Who are the Circassians and How Did They End Up in the Middle East? | Alia Azouqa
Alia Azouqa takes a deep dive into the Circassians – an indigenous Northwest Caucasian ethnic group and nation native to the historical country and region of Circassia in the North Caucasus – and how it ended up in the Middle East. She tells us about the history of the Circassians through the eras, the right of return, and learning the Circassian language as an adult.
