The Brief Independence of Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan I THE GREAT WAR 1919
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 ноя 2019
- Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan used the power vacuum after the 1917 revolution in Russia and after the collapse of the Central Powers in 1918 to gain their independence. But the Caucasus region was of vital strategic importance to the new Russian regime, to the British and to the Turks.

Hello From Georgia, really glad someone is covering more of our history, so people can know other than it's the birthplace of Stalin.
Are you proud of him? As a Georgian? Because of he was from Georgia?
@@enesamederel He was Georgian only by blood, as the video pointed out he didn't really care for his country(or for any for that matter), Stalin was a monster who was responsible for untold amounts of death, so no, i'm not least bit of proud of him.
@@enesamederel we had in history countless of great people, heroes, we can be proud of, and Stalin didn't worth even a piece of dirt from their boots.
My bad. I kinda felt like you proud of him. I think you should write down there "more than" instead of "other than". That's why I understood like this.
@@enesamederel Sorry, should've been more attentive.
Nice to see someone covering this often-forgotten topic.
101 years ago the armistice on the Western Front was signed. And we all learned in school how the war was over and the "interwar period" started. As some of you have realized from our 16 episodes released this year, 1919 was anything but a quiet and peaceful year. There was much continued conflict and war around the world, fought with the same equipment, uniforms and soldiers that fought in 1918. This period doesn't get covered as much as the 1914-1918 period but we hope you enjoy the history nonetheless. The last two episodes were a bit shorter, initially we thought about combining them into one but that didn't feel right and makes it easier to navigate for you. The next two episodes in November will be longer and more detailed again: The Treaty of Neuilly (next week) and the Hungarian-Romanian War in 2-3 weeks. Thanks Flo
Good Work
some extra english sources
For Armenia 1918-1922 nothing beats Richard G. Hovannisian, "The Republic of Armenia" volumes I,II,III,IV. Because he relied heavily on Kazim Karabekir's book "Our War of Indepdenence" for the Turkish pov, he is also one of the few English sources for elements of Karebekir's polemic.
For Georgia 1918-1921, I have heard very good things about Eric Lee "The Experiment: Georgia's Forgotten Revolution, 1918-21"
some correction. They never gave de jure recognition to the three republics. Your source is wrong on that. Hovannisian contains the whole sordid affair. They were given de-facto standing, but never officially recognized. This is primarily due to French opposition. The reason was that Denikin was not willing to recognize either Azerbaijan or Georgia (he was more willing to tolerate a independent Armenia state) . So as long as the Entente was committed to his support, it could not get too close to the Caucasian republics. Also Denikin was for most of the period that main source of military support for Armenia (together with a one-off British and Greek arms and equipment shipment in 1919-the Greek included your familiar Canadian Ross rifles). Armenia connections to Denikin made their relations with Georgia terrible.

Samegrelo/Megrelia is one of the 9 regions of Georgia, it is part of an administrative division of the country and no way megrelians are ethnic minorities, they are georgians who live in the region of Samegrelo.

Which minority group in Megrelia revolted against Georgia? Never heard of that one.????
Bolshiviks
Soviet Russian signed a Moscow treaty with Georgia in 1920 recognizing its independence and recognizing that Abkhazia and so called South Osetia are under Georgian jurisdiction. But in 1921 Russia violated that treaty and occupied Georgia.
Russia probably holds world record for violating the most treaties
South Ossetia never existed before 1921
Are you surprised!?
Russians are well known gentlemen....😉🤫😖
That's imperialism for you man
Lekso Lee but still Georgia was its own republic in the USSR and not part of Russia
100 years Britain is always the same " no friends only interests'
7:20 You have a mistake here. Armenia fell to Soviet control in Nov-Dec 1920, not 1919.
Thanks for your explication of this confusing time. My Grandfather lived through this period, and participated in the events. Fighting Turks, escaping from Bolsheviks, etc. I had heard oral history before. It matches up with your narrative. Thanks again!
This is the first video I've watched on your channel. Fantastic.
Nice, been waiting for this one! Cheers
Lack of info on Georgia is disturbing.
Example: Not only independence of Azerbaijan was declared in Tbilisi, but also of Armenia
Both on 28th of May, 2 days after Georgian.
Also map is skewed, that map is from 1937 of Soviet Republics (borders of independent republics was a bit different - more in line of 16-19th century borders)
No. Armenia was declared independent not in Tbilisi but Batum.
@@gagvardanyan6580 No. Both were done on the same event on the same session

