Thanks for those facts. I didn't know Armenia was the first Christian state. Was it the Armenians who invented the device we call the Crusader's cross?

You pose an interesting question and I don't know about the "crusader's cross". The only thing I do know is that they had what is called the Armenian Greek cross which is in the shape of a "plus" -- + . The history of the many shapes and forms and symbolisms of various crosses is very prolific. I'd be very interested to discover the answer. Regards,
