Answer:
The ottoman government deported the Armenians because they thought that Armenians were trying and were involved in building their own state during the Ottoman Empire.
Step-by-step explanation:
- The Ottoman Empire was becoming less powerful due to the diverse religion and ethnic groups so they wanted to create a territory with single ethnicity and religion.
- But Armenians were not agreeing these steps from ottoman which resulted in the suspicion that they would create their own state. So, the genocide over Armenians outraged.