Greetings from Georgia, keep up, you guys are awesome!
Thanks for mentioning this. Not many people know about it
This is superb. And more topical than I would have liked to see it.
Not to brown nose it too hard, but Jesse you are a great host and writer! Wouldn't have thought this channel could sustain itself after the end of the war, but I was wrong and I'm glad I was
Thanks a lot for the encouragement, it's a great momtivator to read comments like this one!
If it matters for future decision making of the channel: I personally don't mind if there isn't enough footage/photographs to make an episode. Filling in the gaps with maps, quotes or heck, just Jesse talking for long periods of time are all totally fine by me. Happy to stare at a black screen to hear about all this!
Appreciate that.
I'm glad to see you upload more
Thank you. This is important to remember.
The entire video series is marvelous! Thank you for the tremendous effort and creativity!
Awesome episode, sad that you couldn't find many pictures despite your efforts. Also, will you cover Mongolia and the Bogd Khanate? Or the warlords era in China (after all China had an important role during and the post-WW1 era)?
Great video fellas
Finally someone covering this area. Nice too see and informative.
In the U.S. in particular schoolbook history tends to ignore everything happening in Europe/Asia after WW1 ended. Then again it barely acknowledges the Spanish Flu. Because Prohibition! Oooh. The Volstad Act! Thrilling and world shaking!
Thanks guys for digging deep in EVERY direction. It makes me really appreciate your channel.
Brian O'Neil here in Georgia 🇬🇪it's much different, we learn world history much more than our's
To be fair, Prohibition pretty much inundated the United States in a wave of corruption that hasn't really ended till VERY recently. A part of why many people hate Unions here is that the mafia had everyone on the take. If you started threatening them they could shut down the whole country by shutting down the docks and the Teamsters union (both rail and trucking). They have pulled strikes in the past and it usually worked. On the outside people saw some sort of agreement get reached but internally there's a bunch of lawyers and mob guys fighting tooth and nail against the local police and another lawyer to get their stuff sorted. If you look at declassified documents from the F.B.I it's pretty much the reason they were invented. They are a national investigative agency that has more power than the local police. Expensive, yes but it also helped keep legit cops and business owners from being mowed down in a dumping ground somewhere. A single cop can't be held responsible for reforming a whole department (and you wouldn't want them to stay in power afterwards) it would be a mess.

