TY - JOUR TI - Armenia and Iran: The Birth of Two Nations in Late Antiquity AU - Daryaee, Touraj TI - Armenia and Iran: The Birth of Two Nations in Late Antiquity AB - This paper discusses the idea of Armenian and Iranian identity in 3rd century CE. It is proposed that the bordering region of the Armeno-Iranian world, such as that of the Siwnik‘ and its house saw matters very differently from that of the Armenian kingdom. The Sasanians in return had a vastly different view of Armenia and Georgia as political entities, and used their differences to the benefit of their empire.
