Warum kommen so viele armenische Einwanderer im Ausland aus dem westlichen Teil des Landes? Liegt es hauptsächlich an der Geschichte mit dem osmanischen Reich oder gibt es mehr Gründe dafür?
Auch zu diesem Thema, in welcher Region Armeniens ist heutzutage im Allgemeinen finanziell besser dran.

at the very conservative there are 1 million armenian speakers in russia. Very easily add another half a million. The number of armenians in total can be in the millions. There are also 40k armenians in spain most of whom know armenian.
these numbers are for Armenian **speakers**. Many Armenians in Diaspora dont even speak Armenian.
To Answer your question- Yes, the reason is the Armenian Genocide in Turkey.
To answer your second question- Armenia is not divided these days. All of the Western Armenia is occupied and ethnically cleansed by Turkey.
P.S.- You can take out Az/jan from the list, they also ethnically cleansed Artsakh, so their number is close to 0/
The number of Armenians in Lebanon is around 50,000.
I doubt if 10% of Argentinian Armenians can speak Armenian, though they tend to be quite patriotic. Probably even less than 10% in Brazil.
Also, there are essentially no Armenians in Azerbaijan as of their last genocidal ethnic cleansing 2 years ago.
Bulgaria is the second home to armenians! 🇧🇬❤️🇦🇲
This is outdated, there’s no Armenian speakers in Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
It is due to genocide and massacres, but saying people came from western Armenia in most of these countries is inaccurate, the USA old diaspora came from western Armenia, but majority is most likely eastern today. Same with Ukraine (old western Armenian colonies, and now mostly eastern). Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan should be eastern as well.
All these numbers are wrong! Completely wrong!
First off, France has around 1 million Armenians, with Armenian schools all over the country, so at least 50% of them speak Armenian.
Second, Lebanon has around 50,000 Armenians because most of them have left.
Third, almost all Syrian Armenians speak Armenian.
In Argentina, the number of Armenians sounds about right, but I can assure you that very few speak Armenian.
Germany has around 100,000 Armenians, most of whom moved recently from Armenia, Lebanon, or Syria, and almost all of them speak Armenian.
The number for Brazil is about right, but like in Argentina, very few speak Armenian.
The U.S. has around 2 million Armenians, and at least 50% of them speak Armenian. I have yet to meet an Armenian in Los Angeles, New Jersey, or Boston who doesn’t know basic Armenian.
And again, Armenians speak more Armenian today than 100 years ago when the language was prohibited.
If on average Armenians abroad were donating 100$ per year to the Armenian military it would 500 millions more +30% of what it is now, already record high.
Armenia should protect itself before Europe gets its shit together and does its job (this would require Georgia to cooperate,or at least would facilitate things)
As an Austrian who has been to many places in western Europe and also try to see if there is a local armenia church we can visit the „western armenian“ speakers numbers are complete bs
The only people I ever saw in these communities which spoke very broken western armenian were 70+ year old people who spoke more turkish than armenian in fact they only spoke armenian when they were talking to eastern armenians who couldn’t understand them
And don’t get me started on the youth there they couldn’t speak either when the parents were western armenians
In the us and Canada its different but for Europe these numbers are bs
These numbers are not accurate. Some of these countries have old or fake data, others can’t count because they don’t count by language.
>Also on this topic, which region of Armenia is nowadays generally better off financially, education and job wise, the western or eastern half?
Most Western speakers are descendants of genocide survivors and they have no connection to the modern Republic of Armenia or any lands that are currently a part of Armenia.
Most Eastern speakers are immigrants from the Republic of Armenia.
Iran is 35000 Armenian not 110000
The Armenian Diaspora in Ukraine and Central Asia doesn’t speak Western Armenian; this list is nonsense.
