Crypto-armenians

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Crypto-Armenians are Armenians in Turkey who have retained their Armenian ethnic identity, if not their religious identity (most are Muslims). The term was introduced by the Armenian Patriarchate of Constantinople, who distinguished them from Turkified or Kurdified Armenians, in that they still identify as Armenians. According to the concept, although Crypto-Armenians may be Muslim, they are distinct from so-called Islamized Armenians, who chose to assimilate to Turkish ways before the hostile climate of the Armenian Genocide (cf. Crypto-Jews). Since the Turkish government became more liberal after the 1960s, many Crypto-Armenians have converted back to Christianity and changed their names to more typically Armenian styles.
