Nation: Soviet Republic of Armenia
Name: Dikran(Ti-Gran) Nahapet(Naha-Pet)
Birthday: April 24
Appearance: With his seemingly seventeen year old appearance, he has thick, black hair, and a pair of brown eyes. Dikran always wears a jacket of some sort, or a red tie. He maintains a Caucasian toned skin. When standing in proper, and straight he stands to a fine 5'9, though finds difficulty to stand straight due to old war wounds. He is always with his pet eagle, well to be extremely specific, his Imperial Eastern Eagle which is named Haya.
Personality: As a general person, Dikran is very kind, yet sometimes short tempered. He has been found as a cheery, silly, and bright individual, unless specific things are brought up. Unless he already knows you, he is very shy, and distant, just as his father taught him to be, before he was slain by the Ottoman Empire. Though he doesn't have access to very advanced technology, he is still very intelligent, and can hold his own is a conversation or war.
Hobbies and Interests: You could say he was made for the arts. He loves to sing, write poetry, and play a special wooden flute his father made for him, named which is named Duduk. He loves to travel the mountains and ruins his father once ruled over.
Brief History: His homeland of Armenia, did not start with his father, not even his grandfather, it started with his great-grandfather, Gomer (No given Last Name). Though, not a leader, he was still born in Armenia. It was because of this man, the father of Dikran and soul founder of Armenia, Hayk was born and found the drive to found the Grand Country. Upon the birth of Hayk, a great tyrant named King Bel ruled the lands, the upcoming events would lead to Hayk forming an army, nation, and people in order to slay him. Leading on to the Armenian Empire's birth, alongside the Roman Empire, and many others. Armenia leads to be the oldest Country alongside Greece at 5514 years old to this day.
Some 5000 years later, Dikran was born in a time of war. The Ottoman empire, which ruled over Turkey and many surrounding lands near Armenia. Armenia blatantly refused to surrender to the Ottomans alongside Greece, only to be met with a great loss, causing the Armenian Genocide to take place, killing Hayk, and gravely wounding Dikran. To this day, Dikran has problems walking, and a long scar down his back. Throughout all this history, Dikran and his people remain proud, and Independent people, not without some aide from Cousin Russia of course though. Dikran spent most of his life recovering from his wounds caused by Turkey, both mentally and emotionally, with the help of Iran and America. Ever since the loss of his father, Dikran has had trouble making friends.
Religion: Armenian Paganism
Relationships:
Russia: The two have always been close, mostly due to them both being cousins, during Armenia and Dikran's recoveries from the Armenian Genocide, Russia took control, and ruled justly over the land.
Greece: Having faced the same injustices of the Ottoman Empire, Heracles has always been like an older brother to Dikran, whether Heracles felt the same or not. They always look out for each other, no matter what the cost.
America: Having given aid to Armenia during the Armenian Genocide, Armenia always thought of America as an ally, though due to recent events, they are not as close as they once were.
Iran: Iran lent Armenia both refuge and military aide during The Genocide, and did their best to save Dikran and his father during the time. Although they failed to save his father, Dikran always looked up to Iran as a great friend and ally.
Ottoman Empire: Nemesis
Turkey: Ugh. Turkey is the worst possible enemy Dikran could have. Turkey caused the death of his father, the near death of himself, and the wounding of his dear friend Heracles. There is no talking with Turkey when it comes to Armenia, the people of Armenia may be stubborn, but have their own reasons.
