Thank you for quite an impartial video. The traditional dance of all three counties in the Caucasus region is just absolutely exquisite!

[Lt.colonel]

Well as Georgian i would see all these 3 states united together! We need each other! This region always thrived when it was united! We all are brothers there! We are just thrown to tear each other because if we are together this region would give us more power, politicly, economically, in every aspect! That’s why they killed Transcaucasia idea in couple of days! That’s why they destroyed Yugoslavia, imagine them united again and not fighting between each other! They would be above british in economics, ah guys don’t mind me i am just a dreamer

Georgia is very important for those countries as a transfer.

[Odrysian]

"Caucasus" or as they are also known- Balkans 2.0

[Samirustem]

To say turkey capitalized on Azerbaijan's oil is not really accurate. Azerbaijan had initiated all the regional projects actively trying to make turkey interested to decrease our dependence from Russia. Azerbaijan also invests big sums in turkey to keep them interested in region. Same with many international companies who are involved to make sure big nations profit from our wealth and are not interested in destabilization of region.

As someone who has been in Georgia, Azerbaijan and İran all l can say is a war can happen anytime specially between Azerbaijan and Armenia

[Miko-kyqu]

Now in Armenia everybody knows that russia is not our partner. Now we have good relationships with France and India.

[OsbornsConcise]

The history of Azerbaijan is one of the most misunderstood, unknown and obscure histories on the planet. Yet, this country still stands with its very unique identity and culture. Which means that it has a long history

[ConnMtenor]

Azerbaijan also has a strong relationship with Israel. Which makes things even more complicated.

[noname-usci]

Who told u that Azerbaijanis were not in Caucasus before 11th century? Educate yourself Kypchak tribes lived here from early medieval age around 5th century Sabirs Khazars all ruled Caucasus at some point.

0:35 Lmao.

I'd like to add that your description of Armenia's foreign relations at 2:45 might create a perception among some people that Armenia is an anti-western country - which isn't the case. Armenia diplomatically gets along with pretty much every country on Earth, with the exception of Turkey and Azerbaijan (& maybe Pakistan), of course.

Anyways, this is a pretty well made video about the region - kudos to you!

[lowriderbs]

As an Azerbaijani, I’m happy that the World knows Caucasus exists lmao

[ZarexianMapper]

I just noticed yes you indeed explained the history, internal problems, relations between the three nations and which nation gets influenced by which power, the demographics so bascially their general situation very well but since the title is "What makes the Caucasus nations so important" I hoped that would be the video about. I mean yes you did mention the energy supply via Azerbaijan but that felt more like a sidenote. I mean it's still a good video but the title doesn't fit with what the video is actually about.

[megapangolin]

Fascinating, informative and balanced video. If only the BBC could be so professional. I really enjoyed listening to your narration and have liked and now subscribed. Well done.

[s.tsora.]

Thank you for pronouncing Ossetia correctly 😄👍

[RegularFinnishPerson]

Your narration has really improved a bunch! Great video Mac, keep it up.

[AliyarGasanov]

Meaning? Azerbaijan had the Empire of Atabeys, Kara Koyunlu, Ak Koyunlu, Safavids and Qajars.
I'm sorry if I misunderstood (English is so-so)

Please make a video on Finland

I'm disappointed than no one recognises the North Caucasus. There are many ancien nations as in south Caucasus back in 1763 we still have been independent from anyone. But we couldn't regain independence when USSR collapsed, which is unfortunate. But we are and we will be till the end of the world.

[Schmusbek]

The bad thing is: The countries around Georgia are always raging in Georgia. Then Georgia always has to settle disputes like this. And when we need help against Russia, everyone turns away from us. Wow!
