About the public figures who played a key role in the history and activity of our diaspora in Germany, and the further strengthening and consistent work of the Azerbaijani diaspora in Germany after the coming to power of General Leader Heydar Aliyev. The German ‒ Azerbaijani relations, which have historically ancient roots, and the people who played an important role in the formation of these relations, are mentioned in the article about the German consulate that was established in Azerbaijan even before the First World War. At the insistence of German specialists working in copper mines in Azerbaijan ‒ Gadabey, the German consulate that was established in this area and then in Baku and its establishment of German-Azerbaijani friendly relations are discussed. At the same time, the massacre of the Armenians in different regions of Azerbaijan and in the city of Baku by the consulate in February 1905 is also mentioned. The article talks about the activities of Azerbaijani intellectuals in Germany before the First World War and during the period of Tsarist Russia in the creation of the Azerbaijani diaspora in the future. In conclusion, in this article the author emphasizes the activities of the Azerbaijani diaspora, operating mainly in Germany, and the history of its formation, and also reports that today the diaspora is of great importance in our globalized world in accurately conveying the realities of Azerbaijan to the world community.
