Comment: This term is used in dozens of  in order to refer to the period in Eastern Armenian history that directly followed the Iranian/Persian period. One example: "''Announcements written in Armenian were circulated in Armenian villages, and Russian soldiers, some of them Armenian, together with Cossacks "strongly persuaded" any reluctant Armenian to leave Iran. Between 1828 and 1831, 35,560 Armenians left the Azarbayjan Province and moved into the newly formed Russian Armenian Province, which was soon identified as "Russian Armenia" in order to distinguish from "Turkish Armenia."'' -- George Bournoutian.
