A Crucible of Nations

by Lauren Goodrich and Peter Zeihan

The Caucasus region historically has served as a battleground between the empires of old, with a dense population of nationalities constantly vying for leverage over one another and their imperial would-be rulers. In the modern day, three major powers - post-Soviet Russia, Islamic Iran and Republican Turkey - are all rising to prominence at the same time, and regardless of their wishes, all are drawn to the border zone between them.
