Caspiana
Caspiane or Kaspiane (Greek: Κασπιανή, Armenian: Կասպք Kaspkʿ) was the land populated by the tribe of Caspians, after whom it received its name. Originally a province of the Median kingdom in the 3rd–2nd centuries BC, the land of the Caspians was conquered in the 2nd century BC, then passed to Caucasian Albania under the suzerainty of the Sasanian Empire in the 5th century, and later became an independent state. In the 2nd century AD, it became known as Paytakaran, and after 387 AD became a part of the Caucasian Albanian larger region of Balasakan.
It roughly corresponded to the modern Mughan plain and Qaradagh regions.
