Artsakhball

Nagorno-Karabakhball is an unrecognized countryball in Caucasus. He likes to call himself Artsakhball as well, an old name from when he was Kingdom of Artsakhball in the middle ages.

History
Artsakhball was always having a rebellious streak. Like much of the region, he had been passed down from empireball to empireball for a long time as a provinceball. When Bagratid Armeniaball ruled him, he rebelled in the year 1000 with Syunikball and Geghark'unikball and started his own kingdom, becoming Kingdom of Artsakhball. However, Mongol Empireball later took him over in 1261.

Nargorno-Karabakhball became an independent, though mostly unrecognized countryball when a custody battle over him between his big brother Armeniaball and Azerbaijanball ended. Soviet Unionball had given Azerbaijanball custody over Nagorno-Karabakhball in the 1920's even though he was of Armenian clay, as a favor to Turkeyball. When Soviet Unionball died, Nagorno-Karabakhball no longer wanted to live with his abusive surrogate parent Azerbaijanball, and rebelled with his brother's help. Nargorno-Karabakhall was very damaged after the war, but began to rebuild and is about to open his first international airport. UnitedStatesball is thinking about recognising him. But for now, he is only recognized by Armeniaball, Transnistriaball, Abkhaziaball and South Ossetiaball and some stateballs.

Artsakhball born as a 2ball, adopted by Urartuball, Ancient Armeniaball, Caucasian Iberiaball, SPQRball, Parthiaball, Persiaball, Bagratid Armeniaball, Mongol Empireball, Russian Empireball, Transcaucasiaball, and Sovietball. Was then an Autonomous Oblastball within Azerbaijan SSRball.

How to draw
Drawing Nagorno-Karabakhball is not easy.
 * 1) Draw a black circle and divide it into thirds with red on top, blue in the center, and orange on the bottom.
 * 2) Draw a white zig zag such that three small portions of the zig zag fill up one stripe. It is very apparent in the flag.