8 января 1977 года в Москве прогремело три взрыва - два на ведущей к Кремлю улице 25 Октября (нынешняя Никольская) и один в метро, на перегоне между станциями "Измайловская" и "Первомайская". Это была самая крупная террористическая вылазка за последние 50 лет. Организаторов удалось задержать только спустя 10 месяцев во время подготовки очередного теракта на Курском вокзале. Это были жители Армении Затикян, Степанян и Багдасарян, члены армянской националистической группировки.
Lands of my forefathers. Thank you for this one.
Terrific video
The borders with Turkey are incorrect. The borders were different during this brief independence compared to the modern border. They didn't change until 1921 of the Treaty of Kars. Both for Georgia and Armenia.
Yes, even until today Turkey violates several treaties, it's eastern border occupies land that belongs to Armenia. Lake Van, Mt. Ararat, and Erzurum was going to be given to Armenia during the paris peace conference.
@@ArthaxtaDaVince777just like the rest our your territory being given to you guys by others. When will you greedy people stop claiming territory and start building peaceful relations with your neighbours, instead of constant propaganda and conflicts?
@@tujueinternational1521 Nobody gave us territory buddy, we fought both Bolsheviks and Young Turks to claim our territory, then declared independence from the USSR and kept the land. None of it is your land.
@Kadir Garip in which statement of the Paris peace conference does it say that those lands were left to Azerbaijan???
@@ArthaxtaDaVince777 Ottoman government accepted those terms, not Republic of Turkey. A new government was formed that rebelled against Ottomans, refused the Treaty of Sevres and fought against Allied powers to enforce a new treaty.
Turkey can't violate such treaty because she did not accept such treaty. Collapsed Ottoman Empire did.
Please do a video about Belarus and what happened to them during/after WW1. Thank you for all the great content!
so so well done bravo you take no sides
great video
Let me just leave this here and then proceed to watch the rest of the video.
Anarchy and chauvinism have returned to the Caucasus with a vengeance in October 2020. And it can all be traced back to this episode in history.
The episode is short, but very little about the histories of the region is sweet.
What was the extent of military cooperation between Kemalist Turkey and the Bolsheviks in the post-Great War period between 1918 and the early 1920s?
The city of Kars was given to Kemalist Turkey when the Soviets were drawing the borders in the Caucasus in return for Batumi. Nakhijevan and Karabakh were also settled in favor of Azerbaijan when the Caucasian SSRs were born.
@@hakobbasilfan4644 Well saying Kemalist Turkey is rather wrong. Since there are just a Representative Committee which assumes to be part of the Ottoman Empire and serve as Ottoman Assembly in dire situation. Yet they still try to form Imperial Assembly back in Istanbul. After the closing of the Assembly by the Entente powers in Istanbul(mainly by Britain) after they formed (also in 1920), they form the Grand National Assembly in 23 April 1920. Mustafa Kemal (Atatürk) wasn't in control of everything even though he is the leading figure of the Representative Committee. He has the total power after The formation of Grand National Assembly and being elected as it's president.
@@hakobbasilfan4644 Thank you for the detailed breakdown of border changes. Did the Soviets provide weapons to Ataturk's forces fighting in Anatolia?
Because Bolsheviks were desperate for any international recognition so their foreign policy was - u recognize us - we help you. Also Bolsheviks hated everything Russian so they were pleased to help the traditional Russian enemy to break from the Russian Imperial past.
@@leksolee6135 interesting. It seems like the Soviet Union reached an "understanding" with modern Turkey even if the two nations weren't friends.
Which minority group in Megrelia revolted against Georgia? Never heard of that one.
It was quite common for Bolsheviks to go to local Georgian villages and recruit farmers to become Bolsheviks.
After that the farmers revolted in several regions, to be later crushed by the Georgian army. So i think that's what he meant with minority group revolting.

Hello. Thank you for this video. I am a subscriber to this channel a very long time and happy to see the video about Georgia. I am a political historian from Georgia. I would like to point out several issues which I found within the video. I hope authors of this video do not get me wrong.
- In the video, you mentioned that there was a minority revolt in Mingrelia. This is nonsense. There was and is no such minority in Georgia. Every singe Mingrelian is Georgian and it is a great offence to Mingrelians to call them minority or non-Georgian.
- Georgian map has a problem. Georgia also controlled territories north-eastern parts of Turkey. Beyond that, there was a neutral zone between Georgia and Armenia which had great importance between the relations of two countries.
- German Army. This was a big one. Summer 1918 German forces entered into Georgia and stationed into Tbilisi (Tiflis). They stayed in Tbilisi for several months. Even before this expedition German influence on the Georgian army was tangible. There were several thousand Georgians lived in Germany and with the help of them, pro-German propaganda was great in the south caucasian frontline. Moreover, the German minority lived in the southern parts of Georgia and parts of Tbilisi (Tiflis), which had an impact on Georgian politics.
- And last but not least is Italy. After the WW1 Italy was the one who got Georgia as a mandate, but the Italian army did not reach Georgia, because of internal strife and Soviet pressure, even though Georgian government was informed about that.
What about Georgian-Ossetian conflict at that time?

As a Persian Azeri, I’m curious to how Iran/Persia reacted to the Republic of Azerbaijan’s independence, a province that had historically been part of Iran, not to mention more Azeris live in Iran and the ruling Qajar dynasty were Azeri too. Great episode as always 👍🏼
Well Iran was an Monarchist society.. So having a parliamentary democracy on it's borders populated with similar people would have been seen as a dangerous example for the Iranian common people by the elites in Iran.. I am sure the Iranian leadership would have preferred Azerbaijan to be under the rule of Moscow, under a communist dictatorship, then being a functioning democratic parliamentary democracy..
Iran historically part of Azerbaijan.
Xəyal Gülüşov, Brother that is like saying the Soviet Union was part of Azerbaijan when it was the opposite. I’m proud to be an Azeri, but let’s not twist history for no reason.

Do you know that in Armenia you cant reach the records. I ask everyone “Is this situation make Armenia unfair?” You Said that Turks captured eastern Anotolia. But Eastern Anatolia already belongs Turks over 1050 years. Please dont make your selves like a fool and blinders.
