Kars (Armenian: Կարս or Ղարս;[2] Azerbaijani: Qars; Kurdish: Qers[3]) is a city in northeast Turkey. It is the seat of Kars Province and Kars District.[4] As of 2022, its population was 91,450.[1] Kars, in classical historiography (Strabo), was in the ancient region known as Chorzene (Greek: Χορζηνή), part of the province of Ayrarat in the Kingdom of Armenia,[5] and later the capital of the Bagratid Kingdom of Armenia from 929 to 961. Currently, the mayor of Kars is Türker Öksüz.[6] The city had an Armenian ethnic majority until it was re-captured by Turkish nationalist forces in late 1920.
