And finally, the remaining Armenians were called from their home, thinking that they were going to be relocated, and marched to concentration camps in the middle of the dessert, where they would die from lack of food and water. In the end, western scholars predict that over 500,000 Armenians were killed in this massacre between the years
Armenians first migrated to North America in large numbers following the massacres of 1894–95 at the hands of the Ottoman Empire. An attempted genocide during World War I (1914–18) led to another influx. Finally, the rise of Arab nationalism during the 1950s led to the emigration of tens of thousands of Armenians from Islamic countries throughout the Middle East. In the U.S. census of 2000 and the Canadian census of 2001, 385,488 Americans claimed Armenian descent, while 40,505 did so in Canada. The early centers of Armenian settlement in the United States were New York City, Boston, and Fresno, California.
The Armenian people had a lot to move on from. Almost all their population was wiped out. The Kurdish Genocide was centrally planned and administered by the Iraqi Government against the entire Kurdish population. In Sarafian Fernandes’ paper “After 16 March 1988, one word came to symbolize the tragedy of the Kurds -- Halabja. Halabja is the Kurdish Auschwitz; not because the scale of the massacre was comparable with that of the Nazi death camp, but because the victims were chosen merely because they were Kurdish civilians.” In the beginning before the genocide, Armenians, Kurds and Turks lived in relative harmony in the Ottoman Empire for centuries.
It began in April of 1915 when the Ottoman government set upon the systematic discrimination of its Armenian population. This persecution continued until the Ottoman Empire died and was replaced by the Republic of Turkey in 1923. The Armenian population of the Ottoman state was about two million in 1915. One million had perished by 1918 while hundreds and thousands became homeless and stateless. By 1923 the entire Armenian population of Anatolian Turkey had disappeared.

Marking the first rays of the new sun in the eastern sky, he gave the order to ataku. Zabijanie begun. Seven years after the creation of ethnic cleansing in Boston, New England. This time, it was more "successful" you killing over five hundred Algonquin in a raid on his hometown.
Small groups began to form, each planning their own path to Constantinople; that was where they would meet. Their plan was to attack the Turkish forces in Constantinople and regain control of the city. The pope called for all knights, kings, warriors and even commoners to take up arms and get back the holy land. The Christian armies talked with the Byzantium emperor, Alexius I Comnenus, and agreed to return any of the old land that was recaptured. The armies were unsure about this agreement, however, they agreed to the treaty anyhow.
After being humiliated by nationwide and worldwide newspapers, in September 1993, the Metropolitan Museum of Art issued an apology and sent back the Lydian treasures to Turkey. This was the first time in history that one of the most important museums in the world was sued by another, much smaller museum and won. With the successful return under his belt, Acar describes the vital location of Turkey as, “Most everyone and everything has passed through here: war, culture, philosophy, religion, food” and that is why it is important to keep antiquities close to home. Turkey has seen the effects of the different empires and religions on the pieces of artwork throughout the centuries and displays a wide range of them at national museums. But since the Lydian treasures have been displayed, they are still

“Human Rights Watch” called this 1992 massacre carried out by Armenian military forces against 613 Azerbaijani civilians, including 106 women and 63 children, as "the largest massacre to date in the conflict." Major U.S. and international media outlets such as the New York Times, Washington Post, Newsweek, Los Angeles Times, Independent and others reported about the massacre with horror. While all perpetrators of the tragic events mentioned by ACR 96 were caught, tried and sentenced by the court of law, the executors of 1992 Khojaly Massacre, to this day, have never been brought to justice. Therefore, I call on the California State Assembly members to unanimously reject this flawed, biased, and unjust resolution ACR 96, which encourages racial animosity and hatred.
