Since the beginning of the 20th century, dense masses of Muslim population lived in the Yerevan province and adjacent regions, such as Elizavetpol (Gandzak) and other areas. In this situation, due to the revolutionary conditions in Russia, bloody and uncompromising inter-ethnic conflicts broke out; the relative tranquility of general coexistence was violated, and an atmosphere of distrust and hostility took place between nations and ethnic groups. The collapse of the Russian Empire served as a new impetus for extremely dangerous developments, and the national consultations convened with the participation of Turkish and Armenian national-political figures ended fruitlessly. This was a consequence not only of the region’s motley national composition but also of the conflicting and irreconcilable interests of various forces that could not be overcome. The anarchy contributed to the deepening of the chaos, as a result of which the undertaken reforms were not implemented, promises remained unfulfilled, and the Tsarist authorities themselves incited this conflict, often adopting the role of an observer while anticipating the desired scenario. Occupying large territories, the Muslim population obstructed the establishment of normal communication between Armenian regions in every way. In particular, the road between Yerevan and Daralagyaz passed through Muslim villages, which was the reason for frequent attacks and murders of Armenians on the Daralagyaz roads. The situation was the same in the Davalu region, which, being cut off from Gharakhay (or Karabakh), could not transport any goods beyond. Under such conditions, to assist in opening the roads, the Government of the Republic of Armenia (RA) was forced to appeal for help to the Allied British Command. The years 1918-1920 were marked by anti-state actions by Muslims living in the territory of the RA. Refusing to accept the authority of the RA, they constantly kept the government in turmoil. Turkey and Azerbaijan stood behind the rebellious regions, supplying weapons and financing the insurgents. The RA had both successes and failures in the fight against the rebellious regions.}, title={Muslim Movements And Interethnic Processes In The Republic Of Armenia In 1918–1920}, type={էլեկտրոնային հանդես}, keywords={History}, }
