Azerbaijan belongs to Turkic language family. It's a very melodious language with approximately 23 million speakers. Here are some facts about it:

1. It is closely related to Turkish.
2. It uses both Latin and Arabic scripts historically.
3. It is the official language of the Republic of Azerbaijan.

## Technical details

It's one of the models derived from the base [mGPT-XL (1.3B)](https://huggingface.co/ai-forever/mGPT) model (see the list below) which was originally trained on the 61 languages from 25 language families using Wikipedia and C4 corpus.

We've found additional data for 23 languages most of which are considered as minor and decided to further tune the base model. **Azerbaijan mGPT 1.3B** was trained for another 70000 steps with batch_size=4 and context window of **2048** tokens on 1 A100.

Final perplexity for this model on validation is **5.37**.
