Armenian Provisional Government joins Russia (may 19, 1915 – jul 31, 1915)

Description:

The vali had clearly anticipated the 18 May arrival from the north of the Russian vanguard, with the volunteer battalion under Vartan’s command at its head. The next day, Major-General Nikolayev’s division arrived. To avoid a political vacuum, the Russian commander appointed Aram Manukian provisional governor of Van and authorized him to create a local administration. It functioned to the end of July
