Template:Infobox Russian governorate The Armenian oblast (Armenian: Հայաստանի ոբլաստ; Russian: Армянская область) was an oblast (province) of the Russian Empire from 1828 to 1840, roughly corresponding to most of present-day central Armenia, the Iğdır Province of Turkey, and Azerbaijan's Nakhichevan exclave. It was created by the Russians on the territory of the former Erivan and Nakhichevan khanates which were ceded by the Persian Empire in the Treaty of Turkmenchay after the Russo-Persian War (1826-1828). Ivan Paskevich, the Ukrainian-born military leader was made count of the oblast in the year of its creation.
Immediately prior to their annexation by the Russians, the population of the Yerevan and Nakhichevan khanates included about 25,500 Armenians. 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.
