During the Second Karabakh War, we see amazing solidarity between Azerbaijani people. A soldier in the frontline congratulated his daughter's birthday on TV, then some group of people found the family and gave birthday gifts to the little girl saying these are coming from his father. There are many examples like this, for example, while writing this, I witnessed another one on Facebook, an old man donated his (probably) the last 180 manats (~90 euro) to the military fund with wrecked shoes. Now some people are trying to find that old man for buying him brand new shoes.
This war repaired the solidarity of the Azerbaijani people. President Ilham Aliyev is usually posting the names of newly liberated lands on twitter at the end of the day. All the people in Baku are celebrating this by applauding in their balconies with the national anthem and so on.
If we go back a little bit earlier, the strongest solidarity in the last 25 years was witnessed in the summer of 2020 after Armenia killed the Azerbaijani high official military servant, General Major Polad Hasimov. After his death, thousands of people gathered in front of the Azerbaijani Parlament, demanding war with Armenia.
Azerbaijan is the Democratic Republic. However, it doesn't really work so in real life.
