Why the Armenians in Anatolia disappeared

At the dawn of the 20th century, the Armenian people formed one of the most prominent Christian communities within the Ottoman Empire. With roots in Anatolia stretching back over two millennia, Armenians had developed a rich culture, a distinct language, and a deeply ingrained presence in the eastern regions of the empire. Yet, this ancient population had been devastated by the end of the First World War. What led to the near-erasure of Armenians from Anatolia remains one of the most debated and tragic chapters of modern history. #armenia #turkey #news
