Depends on your history and if Armenia lets itself fall into that sphere. You should probably work that out with Evan.

Yeah, Armenia is generally too proud to consider itself in a sphere (even if it kinda is, like IRL Armenia and Russia) since there's generally a huge nationalist streak going on. They'll accept foreign aid and assistance but they'll always try to do their own thing.

However, functionally, at least in the old days, Armenia and Persia generally matched interests so there were no problems.
