History

In the years of the Russian Empire, the village of Papravend was part of the Javanshir district of the Elizavetpol province. According to the "Caucasian Calendar" of 1912, the village had a population of 448 people, primarily Tatars, later known as Azerbaijanis.[4]

According to the results of the Azerbaijani agricultural census of 1921, the village of Papravend was part of the Kabarda Boy Ahmedli rural community of Javanshir district, Azerbaijan SSR. The population was 920 people (155 households), the predominant nationality being Azerbaijani Turks (Azerbaijanis).[5]

After the administrative reform division and the abolition of districts in 1929, it became part of Aghdam district, Azerbaijan SSR. According to the 1983 census conducted in the Azerbaijan SSR, the population of the village was 1,531.[3]

After the end of the Second Karabakh War, a ceasefire agreement was signed under the terms of which the entire territory Aghdam district was returned to Azerbaijan on 20 November 2020.[6]
