The Armenian Genocide “The fallout caused by denial was inherited by later generations of Armenians, linking them to the fateful days of 1915, and compelling them to set the record straight.” This was written by author Michael Bobelian, who wrote about not only the events of the Armenian genocide, but the continual denial of it that continues even today. Today, despite pressure from around the world, the Turkish Government still continues to deny the events that occurred against the Armenian…

In the span of two years, 1.2 million Armenians were murdered by the Turks (“The Armenian Genocide (1915-16): In Depth”). The elimination of the Armenians could be blamed mostly on the Turks because of the lack of trust from the Turks towards the Armenians during World War Ι. This is known as the Armenian Genocide, although Turkey refuses to consider it a genocide to this day. Since all the stages of genocide are completely evident in history, as well as the murder of millions of people, this…

Are Turkish Armenians Victim or Survivals Last October on the 29th, Turkey had celebrated the Turkish Republic day’s 93 anniversary. Every single government representative talked about the independence “War” and the great victory of the proclamation of The Turkish Republic by Mustafa Kamal Ataturk (Hardy).

inhabitants of Constantinople and ‘Turks’ on the twenty-fourth page (the prior twenty-three depicting both the siege and lamentation of citizenry); the author maintains a relatively objective usage of adjectival descriptions, refraining from the emotionally and religiously amplified approach of Thomas the Eparch and Joshua Diplovatatzes, and attempts to convey the event with accuracy. Contained within the pertinent sections of the document are depictions of the ‘Turks’ who “sought out the…

Vlad the Impaler. This came from his habit of punishment by impalement, displaying them on stakes. He would become well known for his cruelty.The Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund founded the Order of the Dragon in 1410, to defend Europe from the Ottoman Turks and uphold Christianity. Vlad's father, Vlad II, joined the order and became known as Vlad Dracul, or Vlad the dragon. As such, Vlad III became Vlad Dracula. This means “the son of the dragon”. Vlad III was born in the year 1431 in…

One major concern was what the best base for the Ottoman Empire was. The Young Turks championed Pan-Turkic ideals of unifying ethnically or culturally-related Turkic populations under the same empire. One Pan-Turkist called Yusuf Akçuraoğlu argued that Turkism was a better basis for the Ottoman Empire than Islam or Ottomanism. There…

Vlad II was killed by the local boyars in 1447 along with Dracula’s half brother Mircea. Not long after this, Vlad II went on a campaign to regain his father’s throne.

The Armenian Holocaust was a time of pure and utter despair, it was a brutal genocide that killed approximately 1.5 million people. It took place in the Ottoman Empire; the Turkish Armenians wanted to make the empire thoroughly Turkish and they especially wanted to get the Christian Armenians out of the empire. As a result, there were massacres and deportations that ended in many deaths of horrific exterminations. The exterminations consisted of torturing, enslavement, and deportations with no…
