Byzantine Armenia, my love.⁣

Making a major component of the Byzantine army, Armenians played a very important role in the Eastern Roman Empire. They were found in all areas of Roman life, from military leaders to scholars to traders to politicians, with several even becoming emperor (though having to become Roman to do so).⁣ Sargis himself was often a mercenary for Byzantium/Theodora, playing the role of her bodyguard at points. They often worked together and became quite close, with palace gossip often speculating how far the relationship truly went between their sacred personification and her knight “Sergios.”⁣

However, this isn’t to say things were perfect between them. Political and religious differences often put them at odds with each other, and Theodora was not always the kindest to those who were non-Roman (Armenians were about the bare minimum for being a “civilized people” in Byzantium).⁣ Despite the power Armenians had cultivated within the military over centuries, they were eventually replaced and left as a divided people. This division would come back to bite Theodora, as it turns out that effectively nuking your main guard isn’t a great idea. The Eastern Roman Empire would be invaded by the Turks, and the Armenian borderlands were powerless to stop it. In the end, a weakened Sargis would survive the fall and bitterly celebrate her decline.

I feel like I finally have an Armenia design that I’m fully proud of. The others were too young looking and I feel like that didn’t fit for a country as old as Armenia. Granted, he still looks young for his age but it’s an improvement over the last few designs, i think.

The year is 1918, the Caucasus trio has recently split up after attempting to be a single nation for one (1) month, and there's no way they would ever be in the same room like this.

Turkey, France and China may have a gourmet club but S. Korea, Armenia and USA are the barbecue bros!

South Korea has some tasty prime rib that is grilled on a Korean grill.

Armenia(my OC) has some pork roasted on a huge skewer that was roasted over a khoravat(Armenian grill).

And America has a backyard cheeseburger that was cooked up on his own grill.
