Араратская долина делит землю армян на две части - восточную и западную. Она же является центром армянской культуры и государственности. Процесс формирования армянской народности в основном завершился в VII-VI вв. до н.э., когда на территории Армянского нагорья возникло первое армянское рабовладельческое государство (Государство Ервандуни), объединившее местные кавказкоязычные и пришлые индоевропейские племена.
Иран вынужден был заключить с Византией договор о дружбе и уступить ей часть Картли до Тбилиси и часть Восточной Армении до озера Ван. На освобождённой от персов части Картли утвердился местный князь. В Албании в конце VI в. возродилась местная государственность во главе с наследственным князем. В оставшихся под властью Ирана частях Картли и Армении иранское правительство также должно было пойти на значительные уступки местной знати. Но положение крестьянства оставалось по-прежнему тяжёлым.
