Hello, dear friend. My name is Vachagan. You can meet me in both English, Dutch, and Armenian Wikipedias. Among my interests are culture and history of the Netherlands, Armenia and the region of Nagorno-Karabakh.

As the heavens are bright with stars and the earth with flowers, so are the works of the historian adorned by divers events. There are tales of the lands of the east which we have considered fitting to be incorporated in our composition which have found no place in the books of ancient historians.
