Armenia was the first country to officially christianise, it happened in the IV century and could be still traced through the ancient architecture preserved until our days. Practically every smallest Armenian village or town has its own church that could often be dated the IV-VIII centuries.
By the way, it’s hard to confuse an Armenian church with any other’s, even with a Georgian one not to mention Russian or Byzantine churches. Its most distinctive feature is a cone-shaped dome.
