Eastern Armenia in the Last Decades of Persian Rule, 1807-1828. A Political and Socio-Economic Study of the Khanate of Erevan on the Eve of the Russian Conquest
Husayn Qulī Khān Qazvīnī, Sardār of Erevan: A Portrait of a Qajar Administrator
Having lost Transcaucasia to the Russians some one-hundred-and-fifty years ago, Persian scholars have ignored the history of this region which once was a part of Iran under the Qajars. Russian and Armenian sources, although numerous, have tended to emphasize Russian rule in the area. They have also failed to utilize primary sources, such as those in archives, have neglected to record the favorable aspects, and instead have concentrated on a blank…
