Fizuli is a raion of Azerbaijan, partially under the military control of Armenian forces since the end of Nagorno-Karabakh War.
The town of Fizuli was founded in 1827 as a Russian settlement under the name Karyagino. In 1959, the town and the associated raion were renamed to Fizuli after the medieval poet Muhammad Fuzûlî.
