Armenian genocide happened in the dawn of the twentieth century. The time was really rather turbulent for the entire world. The first world war was raging relentlessly throughout the civilized world. The worst war to be ever experienced by humans. Amidst all of this, the Ottoman empire cracked down on Armenians living withing its borders. And figures suggest that the Ottoman empire killed off over one and a half million Armenians in the name of ethnicity and religion. It is like the holocaust that saw the deaths of six million Jews during the second world war. Many countries even to this day do not recognize the Armenian genocide.
