Armenianshavehistorically inhabited the "Armenian Highlands", a vast sectionofmountains and valleys across eastern Anatolia and theSouthernCaucasus. Armenian vassal states, principalities, kingdomsandempires would rise and fall in different parts of thishighlandduring history. They were only unified once, just beforethe timeof Christ in the empire of Tigran the Great, stretchingfrom theCaspian to the Mediterranean Sea. Much of the history wasspentunder the domination of the great powers of the region. Thewesternparts of Armenia were for long periods under Byzantine orOttomanTurkish rule, while the eastern parts were under Persian orRussianrule. These empires often fought their wars on Armenianterritory,using Armenian soldiers. It was a rough neighborhood, butArmeniansmanaged to hold on to their language and church, andprosperwhenever given a chance. Being located on the silk road,Armeniansbuilt a network of merchant communities and ties extendingfromeastern Asia to Venice. Eventually, with the onslaughtofnationalism, Armenians paid a heavy price for their religionandtheir envy-inducing wealth.
