For two centuries there were prohibitions to the people of Azerbaijan to have any moral and spiritual communication. Though the reigns of chauvinist tsar in Russia and chauvinist shah in Iran were like a heavy attack to the morality of the Azerbaijani people, who had ancient and rich literature and history, they could not break the people’s national pride and will to sustain their existence and pass to the future generation. From this point of view, the literature and the press that were created during that time have served the people on unparalleled level.
