Yeah I looked that list over and didn't find very much to be impressed by.
That guy was far from the first to propose a spherical earth and I don't see much to indicate his reasons for that belief were any more researched than previous.
Ethnomusicology, lol, the kind of thing you could only love if an Armenian did it.
I won't diss on anyone that makes new discoveries in mathematics, but that guy would certainly not make a top 100 mathematicians list. Probably not a top 1000 list if article length on Wikipedia is any good indicator.
Color TV is pretty cool.
Nice attempt, but face it, Armenia has a sub-standard history. Their greatest cultural strength is their incredible ego and tribal conviction. They do not nor have they ever valued intellectual pursuits. They are not even ambitious conquerors, simply content to live in their usual confines and flex in front of each other until some outsider enters.
EDIT: Overlooked the astrophysicist, I'll give you a cookie for that one. Notable that it took the Soviets to produce a man like that, however, Armenian culture is far too insular to do the job on its own. If you go back in history, there's nothing, so I see no reason to give a shit about your ancestors living and shitting in a particular piece of land under a particular name. You've got a similar attitude to neo-Nazis that suck the cocks of all things Nordic and pagan, conveniently ignoring their own primitive history. Don't take pride in things that don't deserve it. I don't take pride in my own hut-dwelling Celtic ancestors, they were largely a shit group of people until civilization hit them.
