Product Description

How Periodic invasions, bloodsheds and genocides for more than thousand years in Armenian homeland from Arabs, Russians, Turks, Persians, Kurds and Tartar-Mongols made it a necessity for Armenians to leave their south Caucasus motherland and settle in foreign lands? How their dominance in the long-distance overland trade in the Eurasian continent helped them to build a stateless business empire spanning over continents from West to far East? How they collaborated with Mughals, Bengal Nawabs and British, French and Dutch East India Companies to continue their presence in India? How Kolkata played a role for the survival of Armenian language, religion, culture and nationalism? This book has tried to capture these socio-economic-cultural fabrics of Armenian existence in the city of Kolkata, India.
