I had schoolfriends and neighbourers that were offsprings of Armenians survivors of the holocaust; and until I was 16 I didn't know that you are a separated nation, I had the idea that you are an other Greek tribe of Asia Minor.
Later I understood that it was the other way round...
Ancient Greeks, mainly, originated from Asia Minor or (Armenian plato if you like).
It is also interesting that the Armenian language, in contrast to other Indo‐European languages, has all phonetic sounds common to all Indo‐European languages.
Atkinson and Gray pointed out the direct connection with Armenian and Hittite on one hand and Tocharian (lived in Central Asia) on the other. According to Varbedian the Tocharians called themselves “Urums” or “Arams” (again the Ur-Ar-Or-Er-Ir alternatives that we have like Urmia or Arme or Haria or Armin/Ormin/Irmin/Ermin etc. – just a slight dialectic pronounciation of the vowel) and “Tocharian” was simply what the Greeks called these eastern Aryan populations.
@BeautySavesWorld "Language and Speech" a respected textbook used at the university level & my German professor would all argue that Tocharian's closest living language relative is going to be Hungarian, not Greek nor Armenian. Also there is a Tocharian A & B, of which there is hardly enough physical evidence to conclude anything else for certain. Most linguists concur that Tocharian A & B belongs in their own branch of the language tree.
@AshlynnBall Also, "Aryan" in history is what the followers of Arius, a Germanic tribal king of the 3rd & 4th century A.D. were called. His interpretation of the bible contradicted the current one at the time & made him seem to oppose the sacred power of the Pope. Again, both words mention mostly Germanic tribes, customs and languages. Whatever perversion was distorted from the word Aryan and the subsequent national pride that inferred, initially had nothing to do with skin color but religion.
There was a Bronze Age tribe of the Armens (Armans, Armani; Armenian: Արմեններ Armenner, Առամեններ Aṙamenner), either identical to or forming a subset of the Hayasa-Azzi.[11][12] In this case, Armenia would be an ethnonym rather than a toponym

Google or our mythology, there is big tablet which shows Armenian,Greek and Persian dieties, shows which one coincide and which one differ or non existent in other nation/nations...;-)
So we are separeted nations for 8500 years?

Thank for the video. We do have a deep and rich history which goes back over 12,000 years.
