Dagestan

After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, it took its name from the republic of dagestan within the Russian Federation. It is surrounded by the main peak line of Caucasian mountains, which reach to 3646 meters in the south and west of the guton mountain and 4480 meters in the mountain range. The Caspian Sea lies to the east, Kalmuk Autonomous Republic to the north, Chechnya to the west and northwest, Georgia to the southwest and Azerbaijan to the south.

Dagestan

Dagestan, which lies to the south of the European section of the Russian Federation, occupies an area of ​​50,278 km² from the easternmost tip of the northern slope of the great Caucasian mountains. It is surrounded by the main peak line of Caucasus mountains on the south and west guton mountains and baskaryuzu (4480 meters on the mountain pa). takes place.

Dagestan has a length of 200 kilometers from east to west and 400 kilometers from north to south. Its capital is mahaçkala. Other important cities are derbent, kizyaryar, ishbarbas, and so on.

Geography
Dagestan's name is not a nation, but a geographic-topographical meaning. In Russian, strana gor expression is used in the sense of ad country of mountains ’. Dagestan is geographically divided into five regions. In the first area, there are Caucasian mountains and the inner plateau of Dagestan. The rivers flowing from the mountains into the Caspian Sea, rivers and arid rivers formed deep valleys and cliffs. There is very little rainfall on the south-facing slopes of the Caucasus Mountains. So in some regions there is no vegetative life.

The second region consists of a second mountain belt, which consists of hills and peaks, reaching a height of 920 m in the north of the first zone. This region is quite rainy due to the winds blowing from the north and northwest and is covered with frequent forests. The narrow coastal plain between the mountains and the Caspian Sea forms the third region. It is cut by the rivers that emerge from the straits. The fourth zone, which extends where this plain extending its oil and natural gas deposits, consists of low and swampy plains and terek river delta. Long and sandy agragan peninsula begins just ahead of the delta.

Finally, the nogay steppes covered with sand dunes just north of the terek form the fifth. The climate of this region is warm and dry, and plant life shows half the desert features.

The main rivers of Dagestan are Gazi Kumuk, Kara, Avar and Andi bays, and the waterhole is located in the north of the Mohabkale. These rivers, which generally flow parallel to the mountains, play an important role in shaping the characteristics of dagestan by forming channels and channels at the depth of 1000 meters and in the narrowing.

Dagestan's climate is generally hot and dry. The average temperature in low sections is -3.6 degrees in January and 23 degrees in July. The northern part of Dagestan is composed of a thirsty and arid steppe that does not exceed 26 meters in height and reaches to the sea. The population density of this area is very low.

The coastline of this region is sometimes submerged. There are many salt lakes and swamps between Kuma and Terek. Between terek and the wetlands, aktaş, yarıksu, yamansu and aksay teas are lost on the beaches. The climate of this plain is extremely dry, with the exception of the northwestern regions, which are relatively high on the coastline. In the more northern region, which is flat, free of rivers and forests and open to northern winds, the temperature reaches 40 degrees Celsius in winter and 40 degrees Celsius in winter.

Agriculture, terek neck and sun irrigated by way of irrigation is done in the southwest. In other parts, various Turkish tribes live and migrate. On the seaside the fishing is engaged.

Dagestan is full of natural riches. The vegetation of the mountainous region consists of deciduous forests in valleys and canyons, pine and birch forests on high hills and alpine meadows above the tree border. There are frequent deciduous forests on the hill slopes interrupted by a desert plant. In the low slopes, fertile maroon soils are dominated by sparse brown soil areas. On the coast of the Caspian Sea, salty marsh lands are common.

Population
The population of Dagestan is nearing 2,950,000 today (2007 estimate). The Turkish peoples are 20% of the population of Kumuks, Azeri and Noghais. It is surprising that the population has entered a very rapid growth process. Because the Russian and mountain cuhutlar (jew) in the country are migrating. Russia and Israel are especially great migrants.

The ratio of Russians to the total population has fallen to 4%. This decrease in population growth rate
