As an Armenian, what are 5 positive things about Azerbaijani people & culture?

The purpose of this question is all about ignoring the negativity & stereotyping both sides engage in. My 5 key points are:

1. When watching some aspects of Azerbaijani music & traditional dancing I cant but agree that how familiar it is to our Armenian culture

2. While stuck in an airport in Europe with 4 friends of mine, without realizing we and a group of Turks & Azerbaijanis simply gravitated towards each other, at first a bit tense, but within 30 minutes we all were laughing & sharing funny and similar cultural stories and sharing cigarettes

3. My father tells me some of his best friends during the soviet days were Azerbaijanis who he trusted implicitly and were very good & hospitable people

4. I feel an instant bond in many ways when I meet a Turk or Azerbaijani

5. Having traveled through Tabriz, I found the Azeri people very hospitable and would go out of their way to help.

For me it’s pretty difficult to tell about real positive things as last face-to-face contact with Azerbaijani person took place almost 32 years ago. But older generations would mention some positive behavior by them such us honesty during trade in eastern food market/bazar, being devoted friends, honesty when dealing with cash, pretty naive people in good sense (ordinary ones, not the ones trained by scholars/Muslim imams: meaning not aggressive, not cunning), easy people to be persuaded, hospitality is their trait when you’re at their home/house.

Hope answered to your question to the best o

2. They are kind and hospitable and will go out of their way to help people.
3. They are hardworking and industrious in regards to the extent they have developed the Baku oil fields.
4. They are secular and not overly Islamic or conservative like their Middle-Eastern neighbours.
