M. Khorenatsi has a great quote about him. i'll post it later.



"Ayjm yes zvarjanum em, vor hasnum em ayn tegh@, yerb mer bnik nakhnii (Hayki) serundner@ tagavorutyan astijani en hasnum: Yes shat kpapagei, yor nrants jamanak ashkharh yekats linei"

Deffinitely the best Armenian king was Ara the Beautiful....... Guess why, Harut jan!

 

But seriously, it was Tigran the Great, of course.In his days Armenia was a huge EMPIRE!

 

Why don't we speak about a fav. queen, ha?

3 people already voted for Tigran II The Great.

 

but do you really think he was the best among our kings??

he didn't bring prosperity to Armenia.

he always kept Armenia in hostile situation.

he couln't even manage to protect his capital from Romans.

and even before he could enjoy the "park"(in Engl., please?) of his empire he gave up everything he fought for.
