Armenian Genocide
Rachael Price
The Armenian Genocide was very sick and torturous for the Armenian people. Many people were killed in brutal ways and forced to do things they didn't want to do. For example, the young Turks that had created their "killing squads" were made of murderers, ex-convicts and many other terrible people. They would often drown people in rivers, threw people off cliffs, crucified and buried the Armenians alive. The Turkish countryside was littered in corpses.

TURKIFICATION
Turkification is when the Turkish would take an Armenian and turn them to become Turkish people. They would kidnap women and children and convert them to Islamic nature before giving them to Turkish families.
The Turkish would also rape woman and force them to become "Harems" otherwise known as slaves.
