Border conflict between Azerbaijan-Armenia escalates

[QUOTE=The Duke;45606037]Both Armenia and Azerbaijan are members of the Council of Europe and are considered to simultaneously be in Eastern Europe and Western Asia due to both being west of the Urals and partially north of the Caucasus mountains.[/QUOTE]

I wouldn't say Armenia is in europe, however a good portion of Abkhazian Georgia is.

Georgia probably shouldn't have started the war if they wanted to avoid the permanent partition of their territory.

Jesus fuck why did the USSR make the borders such a fuck up all they had to do was a population exchange.

Divide and conquer. Both territories don't want to be Soviet, so you change their borders a bit so they're squabbling with each other rather than Moscow.

On top of that, the Soviets saw both as provinces of their own country and didn't believe they would have independence one day.

It's what imperialist countries do.

Many people think the Georgians started it, but Russia invaded first (yes tensions with Georgia/Russia were crippling on the matter of Ossetia/Abkhazia, but let's not forget who took it to the next level)
