such as Rashid Behbudov
and Shovkat Mammadova
(the first Azeri female opera singer, 1897–1981), as well as to the first professional Azeri female painter Geysar Kashiyeva
(1893–1972), and the first Azeri female pianist Khadija Gayibova
(1883–1938).
