The National Hero of Azerbaijan (Azerbaijani: Azərbaycan milli qəhrəmanı) is the highest national title in the Republic of Azerbaijan. The title was named on 25 March 1992, and the "Qizil Ulduz" Medal awarded as a sign of receiving this title was established by a separate law on 15 July 1992.[1] The law on the title has been in effect since 25 December 1995. It can only be awarded once to the same person.[2]
The title is awarded for outstanding services of national importance to Azerbaijan in defence and strengthening of the state system and creation of important national values.[3]
Independent Azerbaijan
After the break-up of the Soviet Union in 1991, Azerbaijan and Armenia were engaged in the First Nagorno-Karabakh War in which several Azerbaijanis were awarded with the National Hero of Azerbaijan.
