Azerbaijani nationalism

Azerbaijani nationalism (Azerbaijani: Azərbaycan milliyətçiliyi), also referred to as Azerbaijanism (Azerbaijani: Azərbaycançılıq) originated as a result of the Pan-Turkist agenda expressed during the October Revolution and historiography under the Soviet Union.

Azerbaijani nationalism is characterized by irredentist and expansionist territorial claims to regions in Iran, Nagorno-Karabakh, and Armenia.
