cultural life of Azerbaijan in difficult condition, it formed the structures,
also tax and financial authorities, State Bank which conducted the economic
policy of the state.
Though all efforts made by
Republic in state building, the following course of events didn’t give an
opportunity to realize the most of events considered. Its 23 months activity was
very important event in the destiny of Azerbaijani people. The great historical
practice, democracy and democratic state building of Azerbaijan Republic having
its own parliament, government, army and monetary unit in a short period is
realized and developed at present in the Republic of Azerbaijan which has legal
and moral inheritance.

liberation movement started in our republic since 1988, Azerbaijan announced
its state independence for the second time with adoption of Independence Act in
former Supreme Soviet on 18 October 1991. The establishment of statehood ideas
in Azerbaijan society started to attain fundamental essence with coming of
national leader Heydar Aliyev to the government with persistent request of the
people in 1993. The new political course started to be formed in the country
since June 1993 eliminated the risk of civil war, ended separatism tendencies and
caused to realization of state building policy of H.Aliyev.

independent state in 1995, all of legal and political acts adopted in the
republic serve to strengthening of independence of our state, protection of
human rights and development of democracy. The historical path in the period of
Azerbaijan’s independence must be honor for all of us, the importance of works
