I have heard from people and read on the internet that Armenia is considered to be the first country to adopt Christianity as state religion (the exact date is widely disputed, though 301 AD is the traditional date).
How well-established is this whole claim among modern historians?
I am interested in the core claim, the exact date of conversion does not matter to me, though it would be nice if the answer included information about the date too.
I can't find any definitive answer on the current state of this claim among modern historians, which is why I'm asking this question here on History SE.
