Summary/Abstract: Armenians migrated from the places they lived in different periods of human history for various reasons. In their new living spaces, they organized opening ceremonies, commemorations and meetings for various statues in order to keep the Armenian identity alive and to keep the genocide alive in memory. Diaspora Armenians acted politically together with their other elements on different issues, such as the Karabakh issue. They provided financial support for the development of Armenia, the healing of the wounds caused by the disaster, especially the 1988 earthquake, and the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict as Armenia desired. They also established religious relations with Armenia. In this context, our study will focus on the political, economic and religious relations of Diaspora Armenians with Armenia.
