Azerbaijani people - Azerbaijani people (English spelling)

Japanese: アゼルバイジャン人 - アゼルバイジャンじん(英語表記)Azerbajdžanskaja
Azerbaijani people - Azerbaijani people (English spelling)
A Turkic-speaking ethnic group that makes up Azerbaijan. Approximately 6 million people live in Azerbaijan, and about 10 million live in Iran. They speak Azerbaijani, a Turkic language, and form a dialect group with Turkmen and Turkish. The origin of the Azerbaijani people is thought to be a mixture of Albanians and Medes who originated in this region and Bulgarian Huns, Scythian-Kimmeridgians, Iranians, Khazars, and Turkic-Mongolians who arrived later. In the past, they mainly settled and engaged in agriculture and livestock farming. Most of them are Muslims.
