Karabahhi Melikiriigid (ka Hamsa Melikiriigid (armeenia keeles Խամսայի մելիքություններ, Khamsayi melikutyunner)) olid armeenlaste valdused Mägi-Karabahhis ja selle ümbruses alates Hatšeni Vürstiriigi lõpust 17. sajandi alguses kuni selleni, kui Venemaa Keisririik rahvuslikud feodaalüksused 1822. aastal likvideeris.[1][2]

  1. Britannica:"In mountainous Karabakh a group of five Armenian maliks (princes) succeeded in conserving their autonomy and maintained a short period of independence (1722–30) during the struggle between Persia and Turkey at the beginning of the 18th century; despite the heroic resistance of the Armenian leader David Beg, the Turks occupied the region but were driven out by the Persians under the general Nādr Qolī Beg (from 1736-47, Nādir Shah) in 1735."
  2. Encyclopaedia of Islam. — Leiden: BRILL, 1986. — vol. 1. — p. 639-640:"The wars between the Ottomans and the Safawids were still to be fought on Armenian soil, and part of the Armenians of Adharbaydjan were later deported as a military security measure to Isfahan and elsewhere. Semi-autonomous seigniories survived, with varying fortunes, in the mountains of Karabagh, to the north of Adharbaydjan, but came to an end in the 18th century."
