The systematic extermination of about 1.5 million Armenians by the Ottoman government during and after World War I inspired the formulation of a new term that would come to haunt the modern "civilized" world, which was genocide. It was a harbinger of other genocides that would deeply scar and stain the twentieth century. To this day, Turkey denies the genocide, instead claiming that the victims died of starvation or the violence of isolated gangs or the unintended effects of legitimate deportation. These ongoing denials and evasions have generated enormous debate, criticism, and controversy, all of which is laid out here for readers to sift through and analyze, and within which they can pursue and locate the facts.
