Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    This map shows the border between Russian and Turkish territories duringthe 19th century. The thick black line shows the border before the treaty of Berlin (1878, when Turkey lost Kars). The border at Igdir remained the same after the treaty. The "strip" is clearly shown, and is part of Russian territory, NOT Persia. The map is on page 176 of "An Historical Atlas of Armenia" by Robert Hewson.

    There some half dozen other maps in the same atlas that show the same feature within Russian territory. Case closed.

    Listen anus, you were shown better maps than what you provided, and they showed that there was not a border prior to the 30s. You, being an overgrown child, could not admit that you were wrong.

    NOW CASE CLOSED
    For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
    to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.

      So many pathetic Armenians and their laughable "historic facts". Rather than face the truth, they prefer peering at a tiny 1:4,000,000 map in a 19th century child's general atlas rather than reading what is the definitive work on the historical geography of Armenia (written by the acknowledged experts in the field). At least most Turks secretly know the "historical facts" they are told are true aren't true ... and a growing number are prepared to say it.

        And even one of Catharsis' small-scale maps shows it!

          Bell, when they wrote the definition of the word insanity I am disappointed they didn't include xxxxxing about how genocide denying historians from Istanbul make better maps than the rest of the world.

            The border between the OTTOMAN Empire (not Turkey) and Imperial RUSSIA (Armenia didn't exist) was always moving back and forth...what the hell are you two arguing about? the existence of a map doesn't mean that the governments recognized it...if it were so, I'd grab a globe and a crayon and go to town on that fukker.

              Listen you little puke, I know now playing stupid is your forte, but just think that the information here is not for you, but for those people that have a little of a sound mind. Got it?

                No it is not, because you again FAILED to provide a map from THAT ERA like I have several from the 19th and early 20th centuries, but wait they are "amateurish" right? You only put a modern rendition, and if anything it can be claimed as "amateurish" since the author has failed to take in account the 9 km. strip transfer. Remember? You were the one who insisted the map has to be from that time. I can show you hundreds of modern maps (like the first one) without the strip clearly lying in Persia, but you will call those "amateurish." So do you have an actual contemporary map or no?

                  This source says:
                  To legalize the situation, on January 23, 1932, Turkey and Iran signed an agreement in which Turkey gained certain Iranian territories around Mount Ararat and Iran received other territories around Van.
                  This one says:

                  Even in the Ataturk era, Turkey had distinct interest in Azerbaijan. When the Turkish-Iranian borders were set in 1932, Turkey made sure that it maintained a tiny piece of land contiguous to the Armenian-controlled but Azeri-populated Autonomous Republic of Nakhichevan.
                  Plenty of sources here (little snippets can be seen in the few lines) that suggest that something went down definitely about that corridor to Nakhichevan between Iran and Turkey.

                    Right, you did better with your black and white graphic which sure is a "historical" - being a rendition from sometime in the late 20th century (?). So there you have it. You have been called on to provide an AUTHENTIC (contemporary) map from that time, I have several which have clearly shown the demarcation YOU HAVE PROVIDE NO HISTORICALLY FACTUAL MAP. NONE. Yet you keep bringing up scales that NONE of your maps even come close to reflect.

                      Thank you very much Federate for the sources. I read it in several of diplomatic publications from the time about the land transfers, but was not able to find it online, really appreciate it.

                      Apparently, someone for some reason (who calls Nakhichevan by its Turkic distorted variant) wants to desperately "prove" that Turkey always had a land link with Nakhichevan.
