Baku's electric urban scene began with its first oil blast toward the finish of the nineteenth century, which carried an enormous populace of settlers to the country. Prior to at that point, the city was contained inside twelfth century stronghold dividers — a piece of the Azerbaijani capital that is as yet standing today. After the Bolsheviks took over in the mid 1920s, the sumptuous homes of oil aristocrats were supplanted by structures that were better lined up with the communist philosophy. Be that as it may, when the nation picked up autonomy in 1991, a subsequent oil blast changed the city once more, and Baku modernized and extended towards the sky.
