Between 1828 and 1836, approximately 57,000 Christians (overwhelmingly Armenians) migrated into the Armenian oblast from Persia and Turkey. However, in 1832, four years after its official annexation by Russia, the Muslim population (primarily Tatars) represented 82,000, or fully half of the area's 164,500 residents. [1]
