The Turks migrated from Central Asia to Anatolia, and later the Balkans. Armenians are native to Anatolia and were pushed into the Caucasus by the Turks. The Turks formed the Ottoman Empire, which took control of the Byzantine Empire and expanded into new land, which lasted for over 600 years, up until the end of WWI.
