There is once again a country named Armenia, the capitol is Erevan. The Armenian people have been significant weavers since time immemorial. The Armenian people converted to Christianity in circa 303 AD by Gregory the Illuminator. By being a distinctly Christian people in in far western Asia the Armenians have been a people unto themselves and have developed a wonderfully distinct culture that blends the best of east and west.
