Armenia. Yerevan. A policeman walks in front of the Saint Gregory the Illuminator Cathedral and the equestrian statue of Andranik. The Saint Gregory the Illuminator Cathedral, also known as the Yerevan Cathedral is currently the largest cathedral of the Armenian Apostolic Church in the world. The Armenian Apostolic Church is the national church of the Armenian people. Part of Oriental Orthodoxy, it is one of the most ancient Christian communities. Andranik Ozanian, commonly known as Andranik (25 February 1865 – 31 August 1927) was an Armenian military commander and statesman, the best known fedayi and a key figure of the Armenian national liberation movement. From the late 19th century to the early 20th century, he was one of the main Armenian leaders of military efforts for the independence of Armenia. Yerevan, sometimes spelled Erevan, is the capital and largest city of Armenia. 10.10.2019 © 2019 Didier Ruef
