خلفية ثقافية
Armenians value 'հանդարտություն' (tranquility) in leaders. A leader who 'loses their head' is often criticized in Armenian history books. In the chaotic traffic of Yerevan, 'գլուխը կորցնել' is a common excuse given to traffic police. In Western Armenian (spoken in the Diaspora), the phrase is also used, though sometimes 'միտքը կորցնել' (to lose the mind) is heard as a variation.
