Oh,.... this is a diamond in my collection, it's Nagorno-Karabakh!!!!!!!! WOw! Wow!
It is a territory officially part of Azerbaijan but in fact fully independent and backed by Armenia. I don't want to talk about politcs here: just consider that the only way to officially send a letter from here is using the stamps of Artsakhpost. Letters take their way through the Armenian postal system. see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagorno-Karabakh

Congratulation Ralph for to get a cover from this country so difficult.
Beautiful textile! www.lickandstitch.blogspot.com
Be caredul - Nagorno-Karabakh is not an independent country! :-O
I plan to visit this interesting place in a few weeks and definitely cannot wait to send covers from there! :-)
By the way, I'll send you the Azerbaijan cover when I find the time! :-)
