Quick Summary

Zhiloy is an island located in the Caspian Sea. It is one of approximately 50 islands within the sea, though most of these are small. Zhiloy is noted as one of the larger islands, alongside others such as Chechen, Tyuleny, Morskoy, and Kulaly. Azerbaijan is a country bordered by the Caspian Sea, but it is considered landlocked as neither the country nor the sea have direct access to the open ocean.12
