    yes.1.5 million people died.
    One of the reasons is that Armenian volonteers joined the Russian army during WW1.
    Also they declared secession from the Ottoman empire

    If you want a definitive report of the Armenian genocide, read “Passage to Ararat.”

    It was not officially classified as a genocide. The word genocide was coined during the Second World War. But looking back, it was a definite genocide by the Ottoman Turks.
