Chapter: 9 Turkey's History

     In this post I decided to switch things up a little bit. Few days ago it was April 24. Ninety eight years ago, on April 24, 1915 Ottoman Empire decided to kill all the Armenians in Armenia and take away their land. The reason why I am blogging this post is because the Ottoman Empire took away many lands that belonged to the Armenians. I think that this relates to geography because it is about most of the geographies that Turkey has which at one point belonged to the Armenians. The genocide that happened 98 years ago, killed about 1.5 million Armenians. I  do not blame the Turkish generation today for the killings of that many Armenians, however it is their aunt sisters who have done the damage and took away the land and geographies that belonged to the Armenians. The only thing we ask for is for the genocide to be recognized.
Down below is a image of dead Armenians on the floor and the Turkish military standing above their heads.
