The Armenians got attacked, and systematically killed, dispersed throughout the country, put to live in places where the life is extremely hard, separated from the their families, and even taking the babies away and separate them from their mothers. The end result has been a decimated Armenian population, with an estimated 1.5 million people ending up dead.
