Abstract :The article deals with the toponyms used in Azerbaijani folk tales. It is noted that in Azerbaijani folktales, space is based on the opposition of native and foreign, and toponyms, respectively, represent native and foreign places. As a rule, the place where the hero was born, grew up is presented as his native place in fairy tales, the place that opposes this place and threatens him with war is introduced as a foreign place. As a result, the place where the hero lives is expressed with the words such as attributes like own, native, while the foreign place is given with the attributes such as distant, alien, dangerous, enchanted. The analysis of toponyms shows that the ethnos perceives the place that owned and lived as his native place, and characterizes the states that are far away from this geography and has conflicts with them as foreign places.
