Babek; a Small City in Azerbaijan

Babək (also, Babek, Babekskiy, and Tazakend) (Urdu: بابک) is a city and municipality in and the capital of Babek Rayon, in the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic of Azerbaijan.

History:

Before the 1978, settlement was known as Tazakand. However, then was renamed in honor of the Persian revolutionary leader Babak Khorramdin.

Demography:

As long as population concerns, Babek is rather a very small city. As of 2010, population of Babək contains 3252 people. 

In countries like Pakistan even a little village has population more than what Babek has. But in Azerbaijan Babuk is considered a city, not village.
