In the early 20th century Armenians suffered in the genocide inflicted on them by the Ottoman government of Turkey, in which 1.5 million Armenians were killed and many more dispersed throughout the world via Syria and Lebanon.

Armenia's Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said early Tuesday he signed an agreement with the leaders of Azerbaijan and Russia to end the war over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region. I was reading an article :)

Thank you! It is Artsakh!

Yes, Ruzanna! :)

Karabakh in Turkish means Black (dark) yards.

Besides, Azerbaijan was supported by Turkey militarily and politically.

Nakhichivan, used to be Armenian land as well.

Hello everyone. Thank you Alene and others for doing this! Even knowing so much of this information myself, there is so much more to learn for me and I’m very happy to be here

How does the erasure impact how families raise their children?

great question angeli!

How do we preserve identity and culture when there may be different experiences and perspectives passed down academically and otherwise?

Thank you

Very well described Arthur

Thank you Arthur for the information. I’ve been a part of several musical projects to raise funds for the people and soldiers of Artsakh and continue to make music for Armenia and Artsakh
