Where is Shi'ite Azeri ethnic group located?
Azerbaijan is where the Azeri's live. They speak a language close to Turkish, but at the same time they are kept at some distance by the Turks because they are in the majority Shi'ites. Unlike Iran, the basis of modern, secular Turkey is national - not religious - identity. Shi'ism in Azerbaijan has had to deal with a society secularized by seven decades of Soviet rule. While it is true that Azeri mullahs are "Iranified", it is also true that an independent Azerbaijan fears too much Iranization. At the same time, Iran does not push too hard for Shi'ite influence on Azerbaijan because Azeri nationalism could conceivably embark on a reunification of Azerbaijan to the benefit of Baku, and not of Tehran.
