The Republic of Armenia lies between Turkey and Azerbaijan and is considered to be in both Europe and the Middle East. This country of about 3 million people is one of the oldest societies in the world. Armenia was the first nation to formally adopt Christianity as early as the 4th century, and today, 94 percent of the population belong to the Armenian Apostolic Church. A constitutional referendum that was approved in December 2015 will change the government to a parliamentary republic during the 2017-2018 election cycle.
Located on the Great Silk Road route, Armenia was frequently overrun by Turks, Russians, Arabs, and others. In recent history, Armenia acquired independence from the Soviet Union in September 1991. In 2015, the country decided against joining the European Union and joined the Russian-led Eurasian Customs Union.
Armenia has been developing the tourism sector and is becoming an increasingly popular destination. Some sites that tourists can enjoy are the Shikahogh State Reserve, the second largest forest reserve in the country, ancient monasteries, Mount Aragats, and Karahunj, which is made up of over 200 enormous stone tombs.
