Oghuz (Azerbaijani: Oğuz) is a rayon (administrative division, equivalent of English county) of Azerbaijan. The population of the region consisted of Azerbaijanis. Till 1991 the name of rayon was Vartashen, an Armenian name, but in line with the policy of Azerification, the rayon was given a Turkic name. The capital, also renamed Oğuz, maintains three old castles, a lot of old mosques,some archaeological monuments and two attractive old Caucasus Albanian churches (one now a museum) and two active synagogues.
