Huseynali KhanGuba Khan who was in power in 1726-1758.[1]

History[edit]

At the end of 1726 and at the beginning of 1727, the Guba Khanate became part of Russia , and Huseynali Bey, the younger son of Sultan Ahmed Khan , who was killed in 1718, was declared the Guba Khan. Thus. In the official document stored in the Foreign Policy Archive of the Russian Empire, it is reported that on October 20, 1726, Huseynali Bey, who arrived in Darban , took the oath of loyalty by accepting Russian protection. The oath read:[2]

"I, Huseynali Bey, the son of Guba Khan,

swear by the Qur'an according to the rules of Sharia that the empress will be a subject of her majesty,

I will serve the empress with my subjects, my soul, my soul and all my pure conscience as a natural and loyal servant of her majesty,

no contradictory actions against her subjects will not show,

I will show loyalty and all kinds of kindness to the entire Russian Empire with my subjects."

Khan Guba not only swore to always be loyal, but also undertook to provide all kinds of assistance to the Russian troops in the fight, and to provide housing for the Russian soldiers. Huseynali Bey also promised that he would not have any contact with Russia's open or secret enemies.

On December 21, 1726, at the Supreme Privy Council in Petersburg , the issue of accepting Huseynali Bey under Russian protection and confirming him as the Khan of Guba was considered. A decree was sent to Field Marshal Dolgoruki, the commander of the Russian troops in the Caspian coast provinces, to accept Huseynali Bey's lands under Russian protection and give him the rank of khan if they remain in the Russian zone according to the treaty concluded with the Ottomans[3]. Since a large part of the Guba Khanate remained on the Russian side when the borders were being determined, Huseynali Khan was confirmed as the Guba Khan, and the guardians were separated because the Khan was young. Afrasiyab became viceroy and Faramez became minister. At the same time, the peasants and elders of the khanate took an oath of loyalty to Huseynali Khan and the Russian empresses.

Huseynali Khan showed outward obedience to the shah's authority. As a result of this policy, during the first march of Nadir Shah to Azerbaijan in 1734, the Shah gave Selyan to the administration of Huseynali Khan, and thus Selyan was reunited with Guba. Less than a year later, the king removed the administration of Selya from the authority of Guba Khan.

In the last years of Nadir Shah Afshar 's rule, the popular movement against Iranian rule in Azerbaijan became widespread. Speeches also took place in Guba . In 1735, part of the Kubans to Nadir Shahopposed, and relying on the Dagestanis, they besieged Huseynali Khan in the Khudat fortress. Shamkhal Khaspulad and the chief of the Darbend garrison came to his aid and defeated the rebels.[4]

Starting from 1742, there were regular uprisings in Shirvan , and the Iranian power in Shaki was shaken. After the assassination of Nadir Shah on the night of June 19-20, 1747, Iranian rule was abolished in Azerbaijan[3]. However, the weakness of the economic relations between the different regions of the country did not create a basis for establishing an independent state in Azerbaijan . Therefore, up to 20 feudal state institutions-khanates were formed in Azerbaijan . The biggest of them are Karabakh , Iravan , Urmia , Tabriz and Shekiwere khanates. One of the relatively strong khanates was the Guba khanate .

The Guba Khanate was a small but militarily strong political union. During Nadir Shah's marches to Azerbaijan and in the following years, when the feudal struggle intensified, the khanate suffered little damage compared to other Azerbaijani lands. Because in 1735, after the Caspian provinces were ceded to Iran by Russia , Huseynali Khan and other judges took a number of measures to prevent the plundering of the Khanate and to protect their power. Also, since there were fortresses in the khanate, the population could find shelter if necessary. All this is Azerbaijan caused the population to flow to the Guba khanate from the southern and southeastern lowland regions, which suffered more from enemy attacks and inter-feudal struggles. This created conditions for increasing the economic power of the khanate. In 1757, the transfer of a number of families from the vicinity of Darband and Shamakhi to the Guba Khanate helped to increase the military power of the Khanate.

Huseyn Ali Khan used to give his son Fatali various tasks in order to familiarize him with military and political affairs. In 1756, his father appointed Fatali as the commander-in-chief of a powerful army for his time under the leadership of one of the Guba beys.

Late years[edit]

In the middle of the 18th century , Salyan became an independent khanate and its ruler was Ahmad Khan. In the middle of the 50s of the 18th century , Ahmad Khan died and his distant relative Ibrahim Rudbari took power.[5] Dissatisfied with the rule of Ibrahim Khan Rudbari, the Salyan feudal lords secretly contacted Guba Khan and asked to remove Ibrahim Khan from power and transfer the administration of Salyan to someone else. This request gave Guba Khan an opportunity to interfere in Salya's internal affairs. In 1757, the troops of Guba led by Fatali, the 20-year-old crown prince of Huseynali Khan , raided the Selyan Khanate. Ibrahim Khan fled and hid in Rudbar. With this, Selyan was reunited with Guba. Guba khans by uniting SalyaThey acquired important economic centers such as Hasanabad , Rudbar , Safikhan and Salyan ports. The judge of Salyan, appointed by Guba Khan, began to rule the place with the title of sultan. At the same time, the Guba khanate had the opportunity to put pressure on the Shamakhi and Baku khanates . Huseynali Khan died in 1758.
