Azerbaijan in News: Towards the end of the Bronze Age, a land emerged from the contest between the forces of light and darkness. Its name was Adar-Bad-Agan (Azerbaijan) means ?the country protected by fire?. The Zoroastrians came to the Caspian Sea in the sixth century BC, worshipped fire (known as Adar) as one of the four cosmic elements. At that time the coastline was ablaze with gas flames from the hydrocarbon reserves in the seabed. Azeri history is rich in legend and famous as a transit point along the Silk Route, it was respected for the purity of its saffron, gold and silver. Marco Polo observed the first oil exports from the Absheron Peninsula in the 13th century. Azerbaijan?s natural resource comprises oil, gas and iron ores. These have helped Azerbaijan to rapidly industrialise during the 19th Century.
