095: The Armenian Origin Story
11/07/23 • 61 min
As we talked more and more about the Armenian role in the Roman Empire and the Latin Crusader Kingdom, we decided to do an origin story episode of the Armenians. This is to show just how influential they were in Anatolian history, how deep their history goes back in the region, and how they always found themselves squeezed between the empires in the East and the Empires in the West. This episode will cover the events of the Armenians who lived beyond the borders of the Roman Empire.
The History of Modern Greece Podcast covers the Greek people's events from the fall of Constantinople in 1453 to the Greek War of Independence in 1821-1832, through to the Greco-Turkish War from 1919 to 1922 to the present day.
