Video Chronology of the History of Armenia

Someone did an excellent job making the chronology of the territory of Armenia throughout different historical periods and ruling dynasties.

I have always felt the need for such a compilation which could make it possible to quickly clarify the ruler and the territory in a given period of the history of Armenia.

It is a pity that the chronology begins with the Kingdom of Van (Urartu). Let me remind you that the date of the establishment of Armenia stated in Khorenatsi’s “History of Armenia” was confirmed by geneticists, and this is much, much earlier than the period indicated in the video.

The video was published by Khey Pard who has an impressive number of subscribers and a lot of videos of this kind. Most likely, he himself made this video. Thank you for it!
