2025 Armenia
Although small in size, carries immense historical and cultural weight. Marked by the 1915 genocide and a vast diaspora, it has preserved its identity through adversity. Mount Ararat stands as a spiritual heart and symbol of resistance, while the Mother Armenia statue in Yerevan watches over the city. A land shaped by Christian heritage, Soviet traces, and a mix of peoples, Armenia holds a unique identity woven from memory and contrasts. Cities like Gyumri recall its past, cemeteries honor the fallen, yet a cosmopolitan youth projects the country into the future. Armenia welcomes visitors with its blend of history, resilience, and hospitality.
