Colonia In Armenia
Colonia or Koloneia, also called Colonia in Armenia ( hy, Կոլոնիա) to distinguish it from other towns of the same name, was a town of ancient Lesser Armenia, inhabited during Hellenistic, Roman, and Byzantine times. It became important enough to be the seat of a bishop, a suffragan in the Late Roman Province of Armenia Prima, but faded like most in Asia Minor. No longer a residential bishopric, it remains, under the name Colonia in Armenia, a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church. Its site is located near Şebinkarahisar in Asiatic Turkey. Titular see In the late 19th century, the diocese was nominally restored as an Armenian Catholic titular bishopric of Colonia. As such it has incumbent of the lowest (episcopal) rank: * Santiago Costamagna, Salesians (S.D.B.) (1895.03.18 – 1921.12.09) * Edward Francis Hoban (1921.11.21 – 1928.02.21) (later Archbishop) In 1929 it was promoted to titular archbishopric, in 1933 renamed Colonia in Armenia, avoiding confusion with ...

Perspectives of various disciplines Social sciences In sociology and population geography, population refers to a group of human beings with some predefined criterion in common, such as location, race, ethnicity, nationality, or religion. Demography is a social science which entails the statistical study of populations. Ecology In ecology, a population is a group of organisms of the same species who inhabit the same particular geographical area and are capable of interbreeding.

Former Populated Places In Turkey
A former is an object, such as a template, gauge or cutting die, which is used to form something such as a boat's hull. Typically, a former gives shape to a structure that may have complex curvature. A former may become an integral part of the finished structure, as in an aircraft fuselage, or it may be removable, being using in the construction process and then discarded or re-used. Aircraft formers Formers are used in the construction of aircraft fuselage, of which a typical fuselage has a series from the nose to the empennage, typically perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. The primary purpose of formers is to establish the shape of the fuselage and reduce the column length of stringers to prevent instability. Formers are typically attached to longerons, which support the skin of the aircraft. The "former-and-longeron" technique (also called stations and stringers) was adopted from boat construction, and was typical of light aircraft built until the ad ...
