Why are the Armenians angry with Turks?

Armenians harbor historical grievances against Turks primarily due to the Armenian Genocide, which occurred during World War I when an estimated 1.5 million Armenians were systematically killed or forcibly displaced by the Ottoman Empire. This event has left a lasting scar on Armenian identity and collective memory. Additionally, ongoing disputes over recognition of the genocide and conflicts over territory, particularly in Nagorno-Karabakh, contribute to the strained relations between Armenians and Turks today. The lack of acknowledgment and reparations from Turkey continues to fuel anger and resentment within the Armenian community.
