The recognition of the integration and disintegration contexts and factors is one of the important necessities in policy making process about the national solidarity in each country. Regarding, Iran is a country that has got regional and cultural variety, it has been used as a geopolitical means for regional and trans - regional actors and also some of the experts in different fields of competition, especially political competitions. One of the important regions of Iran which has been affected by some cultural differences in the language area is Azarbaijan region. Regarding high geopolitical importance of Azarbaijan in Iran, national integration and disintegration has got great importance in this area. So, this research was started with the aim of studying integration and disintegration factors in Azarbaijan. Research method in this article is survey and we have got the data through questionnaire. For this purpose, we passed out a questionnaire about Azarbaijan among informed people. The data was evaluated by means of Welcocson nonparametrical test; the results confirmed the hypotheses of the research. In other words, the results showed that national integration in Azarbaijan has been an old and innate matter that is rooted in its various ties with Iran in different historical, cultural, social and other dimensions, but disintegration is an accidental (non-essential) matter that can be analyzed in the form of modern theories.
