Of the total Armenian population living worldwide ( 2004 est. about 8,000,000) only about 3,000,000 live in Armenia (and about 120,000 in Nagorno-Karabakh ). There are large Armenian communities in Canada ( Montreal, Quebec , Toronto, Ontario ), the United States ( Watertown, Massachusetts , Richmond Heights, Ohio , Fresno, California , Glendale, California ), Russia ( Rostov-on-Don , Greater Sochi , Moscow , Saint Petersburg ), Europe ( Geneva , Istanbul , Marseille , Odessa , Val-de-Marne , Lyon , Nice ), the Middle East ( Beirut , Aleppo , Tehran , Jolfa ), Australia , and South America ( São Paulo , Osasco , Rio De Janeiro , Buenos Aires , Caracas ), and together they comprise the Armenian Diaspora . The presentation of the Armenian Genocide committed by the Ottoman Empire, which is the reason why so many Armenians live outside of their homeland, is a premier trait of most Armenians abroad.
