Sip, what in the hell are you talking about... You think that Eropeans are Armenian? Wake up... Armenians are not the first people in the world, and the archeologists already traced the first proto-europeans migrating for north africa to europe. Armenians remind me of Hebrews thinking everyone came from them... There is no evidence that suggests either one, so stop trying to misinform people with outrages armenian fairy tale stories...

First of all I do have knowledge, but I simply think that Cilicia is not as improtant as the real Armenia, Cilicia was part of the Armenian Empire/Kingdom but thats about it... In the same way that Armenia was part of Persian and Turkish and Arabic and Russian empires... The most important part of Armenia was always Armenia proper (eastern Armenia)... Whats the matter can't handle an opinion, so you try to ban someone... If this is your Marxist idea of this post then I feel sad for you... I didn't use any bad language nor did I dirrectly offended anyone... I just put in my two cents... And I am not A Turkish idiot... As if you even knew what Turk meant...

Really? I didn't know that there is a region that was devoted to one country... Oh so Arabia is not in the middle east, its on the Arabian platau, and Iran has its own platau as well, so its not middle east right? These are the only regions that exist, Europe, Asia, Africa, Americas, and Australia, and some little islands in the pacific...

How about the Ararat on our flag idea, that would show Turkey, anyone?

LOL thats funny

common you cant think like that, just because they have it, so what, green belongs to all the humans not just to them... many people have many colors lets not care about their colors and just choose based on what we like and not on others reasons

maybe even the mountain Ararat on the flag would be nice

how about dark green black and white Green representing the nature Black representing the struggle and loss and white representing peace

We should have dominant colors not colors of apricot

Apricot... See, fruity!

Here is a geographical lesson for all... http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/am.html Armenia is in SouthWest Asia... or in a political sence, Middle East! Mountain Ararat is in middle east and not europe... Since Armenia belongs to the Ararat region,in which they praise the ancestrial mountain, it has no choice but to be a middle Eastern country (with western ideas)... Have some respect for our Urartian ancestors! The only way Armenia and its people would become European is if someone would physically remove it from near east and place it in Europe... By the way, can anyone explain what makes armenian culture european, because since the beginning of time their culture had always been known as near eastern(music,food,etc)...

Arvestaked, I was talking about the Armenian flagg, I dont know where you've gotten the idea about red? I am not from Canada... Im from USA... Armenian flagg should scream STRENGTH not SOS...

There is a big difference between being a Turk (Turkic) and being Turkish. Turkish means that you are from Turkey, a person who barely has Turkic genes, most Turkish people are a mixture of Armenian/Greek/Persian/Arab blood, Turk means you are Turkic (relating to Central/East Asian ethnicity). People misuse these words all the time. As for the Turkic ethnicity, Turkic people originated in western China, Chinese history recorded this fact, which exists in Central Asia till this day, that Turks originated form a wolf who saves a boys life and gives birth to the Hsiung-nu people in west china, who were pushed west to Altai mounatain where they became subjects of their Mongol cousins, and gained the name Turuk/Turk, thus the turks and mongols were under the banner flagg of the wolf at one point... Turks and Mongols were at one point undistinguishable in both race and culture... Their languages both belong to the same linguistic family tree and relate to one another. Original Turks were of Mongoloid/Chinese race who eventually conquered and mixed with caucasians in central Asia. Till this day, deep rooted words which are not borrowed, exist in the "Turkic" language which reflect the origin of western China... For example the word for water in Turkic is "SUI" in Mandarin Chinese its "SHUI" and in Cantonese Chinese its "SUI" as well... Also turkic words such as Dong=freezing, Vadi/Wa di=lowland, bey/bo=father's brother, ajia/jie=sister/female relative, Tan/Dan=sunrise, are the same in Chinese language... Unlike middle eastern Trurkish people, Most central asian Turks till this day contain about 50% of their original east asian genes, and the original Turkic motherland which is western China, is still inhabited by Turkic speaking populations, an area called Xinjiang... Turkey is a fake Turkofied country which is not even Turkic in genetics at all, except for few % of the population..........

I think our flag is kind of fruity, we should change it to more dominant and stronger colors... Orange?- common that just screams weakness...

Who cares about Cilicia... Armenia was known for the Armenia Proper and Armenia Minor not a little tiny far away island in the mediterranean sea which was controlled by Armenia/Greece for a while... Too small to be proud of...

Forget about it!

I wonder, why do Armenians try to be something that they are not... for example: Some Armenians claim their ethnicity as being white as the Europeans, and have a huge desire to belong to the European ethnical background. While it is true that Armenian people are partially of European descent, there lingers different types of racial background in the Armenian region. Urartians were not Indo-European, plus there many different types of people settled in the Near/Middle East... Armenians are a mixture of many different people, including Persians and Greeks, and Semites, and who ever disagrees with those facts are not bound by the facts of life nor the truth that is unwanted by the bulk of Armenian people... Persian tribes existed in that area just as long and to think that neibhors dont interact or mix is unreasonable... Persians and armenians were once very close, infact my mother brought a historic book from Armenia which specifies that the Persians and Armenians spoke a similiar language and were able to understand each other. The word Armen comes from the Armen tribe who were from the Greek region, Armens came to the current Armenian region and settled there. Many different people including the Urartians,Hittites,Medes,Parthians, and Semites lived there... Armen tribe concluded to be the most dominating, thus Hay people started to speak Armen(ian) language... Armenians are people of mixed race, and I know that most Armenians decline that fact... But! Take a look at Armenian people, some look white, some look like Indian, some like Afghano-Persian, some like Arabs/Jews... Some light skin most olive skin, some really dark skin... Ofcourse all the people in the world like to think they are pure, but in Middle East/Near East there are no pure race people, we are in the middle of all the regions of the world, south west of us is Africa, north west is Europe, east is the Orient... Every race came through the Near Eastern are, and to think that they haven't left any of their imprints on us is ubsurd, and even unrealistic. The so called Caucasian race does not exist unless they mean Georgians or south Russian areas. Europeans try to attribute everything they can to their own history... We, the Middle Eastern people are not of one race but of mixed origins, other wise we wouldn't look the way we do... Semites are not white though white people try to say the opposite, far from the truth. Semites are part white and part african and part middle eastern, in another words (mixed race people), but Europeans attribute semites to themselves. It goes the same for us. Modern day Armenians are a melting pot of middle east, concluded by modern day scholars (new evidence). I understand that before it was thought that Armenians are Thracio-Phrygian, true, but only partially. WE ARE A MIXED PEOPLE, and for all of you who don't accept the truth, wake up look around the (world) human history, and the faces of armenian people will tell their history to you. Most armenians look middle eastern, about quarter look european, and very few look a bit on the Indian side... plus look at our middle eastern culture (just take out Islam)... Lets be proud to have such strong mixed blood. (I realize that racist Armenians who wish to have been of a pure white race with their nazi like attitude will never acknowledge the facts of life). We all need to be proud of our own region (Near East or Middle East, or which ever one you choose) instead of trying to leach off the European race...
