The correct answer is: D) Over one million people were persecuted and killed.

The Armenian Genocide took place in the Ottoman Empire from srping 1915 through autumn 1916 under the Young Turk government. It refers to the deportation and mass killing campaign against the Armenians living there. It is estimated that aproximately 1.5 million Armenians populated that region before the genocide, at least 664,00, to 1.2 million were killed. It is important to say that the main objective of the government was to destroy the whole armenian population, that is the reason it is called a genocide.
