Armenia is age 31 on the Idle Ages ladder, set in 95 BCE. You unlock it with coins the ages below it earned. From there it produces on its own cycle, with its own upgrade costs and its own four heroes.

Tigranes the Great raises every age you own at once. The other three raise this one. All four carry a piece of written history that unlocks as you level them.
Legendary
Tigranes the Great ruled Armenia from about 95 to 55 BCE and expanded it into a major power reaching into Syria. His new capital, Tigranocerta, reflected his imperial ambitions; coins show him wearing a distinctive Armenian tiara.
Raises output in every age you own, and most of all in their own. Every level doubles what they add.
Epic
Artavasdes II, son of Tigranes the Great, ruled Armenia between the rival powers of Rome and Parthia. Ancient writers also remembered him as an author of Greek tragedies, a scholar king whose diplomacy ended in captivity after Mark Antony invaded.
Raises the output and production speed of their own age. Every level doubles what they add.
Rare
Cleopatra of Pontus, daughter of Mithridates VI, became queen of Armenia through her marriage to Tigranes the Great. She welcomed Greek scholars to the royal court and belonged to a different dynasty from the famous Cleopatra of Egypt.
Raises the output of their own age. Every level doubles what they add.
Common Manager, level 5
Erato ruled Armenia alongside Tigranes IV around the turn of the Common Era and later returned to the throne. Her reign unfolded amid pressure from Rome and Parthia, as rival dynasties struggled to decide who would wear Armenia's crown.
Raises the production speed of their own age. Every level multiplies what they add by 1.6. Levelling Erato to 5 is what automates Armenia.
