Although a few Armenians lived in Abkhazia in the Middle Ages , significant Armenian immigration to Abkhazia began in the late 19th century when much of Abkhazia became depopulated due to the exodus of many Abkhaz of Muslim descent to the Ottoman Empire after the Russian crackdown on the rebellion in Abkhazia ; at the same time anti-Armenian pogroms started in Turkey and the attitude of the Porte towards its Armenian subjects became increasingly more brutal . More Armenians came to Abkhazia in 1910s fleeing the Armenian Genocide
