Lebanese Armenians : ウィキペディア英語版 | Armenians in Lebanon
The Armenians in Lebanon ((アルメニア語:Լիբանանահայեր) ''lipananahayer'', (アラビア語:اللبنانيون الأرمن)) are Lebanese citizens of Armenian descent. There has been an Armenian presence in Lebanon for centuries. According to Minority Rights Group International, there are 156,000〔(Lebanon Minorities Overview )〕 Armenians in Lebanon, around 4% of the population. Prior to the Lebanese Civil War, the number was higher, but the community lost a portion of its population to emigration. Prior to 1975, Beirut was a thriving center of Armenian culture with varied media production,〔Migliorino, Nicola. ''Constructing Armenia in Lebanon and Syria: Ethno-Cultural Diversity'', page 166〕 which was exported to the Armenian diaspora. ==History== Armenians first established contact with Lebanon when Tigranes the Great conquered Phoenicia from the Seleucids and made it part of his short-lived Armenian Empire. When the Roman Empire established its rule over both Armenia and ancient Lebanon, some Roman troops of Armenian origin went there in order to accomplish their duties as Romans. After Armenia converted to Christianity in 301, Armenian pilgrims established contact with Lebanon and its people on their way to Jerusalem; some of whom would settle there.
