People have always been united by spirituality, as moral principles are considered to be superior to other principles.

Heydar Aliyev, the national leader, was a wise elder and experienced head of state who frequently shared his valuable ideas with the people about the fundamental principles that form the moral foundations of our society and provided direction for their preservation and development.
In August 2001, Heydar Aliyev stated that “Each nation has its own mentality. The mentality of our Azerbaijani people is its great wealth. No two nations can have similar values. I say again, the attachment of each nation to itself, to its historical roots, to the national and moral values created by its ancestors is a great factor. We should benefit from the progressive moral values of the world and further develop the cultural level of our people and educate the young generation in a healthier and purer moral mood.”

The army is one of the constituent parts of state forming as the main force for ensuring the territorial integrity of the state.

Although modern Azerbaijan achieved the restoration of state independence in 1991, the creation of the army became possible after national leader Heydar Aliyev returned to power in 1993 at the insistence of the people. After national leader Heydar Aliyev returned to power for the second time, the National Army was formed, urgent measures were taken to establish the regular Armed Forces of Azerbaijan, and military discipline was strengthened. Having an army that is fully capable of protecting the sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan today can be considered one of the unparalleled services rendered by Heydar Aliyev to the people of Azerbaijan.

The formation of Guba as a fruit-growing region is connected with the name of the national leader Heydar Aliyev.

During the years when the great leader led Azerbaijan, the development of horticulture in our republic, especially in Guba, became an integral part of state policy. It was on his initiative that in 1974, the adoption of the government decision on “Measures for the further development of fruit growing based on intensification and specialization” was the beginning of a new stage in the development of horticulture in Azerbaijan.
After this decision, important steps were taken to regulate and further develop the republic’s economy, and within a few years, 14,000 hectares of new intensive gardens were built in Guba. It should be recalled that until that time there was no such intensive garden area in any region of Azerbaijan.
The national leader invited experts from former Soviet republics to Guba. In 1983-1984, an average of 450-500 quintals of crops were collected from each hectare of gardens. In 1984, Guba gardeners managed to collect more than 100 thousand tons of fruits for the first time in the history of the region.
In the first years following the restoration of independence, when agrarian reforms were started in our country at the initiative of the great leader Heydar Aliyev, there were 37 collective farms, state farms and other state enterprises of this type in Guba. As a result of the reform, 13,424 hectares of orchards belonging to those enterprises were transferred to the private ownership of citizens. Currently, there are about 17 thousand hectares of orchards in Guba. 13 thousand hectares of it are apple orchards.

Ölkəmizdə muzey işinin təşəkkülü və inkişafı Ümummilli lider Heydər Əliyevin adı ilə bağlıdır.

Ölkəmizdə muzey işinin təşəkkülü və inkişafı Ümummilli lider Heydər Əliyevin adı ilə bağlıdır. Məhz onun təşəbbüsü ilə 1969-cu ildə “Respublikada muzey işinin yaxşılaşdırılması haqqında” qərar qəbul edilib. Bu sənəd ölkəmizdə muzeylərin inkişafına, maddi-texniki bazasının möhkəmləndirilməsinə, onların şəbəkəsinin genişləndirilməsinə təkan verib. Daha sonra 1980-ci ildə muzey işinə dair növbəti qərar Respublika Mədəniyyət Nazirliyinin Muzeylər İdarəsi, Muzey İşi üzrə Elmi-metodiki Mərkəz, Muzey Ekspozisiyalarının Bədii Tərtibatı Emalatxanası, Muzey Sərvətləri və Xatirə Əşyalarının Bədii Bərpa Mərkəzlərinin yaradılması üçün qəbul olunmuşdur.
1980-1982 ci illlərdə Respublikada 30-a yaxın muzeylə fəaliyyətə başlayan və hazırda ölkəmizin bütün bölgələrini əhatə edən Tarix-diyarşünaslıq muzeyləri məhz Ulu öndər Heydər Əliyevin şəxsi təşəbbüsü sayəsində yaradılmışdır. Azərbaycan mədəniyyətinin Üzeyir Hacıbəyli, Hüseyn Cavid, Cəlil Məmmədquluzadə, Məmməd Səid Ordubadi, Cəfər Cabbarlı, Bülbül, Səməd Vurğun, Niyazi və digər nəhəng simaların memorial-xatirə və ev muzeyləri onun iradəsi ilə yaradılmışdır.
İkinci dəfə hakimiyyətə qayıdışından sonra muzeylərin fəliyyətinə xüsusi diqqət yetirən Ümummilli lider Heydər Əliyev muzey işinin müasir prinsiplər əsasında inkişaf etdirilməsi məqsədilə 24 mart 2000-ci ildə “Muzeylər haqqında” qanun qəbul etmişdir. Bu qanun Azərbaycan Respublikasında muzeylərin fəaliyyətinin təşkilati-hüquqi və iqtisadi əsaslarını müəyyən edir, onlarla bağlı münasibətləri tənzimləyir. Muzeylərin qorunub saxlanılması və milli irsimizin təbliği siyasəti Prezident İlham Əliyev tərəfindən də uğurla davam etdirilir. Bu gün Azərbaycan muzeyləri milli-dəyərlərimizin, milli irsimizin mühafizəsini həyata keçirir və ideoloji məkan olaraq azərbaycançılıq məfkurəsini uğurla təbliğ edir.

