'''Armenians in Ecuador''' refers to ethnic [[Armenians]] living in [[Ecuador]]. Armenians started to migrate to Ecuador in the late 80's and early 90's, during the last years of the [[Soviet Union]] and the beginning of the [[Nagorno-Karabakh war]]. Many of them had originally intended to enter neighboring countries such as [[Colombia]], [[Venezuela]], and [[Peru]]; many of those that were not able ended up in Eucador. The Armenian-Ecuadorian community's number has never been officially estimated, however, listing of residents through their family names in the area gives a hint of it to be from 50 to 100 people. In recent years, the number has gone down as many have decided to migrate either to other countries or go back to [[Armenia]].
