Hey there. My company is sending me to Azerbaijan. I don't even have a cue where that is. Can you help me gather some information? 
 Azerbaijan is a country in the South Caucasus region of Eurasia. 
 That would be why I have no clue about it because I am still confused. What can you tell me about the geography? 
 It straddles Western Asia and Eastern Europe. 
 Can you tell me what countries surround it? 
 Russia is to the north, Georgia and Armenia to the west, Iran to the south, and the Caspian Sea to the east. 
 Great thank you. What can you tell me about Azerbaijan's history ? 
 An interesting fact is that the number of ethnic Azerbaijanis in Iran is far higher than those in neighboring Azerbaijan. 
 That is interesting. And what can you tell me about the History? 
 All Caucasian territories were incorporated from Iran into Russia. The new border became the Aras River when the Soviet Union disintegrated, making it part of the border between Iran and the Azerbaijan Republic. 
 Interesting when did the Caucasian territories become part of Russia? 
 I don't see the year, but at one point, Russia actively tried to gain possession of the Caucasus region which was mostly in the hands of Iran. 
 Ok thank you for the information. 
 You're quite welcome.
