Artsakhball

Artsakhball (also known as Nagorno-Karabakhball) was an unrecognized countryball in the Caucasus region of Eurasia. It was bordered by Armeniaball in the west, Azerbaijanball in the east and north and, Iranball in the south. Azerbaijanball, from whom Artsakhball declared independence, thinks Artsakhball belongs to it.
==History==
 Artsakhball was born as a 2ball, adopted by Urartuball, Ancient Armeniaball, Caucasian Iberiaball, SPQRball, Parthiaball, Persiaball, Bagratid Armeniaball, Mongol Empireball, Russian Empireball, Transcaucasiaball, and Sovietball. It was then an Autonomous Oblastball within the Azerbaijan SSRball.
 Artsakhball has always had a rebellious streak. Like much of the region, it had been passed down from empire to empire for a long time as a provinceball. When Bagratid Armeniaball ruled it, it rebelled in the year 1000 with Syunikball and Geghark'unikball, and started its own kingdom, becoming Kingdom of Artsakhball. However, Mongol Empireball later took it over in 1261.
 Artsakhball became an independent, though mostly unrecognized, countryball when a war over it between its big sibling Armeniaball and Azerbaijanball ended. Soviet Unionball had given Azerbaijanball custody over Artsakhball in the 1920s even though it was of Armenian clay, as a favor to Turkeyball. When Sovietball was dying, Artsakhball no longer wanted to live with its abusive surrogate parent Azerbaijanball and broke away with its sibling's help. It had tried to legally break away through the majority vote, but Sovietball said nyet, and Azerbaijanball got angry and started bombing it. 
 Armeniaball rushed to its sibling's aid. In 1994, Azerbaijanball begged for a ceasefire because Armeniaball was into kicking its ass, and the ceasefire is still in effect (in name only), with kebabs still shooting across the border and violating the ceasefire. Artsakhball was very damaged after the war, but began to rebuild and is about to open its first international airport. USAball is thinking about recognizing it. But for now, it is only recognized by Armeniaball, Transnistriaball, ​ Abkhaziaball and South Ossetiaball, and some stateballs.
The biggest flare-up of the war since 1994 happened in April 2016 when Azerbaijanball attacked him again, blowing up and slaughtering Talishball (one of its border villages), mostly to distract its citizens from its own corrupt government and falling prices. Azerballs hired thugs and mercenaries from ISISball, and Artsakhball had target practice on Azeri tanks, threatening to move on to more fun targets like oil pipelines and the Mingachevir reservoir next should things escalate further. But soon enough Azerbaijanball called a ceasefire again after a four-day bombardment, with minimal territorial gains. For many months kebabs started to increase their amount of weapons for probably another invasion. In February 2017, it had a constitutional referendum where it voted to stop calling itself Nagorno-Karabakhball and call itself Artsakhball (sort of nickname until that point).
In late 2020, Artsakhball was the epicenter of the war between Armeniaball and Azerbaijanball, and suffered civilian casualties. It ended up losing all of the lands it got from the previous war, plus a little more.
In 2023, Azerbaijanball started an all-out military invasion of Nagorno-Karabakh, displacing over 100,000 Armenians. It also led to the end of Artsakhball.
 Artsakhball dissolved 1 January 2024, with all of its clay fully reintegrating back into Azerbaijanball

==How to draw==
Drawing Artsakhball is not easy.
# Draw a black circle and divide it into three vertical stripes with red on top, blue in the middle, and orange at the bottom, like the Armenian flag.
# Draw a white sideways zig-zag chevron on the right side such that three small portions of the zig zag fill up one stripe. It is very apparent in the flag.
# Add the eyes and you have finished
