The Caucasus

The Caucasus lies between The Black Sea and The Caspian Sea and is made up of Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan, and the bordering region of Russia.
The Silk Roads run through The Caucasus and have left an important imprint on the history of the area. Indeed, Tbilisi and Yerevan are among the oldest continually inhabited cities in the world. Unfortunately, centuries of invasion and earthquakes has left Yerevan with little of its history to show. However, Tbilisi and Baku enjoy important medieval centres.
