These villages seem so poor and undeveloped. It really makes you wonder if they are not cursed or something. When you look at the old pictures and maps, it almost seems like they were more developed and modern 90 years ago then than thay are now.

Also translator man doesnt talk about that visitor family are Armenian. He says "They migrated from here to America in 1890 and looking for their grandparents house".
