Comment
The Battle of Sardarapat (Armenian: Սարդարապատի ճակատամարտ; Turkish: Serdarabad Savaşı) was a battle in the Caucasus campaign of the First World War fought near the town of Sardarapat (now Armavir in Armenia) from May 24 to May 26, 1918. With Sardarapat only forty kilometers from Yerevan, the battle is seen not only as having halted the advance of the Turkish invaders, but above all as having prevented the annihilation of the Armenian nation.
