The turkish government killed, either through murder or deportation to labor camps, as many as of how many armenians? a. 5 million armenians b. 2.5 million armenians c. 2 million armenians d. 1.5 million armenians e. 1 million armenians

The correct answer is - D. 1.5 million Armenians.

The Turkish government, starting in 1915 made a genocide over the Armenian population in Turkey. The Armenian genocide is also known as the Armenian Holocaust. The genocide started with the arrest of Armenian intellectuals in Istanbul, moved to Ankara, and eventually murdered. In the coming years, the Turks killed around 1.5 million Armenians, most of which were grown man, while the women and children were mostly deported.

There wasn't any intervention by the international community about this genocide, so the Turks had free hands to perform it. With it, huge damage has been made on the Armenian population for generations to come.
