In 1915, the Armenians were exiled from their land, and in the
process of deportation 1.5 million of them were killed. The
1915-1916 annihilation of the Armenians was the archetype of modern
genocide, in which a state adopts a specific scheme geared to the
destruction of an identifiable group of its own citizens. Official
German diplomatic documents are of great importance in
understanding the genocide, as only Germany had the right to report
day-by-day in secret code about the ongoing genocide. The motives,
methods, and after-effects of the Armenian Genocide echoed strongly
in subsequent cases of state-sponsored genocide. Studying the
factors that went into the Armenian Genocide not only gives us an
understanding of historical genocide, but also provides us with
crucial information for the anticipation and possible prevention of
future genocides.
