Orang Armenia Amerika

Armenia Amerika (bahasa Armenia: ամերիկահայեր, amerikahayer) adalah warga atau penduduk Amerika Serikat yang memiliki keturunan Armenia murni atau belasteran. Mereka membentuk komunitas diaspora Armenia terbesar kedua setelah Armenia Rusia.^[1] Arus besar pertama imigrasi Armenia ke Amerika Serikat terjadi pada akhir abad ke-19 dan awal abad ke-20. Ribuan orang Armenia bermukim di Amerika Serikat setelah pembantaian Hamidia pada pertengahan 1890an, pembantaian Adana tahun 1909, dan genosida Armenia tahun 1915–1918 di Kekaisaran Utsmaniyah. Sejak 1950an, banyak orang Armenia dari Timur Tengah (khususnya dari Lebanon, Suriah, Iran, Irak, Mesir dan Turki) bermigrasi ke Amerika akibat ketidakstabilan politik di wilayah tersebut.
