Thank you Zartonk, That is wonderful.

Is this About Miss Mutafian?

No. No. Never mind. Strike that.

We have been screaming to the world that we are the FIRST CHRISTIAN NATION/STATE to no avail.

Perhaps now the world can see how we transitioned from a cult of “priestesses”, without beards to that of “priests” with beards.

Brings to mind Levon Shant’s “Hin Astvatsner”.

You are welcome Arpa.

 

Looks promising, although I don't know weather the plot glorifies our culture prior to the conversion or the conversion itself. I hope it's not another "we're the first nation ever", because the way I see it, no matter who was first, (almost) the entire globe is Christian, but only one group can claim to be ARMENIAN.

Fantastic website by the way. I had come across it a while back, but lost it. Thanks for posting that.
