Armeense Kwestie

Armeense kwestie De geschiedenis van de Armenen in de Ottomaanse rijk voert terug naar 1071, het jaar waarin de Armeniërs onder het gezag van de Sjeldjoeken kwamen. Hoewel de Armeniërs van veel vrijheid genoten onder de Sjeldjoeken, bereikte het pas zijn hoogtepunt onder het gezag van Fatih Sultan Mehmet, de Ottomaanse sultan die in 1453 Constantinopel had veroverd. Fatih Sultan Mehmet, had een verklaring afgegeven aan de Armeniërs dat de oprichting van de Armeense Patriarch mogelijk maakte. Dit betekende dat de Patriarch bevoegd was om geld te verzamelen, huwelijken te voltrekken en gevangenisstraffen uit te delen onder de Armeniërs. Tot het einde van de negentiende eeuw maakten de Armeniërs een gouden periode door. Ze waren vrijgesteld van dienstplicht en gedeeltelijk vrijgesteld van belasting. Ze vormden een welvarende laag van de bevolking. Ook hebben ze de kans gekregen om hoge functies te bekleden in handel, ambachten en zelfs in het bestuur van het Ottomaans rijk. - ermeni terror
