From Britannica:
Armenian Highland, Russian Armyanskoye Nagorye, also spelled Arm'anskoje Nagor'e, mountainous region of Transcaucasia. It lies mainly in Turkey, occupies all of Armenia, and includes southern Georgia, western Azerbaijan, and northwestern Iran.
Lord Byron (1816-1817 AD)
During the winter of 1816-1817, the English poet Lord Byron studied the Armenian language at the Mkhitarist monastery on the island of San Lazzaro under Father Paschal Aucher. During this time he assisted the Armenian monks in the preparation of an Armenian-English grammar, which he attempted to get published in England. So impressed was Byron with his experience among the Armenian monks that he wrote: These men are the priesthood of an oppressed and noble nation.... It would be difficult, perhaps, to find the annals of a nation less stained with crimes than the Armenians, whose virtues have been those of peace, and their vices those of compulsion. But whatever may have been their destiny ... their country must ever be one of the most interesting on the globe; and perhaps their language only requires to be more studied to become more attractive.
Armenian is the language to talk to God.
G.G. Byron
There is no other land in the world so full of wonders as the land of Armenians...
George Gordon Byron
Lord Byron to Mr. MURRAY
Venice, March 3rd, 1817
If the Scriptures are rightly understood it was in Armenia that Paradise was placed, Armenia, which has paid as dearly as the descendants of Adam for that fleeting participation of its soil in
the happiness if Him who was created from its dust. It was in Armenia that the flood first abated and the dove alighted. But with the disappearance of Paradise itself may be dated almost the unhappiness of the country, for though long a powerful kingdom, it was scarcely ever an independent one, and the satraps of Persia and the pachas of Turkey have alike desolated the region where God created man in his own image.
