What do you mean?
The Caucasus was already part of the Medes, later on the Persians took it over from the Medes. The Caucasus Mountains were part of the Aryan Empires since the very beginning of the Aryan Empires.
Also, Azerbaijan (eastern parts of the Caucasus) was part of 'Iran' until very recent times.

eastern parts of caucasus you possibly mean the long forgotten history of dagestan campaign where nader shah failed his mission to conquest of those lands in order to make them a part of his empire.. azerbaijani people are actually persians themselves who adopted the turkish language

^Nader took over the caucasus briefly, but he lost it rather quickly. With that said, the entire caucasus region was occupied and conquered many times by Turks.
And azerbaijanis arent and werent originally persians either. Their ethnogenesis formed as a result of intermarriage between Iranians, turks, and caucasians.

Sure, but before Islam, Dagestan was part of the Median, Parthian and Persian Empires. People who lived there were Zoroastrians, just like the Persians. Later on the Arabs defeated the Persians in the Caucasus and people of Dagestani converted into Islam.
But before Islam, and before the Arab conquests, the area what you call Dagestan nowadays was part of the Medo-Parthian-Persian Empires.
At the end, it is all about politics and war. Lands change hands fast. The Dagestan region changed hands frequently between the Persians and Russians. But at the end the Russians won because Dagestan is part of Russia nowadays
Nevertheless once the whole Caucasus was part of the ancient Aryan World of the Zoroastrians.

^Right but it doesnt mean Iran is the sole owner of these lands. Conquering doesnt automatically conclude ownership. Using this logic, Saudi arabia owns the entire levant lmao
