Just goes to show how complicated that area of the world is and why tradition and culture are so important to those that live there.
What do you do when multiple ethnicities have centuries old claim to the same piece of land?
It’s also worth looking at the maps that show the Armenian diaspora before and after the genocide
Shit map, I can’t differentiate Armenians from greeks
These borders were meaningless in 1886.It’d be much more interesting if Georgia and Azerbaijan were included at least (and even more with adjacent territories to the west and suth).
Oh gee is someone now going to lay claims on half of Armenia now?
Now show map of modern turkey ethnic composition in 1886
Looks like Bosnia
Inland Greeks??? What is this sorcery?
Old maps of Bulgaria have the Greeks serve as an indication to where the ports are.
