The Javanshir Turkish dynasty, gaining power in the region, established dual relations with Iran and Russia. To strengthen relations, Fath Ali Shah married the daughter of Khan Javanshir. This connection did not prevent the Javanshirians from consolidating their political attitude towards the Iranian government. Aghabigam Agha, a poet and aware of the new civilization became the wife of Fath Ali Shah. This marriage failed in the private and emotional dimension, but caused the influence of Javanshirians and Qarabaghians in the power structure of Iran. This article, based on the method of historical analysis, has described and interpreted the role of Javanshiri women in the Qajar harem and later in the power of Iran. The marriage led to the establishment of the Qarabaghian network in the Qajar court, which ranged from court and diplomatic, judicial to conspiracy theories.  Other marriages of Javanshiri women with other princes also strengthened this network. The Karabakh network became an important local and regional intermediary for political and trade relations with the Russians and the Caucasus. The network, which had its roots in the harem, was supplemented by a military, security, commercial and court network.

This study aims to throw some lights on certain aspects of pre-modern social life in the south Caucasus. Focusing on Shushi as a typical case, it attempts to explain different characteristics of urban life in 18th century south Caucasus in relation to the political, ecological and social conditions of the region. Central to this study is an attempt to explain the contribution of tribal force to the formation of urban life. Following a general look on the historical background, it traced the process through which a tribal governor established Shushi as his center of power and developed it to become a small town. In the meantime, it surveys the physical as well as social structures of the town as a part of its historical development. Finally, it tries to highlight the role of Russian domination in continuation and development of Shushi's urban life in a modern period. The study shows that Shushi's historical development as a typical case in 18th and early 19th south Caucasia has been directly affected by both internal and external factors.