Fictional "Armenian genocide" and historical truth

Armenians have always “hunted” for land in the territories of other nations in order to create a national institution for themselves. This attempt did not bring them any success for a long time. Armenian authors themselves say that this ethnos is a society born from a hybrid of different ethnic groups in Mesopotamia before BC. Then Armenians gradually began to appear in the Asia Minor peninsula. Trying to show themselves as “hosts”, these creatures headed to the Balkans. However, they behaved inappropriately there as well, and were expelled from there due to their misbehavior. The soft-hearted Turkish-Muslim people gave them the possible shelter, even though they were on mountains and rocks. After that, the migration of Armenians to the South Caucasus began gradually, from time to time. April 24 – where does fictional “Armenian Genocide” day come from? Armenian author Akop Keshishyan evaluates it as follows: “We were all saddened by the declaration of April 24 as the day of the Armenian massacre by the Orthodox Church in Beirut, incited by the Greeks. Let us inform you that the term “Armenian genocide” was coined by the Armenian church in the 50s of the last century and later turned into a big campaign with the support of the Armenian lobby. The pro-Armenian forces try to take advantage of those events as a tool even today. In fact, at that time, there were not as many Armenians as were allegedly killed in Turkey. Although some Armenian historians say that this number is 600 thousand, and some 1 million, Russian sources write that this number is 2 million, knowing that this is a lie. The variety of figures given by Armenian and Russian writers regarding the “Armenian genocide” of 1915 is a clear proof that this event is a artifice. Turkish scientists have conducted a lot of serious research in the last ten years. One fact can be cited from these studies that the names, surnames and documents of many Armenians, whose names were mentioned during the resettlement movement in 1915, presented by Armenians, were officially released from other places in 1916-1917-1918. However, the Armenians wrote them as having died in the events of April 1915. But we must not forget one fact that if 1.5 million Armenians had been killed at that time, there would have been one or two Armenians left in the world today.”
Fictional “Armenian genocide” never happened in Turkey in 1915. This is nothing but a manifestation of the jealous attitude and prejudice of the major world powers towards the growing economic power and international influence of the Turkic world, towards the Turkish race, and an Armenian fabrication!

This historical monument belonging to the period of Caucasian Albania, belonging to the IV-IX centuries, is located at the bottom of the mountain in the village of Kosalar, Lachin.

However, traces of these underground passages that existed inside the castle were not discovered in the period before the Armenian occupation. But in 2009, Armenian archaeologists discovered three wells inside the complex to go down to this passage.

According to legend, the Sheikh’s body was buried in a stone box, in front of the southern window of the tomb. N. Khanikov, the first Russian scientist who managed to read the inscription in the mausoleum, said that the tomb of Sheikh Babi Yaqub was built in 1271-1272 by the order of Mashadi Babi Yaqub ibn Saad. From Mashadikhanim Nemat’s translation, it was determined that the construction of this holy tomb for the ascetic, perfect Sheikh Bab Yaqub ibn Ismail Qur Khar was ordered in 672 of the Hijri calendar (1273-1274 AD). The inscriptions on the tombstone have been translated. It is written there that; This holy tomb was built for Zahid Kamal, Sheikh Bab Yaqub ibn Ismail Qur Khar. 1 tomb and a damaged minaret remain from the tomb complex. The monument was seriously damaged as a result of large-scale provocations by the Armenian Armed Forces during the fighting in Karabakh on September 29, 2020.
