Armenia
Armenia is a landlocked country located in the mountainous Armenian Highlands of the South Caucasus region at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia. Its capital and largest city is Yerevan. Armenia is one of the world’s oldest continuously inhabited regions and was the first country to adopt Christianity as a state religion in 301 AD.
The Armenian language is the official language, and the Armenian Apostolic Church is a key cultural institution. Modern Armenia has a parliamentary republic government and a population of about 3 million. It has a rich history marked by ancient kingdoms, foreign domination, and a deeply rooted cultural identity.
Armenia’s economy is based on mining, agriculture, and technology, and it faces ongoing tensions with neighboring Azerbaijan, especially over the Nagorno-Karabakh region.
