Greater Armenia as advocated by the Armenian Revolutionary Federation under the title of United Armenia.

Greater Armenia or United Armenia (the term used by the Armenian Revolutionary Federation) is an Armenian irredentist political goal aimed at uniting all territories perceived as "historically or ethnically Armenian" to the Republic of Armenia.

Most political groups (including the ARF) take the concept to encompass the area of Wilsonian Armenia (present-day eastern Turkey as proposed at the Treaty of Sèvres), Nagorno-Karabakh (a self-proclaimed, predominately Armenian republic within the internationally recognized borders of Azerbaijan), Javakhk (a predominately Armenian region in present-day Georgia), and Nakhichevan (an autonomous exclave of Azerbaijan that once was home to a significant Armenian community).
