Eiland and Dickran Kouymjian https://doi.org/10.1093/gao/9781884446054.article.T004089 Published online: 2003 updated bibliography, 26 May 2010 Country in the southern part of the Transcaucasian region; its capital is Erevan. Present-day Armenia is bounded by Georgia to the north, Iran to the south-east, Azerbaijan to the east and Turkey to the west. From 1920 to 1991 Armenia was a Soviet Socialist Republic within the USSR, but historically its land encompassed a much greater area including parts of all present-day bordering countries (see fig.). At its greatest extent it occupied the plateau covering most of what is now central and eastern Turkey (c. 300,000 sq. km) bounded on the north by the Pontic Range and on the south by the Taurus and Kurdistan mountains. During the 11th century another Armenian state was formed to the west of Historic Armenia on the Cilician plain in south-east Asia Minor, bounded by the Taurus Mountains on the west and the Amanus (Nur) Mountains on the east. Its strategic location between East and West made Historic or Greater Armenia an important country to control, and for centuries it was a battlefield in the struggle for power between surrounding empires. Periods of domination and division have alternated with centuries of independence, during which the country was divided into one or more kingdoms.

Revive the Soil
REVIVE THE SOIL Goal To combat extreme poverty, unemployment and emigration, and to elevate the quality of life of Armenians through the promotion of agricultural development. Objectives To provide agricultural equipment to the community of Lori Berd, which will help to bet-ter cultivate and utilize arable land, and ultimately elevate the quality of life for resi-dents in all of the region’s nine villages. Project Description & Background Lori is the second poorest region of Armenia, and Lori Berd is its poorest community. Nearly 1,490 families (5,967 inhabitants) live in this community’s nine villages of Agarak, Bovadzor, Lejan, Koghes, Hovhanadzor, Yaghdan, Sverdlov, Urut and Lori Berd. There is much fertile, yet uncultivated land in this area. Further, most of the agricultural machinery used by this community has not been replaced since the fall of the Soviet Union. As a result it is not sufficient for proper cultivation. While the soil in this area is very good for growing potatoes and grain, it mostly remains untouched. This project will enable the Lori Berd community to purchase one tractor and one drill-ing machine, which will benefit 1,490 families who currently live in poverty. Equipment will be loaned out to families so they can use it to cultivate their land, harvest their own products, and then sell those products to earn income and/or consume themselves. Lori Berd’s Community Council will manage the use of equipment, which will be rotat-ed between families on a consistent basis. The support given through this particular project will also combat increasing emigration as many who live in Armenia’s rural regions, while they possess fertile land, may not have the means to capitalize from it.

Environmental Risk Assessment of Heavy Metal Pollution in Armenian River Ecosystems: Case Study of Lake Sevan and Debed River Catchment Basins

Due to increasing growth in the mining sector, pollution has become a serious threat to water resources and aquatic biodiversity and is causing unfavorable environmental changes and human health hazards. The aim of the present study was to investigate and assess the environmental risks of heavy metal pollution of river ecosystems in the Lake Sevan and Debed River catchment basins in Armenia, and a thorough study of their qualitative and quantitative parameters. Water samples were taken from the risky river sites of the Sevan and Debed basins in May and August 2013 and 2014. Investigations showed that due to mining and metallurgical industrial activities and the insufficient management of industrial waste and wastewater, the river ecosystems in these territories were exposed to heavy metal pollution, the degree of which in some sites of the Sotq, Masrik (Lake Sevan catchment basin), Debed, Alaverdi, Akhtala, and Chochkan (Debed River catchment basin) rivers may have posed health risks to aquatic life as well as to humans (at least in the case of river water used for drinking purposes).

Kitabda Azərbaycanın tarixi torpaqları olan Qərbi Azərbaycan (indiki Ermənistan) ərazisində ermənilər tərəfindən adı dəyişdirilmiş 953 toponimin siyahısı verilmişdir. ISBN 978-9952-83-599-1 © Əziz Ələkbərli, 2020 İndiki Ermənistan Respublikasının ərazisi qədim Azərbaycan torpağıdır. Bu, tarixi faktdır. Heç uzağa getmək lazım deyil. XX əsrin əvvəllərində çar Rusiyası tərəfindən dərc edilmiş xəritələrə baxmaq kifayətdir. Hər kəs görər ki, indiki Ermənistanın bütün ərazisindəki toponimlərin, demək olar ki, mütləq əksəriyyəti Azərbaycan mənşəlidir.

Tarixdə ilk dövlətlərini isə 1918-ci ildə Cənubi Qaf- qazda Ararat Respublikası adı ilə yaratdılar.
