The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to the Armenian genocide.[a]

The Armenian genocide was the systematic destruction of the Armenian people and identity in the Ottoman Empire during World War I. Spearheaded by the ruling Committee of Union and Progress (CUP), it was implemented primarily through the mass murder of around one million Armenians during death marches to the Syrian desert and the forced Islamization of others, primarily women and children.[1][2][3]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ↑ The names of the Armenian genocide are different in the English, Turkish, and Armenian languages, and have led to political controversies around the issue of Armenian genocide denial and Armenian genocide recognition. Although the majority of historians writing in English use the word "genocide", other terms exist. See Terminology of the Armenian genocide for more information.
