The Treaty of Gulistan was signed on October 21, 1813, between the Russian Empire and the Persian Empire. This agreement marked the end of the Russo-Persian War (1804-1813) and established the borders between the two empires in the South Caucasus region. It resulted in significant territorial losses for Persia, granting Russia control over parts of modern-day Azerbaijan and Georgia. The treaty also included provisions for trade and diplomatic relations, laying the groundwork for future interactions between Russia and Persia. The Treaty of Gulistan is considered a pivotal moment in the history of the South Caucasus, influencing regional politics for years to come.
