Umma Khan V (Avar: Кӏудияв Гӏумахан; 1761 or 1762 – March 22, 1801), also known as Omar Khan and nicknamed the Great or the Mad, was the ruler (nutsal) of the Avar Khanate from 1774 to 1801. Under Umma Khan, the Avar Khanate expanded its borders both by subordinating the Avar free societies, and at the expense of neighboring territories. He was paid tribute by the Georgian king Erekle II, Derbent, Quba, Baku, Shirvan, Shaki khans and the Ottoman pasha of Akhaltsikhe.
