  Transcaucasian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Transcaucasian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic was a short-lived (1922-1936) Soviet republic, consisting of Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan, which were traditionally known as the Transcaucasian Republics in the Soviet Union.
The republic's roots date back to the dissolution of the Russian Empire in 1917, during the Russian Revolution, when the provinces of the Caucasus seceded and attempted to form their own federal state called the Transcaucasian Federation.
Competing national interests and war with Turkey led to the disbanding of the republic half a year later, in April 1918.
