Who was responsible for the Armenian genocide and WHY did they do it?

Genocide is defined as "the deliberate and systematic extermination of a national, racial, political, or cultural group." The Ottoman Government was responsible for the Armenian Genocide. To be specific Envar, Jemal,and Talat-pasha were the main people who organized the genocide. The killings were an attempt to wipe out the Armenians and rid them from Turkey. The reason you hear many people complaining/talking about the Armenian Genocide,and not the Holocaust, is because the Turkish government has not accepted the Armenian Genocide. They say it was a civil war, not a genocide, and they teach that to the children in the schools.

Why did the world ignore the Armenian genocide?

not all of the world ignored the Armenian genocide, infact there are many countries who believe the Armenian genocide happened (which is great) only some of the major countries (like U.S.A) stilll don't believe that the genocide happened, because Turkey is one of the major countries of the world and America is friends with them, so i guess that's why they ignored the Armenian genocide, plus, people are saying " It happened already! Why do we have to care about something that happened in 1915?!" Well, I'll tell you why, this genocide led to many genocides that were influenced by the Ottoman Empire, Like the Jewish Genocide, and Darfur, And Rwanda. It's all about power, and Turkey is powerful.
