Armenia
According to SHAHEN MKRTCHYAN, a scholar specialized in Artsakh issues,
the NKR dwelling areas should be renamed as follows: "By the decision
of the NKR National Assembly, the Nagorno Karabakh Republic shall
be renamed as the Armenian Republic of Artsakh. Stepanakert shall
be renamed as Bagavan (meaning 'a dwelling of gods'). The region
of Hadrout shall be renamed as the province of Dizak, the region
of Martouni - the province of Varanda, the region of Askeran -
the province of Khachen, the country town of Askeran - Mayraberd,
the region of Shushi - Zarist, the region of Sahoumyan - the province
of Sghuen and the region of Martakert - the province of Jraberd. All
the above-mentioned names are the relics of our old dwelling areas;
they fell out of use long ago but were never forgotten. By putting
them into use once again, we will resume the original historical
Armenian names of our villages".
