Armenian Americans Armenian Americans (Armenian: ամերիկահայեր , "amerikahayer") are citizens or residents of the United States who have total or partial Armenian ancestry. They form the second largest community in the Armenian diaspora after Armenians in Russia. The first major wave of Armenian immigration to the United States took place in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Thousands of Armenians settled in the United States following the Hamidian massacres of the mid-1890s and the Armenian Genocide of 1915 in the Ottoman Empire. Since the 1950s many Armenians from the Middle East (especially from Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Egypt and Turkey) migrated to America as a result of political instability in this region. At around the same time immigration from the Soviet Union began. It accelerated in the late 1980s and has continued after the dissolution of the U.S.S.R. in 1991 due to socio-economic and political reasons.
