Context: The Donetsk–Krivoy Rog Soviet Republic (Russian: Донецко-Криворожская советская республика ) was a self-declared Soviet republic of the Russian SFSR founded on 12 February 1918.  The republic claimed "self-determined" territories in treaties of Brest-Litovsk; it was founded three days after the government of Ukraine signed the treaty with Germans, which recognised the borders of Ukrainian People's Republic, within which the Donetsk-Krivoy Rog Soviet Republic was located.  On 29 March 1918 it became a republic within Ukrainian Soviet Republic, where it was merged with Ukrainian People's Republic of Soviets (capital in Kharkov, founded 25 December 1917) and Odessa Soviet Republic (founded 1 March 1918), until the last was fully occupied by the German forces according to treaties of Brest-Litovsk. North Caucasian Soviet Republic (Russian: Се́веро-Кавка́зская Сове́тская Респу́блика , "Severo-Kavkazskaya Sovetskaya Respublika") (July 7–December, 1918) was a territory in the North Caucasus established to consolidate Soviet power during the Russian Civil War.  A republic of the Russian SFSR, it was created by merging the Kuban-Black Sea Soviet Republic, the Stavropol Soviet Republic, and the Terek Soviet Republic.  Its capital was Yekaterinodar; however, on August 17, 1918 Yekaterinodar was taken by Denikin's Volunteer Army, and the capital was moved to Pyatigorsk. The Kazakh Autonomous Socialist Soviet Republic (until 1936 Kazak Autonomous Socialist Soviet Republic; Russian: Казакская Автономная Социалистическая Советская Республика , "Kazakskaya Avtonomnaya Socialisticheskaya Sovetskaya Respublika"; Kazakh: Қазақ Автономиялық Социалистік Советтік Республикасы, "Qazaq Avtonomïyalıq Sotsialïstik Sovettik Respuwblïkası", قازاق اۆتونومئيالىق سوتسىالئستىك سوۆەتتىك زەسپۋبلئكاسى ; Kazakh Uniform Turkic Alphabet: "Qazaq Aptonom Sotsijalistik Sovettik Respuʙlikasь" ) was an autonomous republic of the Soviet Union within the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR) existing from 1925 until 1936. The Culture of Azerbaijan (Azerbaijani:Azərbaycan mədəniyyəti) is culture of Azerbaijan Republic and Iranian Azerbaijan.  It has developed under the influence of Iranian, Turkic and Caucasian heritage as well as Russian influences due to its former status as a Soviet republic.  Today, western influences, including globalized consumer culture, are prevalent. The Caucasian Albanian alphabet, or the alphabet for the Gargareans, was an alphabet used by the Caucasian Albanians, one of the ancient and indigenous Northeast Caucasian peoples whose territory comprised parts of present-day Azerbaijan and Daghestan.  It was one of only two indigenous alphabets ever developed for speakers of indigenous Caucasian languages (i.e. Caucasian languages that are not a part of larger groupings like the Turkic and Indo-European languages families) to represent any of their languages, the other being the Georgian alphabet.  The Armenian language, the third language of Caucasus with its own alphabet, is an independent branch of the Indo-European language family. Azerbaijanis ( ) or Azeris (Azerbaijani: "Azərbaycanlılar" آذربایجانلیلار, "Azərilər" آذریلر), also known as Azerbaijani Turks (Azerbaijani: "Azərbaycan türkləri" آذربایجان تورکلری), are a Turkic ethnic group living mainly in Iranian Azerbaijan and the independent Republic of Azerbaijan.  They are the second-most numerous ethnic group among the Turkic peoples after Anatolian Turks.  They are predominantly Shi'i Muslims, and have a mixed cultural heritage, including Turkic, Iranian, and Caucasian elements.  They comprise the largest ethnic group in Republic of Azerbaijan and by far the second-largest ethnic group in neighboring Iran.  The world's largest number of ethnic Azerbaijanis live in Iran, followed by Azerbaijan. Globalization (or globalisation; see spelling differences) is the increasing interaction of people through the growth of the international flow of money, ideas and culture.  Globalization is primarily an economic process of integration which has social and cultural aspects as well.  It involves goods and services, and the economic resources of capital, technology and data.  Advances in the means of transport (such as the steam locomotive, steamship, jet engine, and container ships) and in telecommunications infrastructure (including the rise of the telegraph and its modern offspring, the Internet and mobile phones) have been major factors in globalization, generating further interdependence of economic and cultural activities. The Azerbaijani wedding tradition (Azerbaijani: "Azərbaycanın toy adətləri" ) is one of the most significant and solemn family traditions of the Azerbaijani people, a Turkic people, both in Azerbaijan Republic and Iranian Azerbaijan and it is very similar to Turkish marriage and Persian marriage.  It is multi-stepped, and is related to various compulsory rituals and traditions.  Ancient Azerbaijani weddings reflect cycles of traditions, lasting for a long period of time, and need significant material costs.  The wedding itself consists of three levels: pre-wedding period (matchmaking, engagement, contracting a marriage), wedding and after wedding period.  Wedding elements of the Azerbaijani nation also influenced ang got influenced from cultures and peoples of other ethnic groups living in Azerbaijan republic and Iranian Azerbaijan, including Persians, Armenians, Georgians, Kurds, Lezgians, Khinaligs and Tsakurs. Azerbaijani literature (Azerbaijani: "Azərbaycan ədəbiyyatı" ) refers to the literature written in Azerbaijani, a Turkic language, which currently is the official state language of the Republic of Azerbaijan and is the first-language of most people in Iranian Azerbaijan.  While the majority of Azerbaijani people live in Iran, modern Azerbaijani literature is overwhelmingly produced in the Republic of Azerbaijan, where the language has official status.  Three scripts are used for writing the language : Azerbaijani latin script in the Republic of Azerbaijan, Persian alphabet in Iranian Azerbaijan and Cyrillic script in Russia. Azerbaijani ( , , ) or Azeri ( , ), also referred to as Azeri Turkic or Azeri Turkish, is a Turkic language spoken primarily by the Azerbaijanis, who are concentrated mainly in Transcaucasia and Iranian Azerbaijan.  The language has official status in Azerbaijan and Dagestan (a federal subject of Russia) but it does not have official status in Iranian Azerbaijan, where the majority of Azerbaijanis live.  It is also spoken to lesser varying degrees in Azerbaijani communities of Georgia and Turkey and by diaspora communities, primarily in Europe and North America.
