Zar, Azerbaijan
Zar ((アルメニア語:Ծար), Tsar, also spelled Tzar or Car, (:tsɑɾ)) is a village in the Kalbajar Rayon of Azerbaijan, currently under the control of the unrecognized Nagorno Karabakh Republic.
==Etymology==
Armenian architectural historian Samvel Karapetyan has written that name Zar is the Turkish pronunciation of the settlement's Armenian name ''Tsar'' which, due to its size, was still being referred to as ''Metsn Tzar'' (Great Tzar) as late as the eighteenth century.〔Karapetyan, Samvel. ''Armenian Cultural Monuments in the Region of Karabakh''. Trans. Anahit Martirossian. Yerevan: Gitutiun Publishing House of NAS RAA, 2001, p. 13.〕
A popular Azeri legend gives an alternative origin. A poor young man named Zasa once lived in this village. He was in love with a girl named Nasy whose parents did not approve of their relationship. Zasa then decided to ask Nadir Shah for help. He planted a watermelon in a jar with a narrow neck. The surprised shah liked it and ordered Nasy to be given to Zasa. However, as soon as Nadir Shah left town, Nasy's family went to Zasa's house, killed him and threw his body into a well. After that, Zasa's mother wept for many days. The name Zar was said to have be derived from this legend because the Azerbaijani word ''zarıldamaq'' (zaryldamag) translates as "to sob."
