A small party of Armenians were, through the tyranny and per- secution of the Greek Emperors, compelled to forego their national creed and rites, and to join the Greek Church. This small community were known as Greco-Armenians, of whom a small number still exist to this day, and are found in the villages around Aken and Nicomedia, but ere long they will be absorbed by the Greek nation. During the period of the Rubenian Dynasty the Roman Catholics, having found their way to Cilicia, tried to int...roduce their creed and rites among the Armenians. Some of these joined them, changed their creed and rites and all national customs, and became completely Romanized. They were called Uniats, i. E. , those united with the Church of the Pope. With the end, however, of the Rubenian Dynasty, the Uniat Community gradually decreased and became extinct, and hardly any traces of them were left in Armenia. Again during the last (18th) century, the Roman Catholics, after every possible attempt to entice away Armenians from their Church, finding the task of doing so a fruitless one, contrived to send a number of young Armenians to Rome, and gave them a Roman Catholic training.
