BACKGROUND After the and neutral Democrats; the Muslim Socialist Bloc ; Ittihad-i Muslimin (or simply Ittihad; Union of Muslims of Russia); and the Muslim Social Democratic Party . FORMATION When the 31 March–2 April Massacres took place in Baku, the Temporary Executive Committee was crushed, its factual leader Alimardan Topchubashev was arrested, and the Azeri Intelligentsia was driven out of Baku, Tbilisi became the headquarters of the Azerbaijani National Movement. After the Transcaucasian Democratic Federative Republic fell on 26 May , 1918 and its bodies were dissolved, the Azerbaijani faction of the Sejm was renamed to Azerbaijani National Council (NC). It immediately undertook parliamentary functions and proclaimed the foundation of Azerbaijani Democratic Republic on 28 May , 1918 . On 16 June the Azerbaijani National Council moved to Ganja and declared it Azerbaijan's temporary capital awaiting the fall of the Baku Commune . The Council met with resistance of ultra-nationalists who accused it of being too left-wing; and intolerance of Ottoman Commander Nuru Pasha it had to be abolished the next day, leaving all power to the Council of Ministers lead by Fatali Khan Khoyski . SECOND CONVOCATION After the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in the World War I and the withdrawal of Ottoman forces from Azerbaijan, the power of the ultra-nationalists once backed by Nuru Pasha weakened. This allowed for the Azerbaijani National Council to be re-established and start negotiations with the British occupation forces. The Council was completely abolished after the opening of the ''Parlaman'' on 7 December , 1918 . MEMBERS OF THE AZERBAIJANI NATIONAL COUNCIL
