Borders
Throughout history, several Armenian kingdoms existed on what is called the Armenian Highland, where Armenian life and culture was also developed. Due to its high altitude, it was also known as The Armenian Plateau, Land of the Mountains, or Mountainous Island.
Numerous mountain chains and plateaus adorn the Armenian Highland, which is located at an average of 1500–1800 m above sea level, between the Asia Minor and Iranian Plateau, occupying a territory of approximately 400,000 km2.
