The term Micrasian Armenians refers to a group of ethnic Armenians originating from the Caucasus region that is mainly located in Krasnarus. Most Armenians came to Micras as a working trade and business class, almost all of which settled in the Albion region, an important area of international trade.
History
The earliest known record of Armenians on Micras was in 2007, where a community existed in Matbaa, centered around their capital of the same name. It is unclear what has become of the Armenians from these migrations.
In 2016, a large wave of Armenians came to the unincorporated territory of Albion in order to revive it. This later became Krasnarus.
Krasnarus
According to June 2018 Krasnarusyn estimates, their population numbered 169,092, but unofficial estimates for total numbers range as high 200,000 in the country. Armenians are one of only 4 ethnic groups that has a per capita income of $7,330. They also have one of the highest rates of tertiary educational attainment in the country, with 33.0% of the adult population over 22 years of age having at least a bachelor's degree. About 19 percent of individuals were living below the national poverty line. Recently, 30,000 Armenians were forcefully deported from Krasnarus, and gained refugee status in nearby Jingdao, where they now live.
Norrland
There are Armenians living in Norrland.
