Armenian Genocide

The Armenian population was a group of people that fought end after end to gain their independence. The Turkish empire invaded the Armenian's homeland which led to years of rule by the Muslim Turks. As years passed by, Armenians were suckered into the Ottoman Empire. Many young Armenians were educated by the European universities and started to run for political roles. The Turkish Sultan was not in favor of that and started killing mass amounts of armenian citizens. The sultan days starting coming to an end, so a group of three young men, named the "Young Turkans" which seized full control of the government. They started forcing the armenians to follow all of the religious ways of being a turkan, they forced them to go against their culture and economic and political views. But the Young Turkans didn't care what they wanted, the glory was all for themselves. Soon after, World War I broke out the armenian people were abducted, tortured, deported, and starved. A great portion of the armenian people were sent to a desert where they were starved to death. They were put in concentration camps, it was estimated that one and a half million armenians were killed between the time of 1915-1918. That was a serious problem and isn't humane.

Whenever you read or see the word genocide, it is never a good feeling. Millions of people were killed. Most of the reasons why genocides occured was for the power. It is hard to believe that people can be this selfish when it comes to power. There is no reason for any of this stuff to happen. Killing mass amounts of people is not what any one would want and i dont know of anyone that thinks that genocides are good.
