[Artsakh](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artsakh) was the tenth province of the Kingdom of Armenia (189 BC - 387 AD) and a region of Caucasian Albania (387 to 7th cent). From the 7th to 9th centuries, it was under Arab control. In 821, it formed the Armenian principality of Khachen and by the year 1000 was proclaimed the Kingdom of Artsakh. Most of historical Artsakh's territory overlaps with the [Nagorno-Karabakh Republic](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagorno-Karabakh_Republic)
