Armenians are evil, and Turkey has given them many outs to deal with this issue on a conciliatory basis -- by claiming that their collaboration/terrorism was part of "ethnic fighting" in the region, which is a generous interpretation. They rejected this because they really want/need to push the "genocide recognition by Turkey" to claim east Anatolia as their own. This is their ongoing project.
>>14854176No, it was a total social movement. They were well mobilized, and the people who weren't were later forcibly removed by Armenian leaders and the Russians in 1921 (after the 1915 uprising).
>>14854174Thanks. It's not well taught or discussed, and the Armenians count on that.
>>148541751. They have never had an independent state since 300BCE and even then it was a Persian vassal. They are welcome to win a state by feat of arms, but not by groveling after losing their revolution and attempt at seizing the land.
2. So? It was destroyed by Romans/Persians/Arabs/Khazars/Byzantines/Turks. They were also not the majority in east Anatolia.
3. Yes, Yerevan Khanate.
You seem to be confused by a lot of things so let me clear it up. Armenia is a word that refers to a geographic region in east Anatolia and it is a word from the Urartu language meaning Urartian. So the Armenians claim they are Armenians and descended from Armenia(URARTU). The language called Armenian today is not the language of the Urartians, and it was only written in the 4th c CE. "Armenian" is an IE language, and Urartian was an agglutinative language - not an IE language. The Urartu genetic remains are also not related to the people who call themselves Armenians today.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urartian_language#ClassificationDespite attempts to prove a link to modern Armenian, no such attempts have succeeded.
The people calling themselves Armenians emerged in the region around 4th c, and they wrote in an IE language unrelated to the Armenia language (Urartu)
