Armenian diaspora community

The Armenian diaspora refers to the global community of people of Armenian heritage who live outside Armenia. This widespread population resulted from historical events like conflicts and economic hardships, prompting many to migrate over centuries. Today, Armenian communities are established across countries such as the United States, Russia, France, Lebanon, and Iran. They often maintain cultural traditions, language, and religious practices while integrating into their host countries. The diaspora plays a vital role in supporting Armenia economically, politically, and culturally, and helps preserve Armenian identity and heritage around the world.
