Azerbaijan declared its independence from the 
Soviet Union in 1991, marking the beginning of a new era. The early years were tumultuous, with 
Abulfaz Elchibey's brief presidency and the intensifying 
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, leading to 
Heydar Aliyev's rise to power in 1993. A ceasefire in 1994 brought temporary relief, and in 1995, a new constitution was adopted. Heydar Aliyev's presidency laid the foundation for the country's political stability and economic growth, notably with the inauguration of the 
Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan 
pipeline in 2006. Ilham Aliyev succeeded his father in 2003, winning subsequent elections in 2008, 2013, and 2018, despite allegations of electoral fraud. A 2016 referendum further consolidated presidential power, including the creation of a vice-presidential position.
In 2020, the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict flared up again, resulting in Azerbaijan regaining significant territories before a 
Russian-brokered ceasefire was signed. Ilham Aliyev's government then focused on reconstruction efforts in these areas. The ruling New Azerbaijan Party maintained its dominance in the 2023 
parliamentary elections. As of 2024, Azerbaijan continues to develop his infrastructure and economy while addressing long-standing regional tensions.
