| Deposition | 1924: Vardanan Revolution |
The House of Hazaraspid, more formally the House of Hazarasp, was the final ruling dynasty of the Kingdom of Vardana from 1832 until their overthrow in 1924 during the Vardanan Revolution. From the 14th century until the 19th century, dynasts primarily served as governors of Bayazet and overlords of Hzadran and Kajnadzor.
The Hazaraspid dynasty arrived in what in Vardana in the 12th century, believed to originate from Chuya province, near the Chu River Valley in Uluujol. Merxas I Hazarasp was the first member of the dynasty to reign over the original Kingdom of Bayazet in the 12th century, and briefly rulings as Kings of Vardana. The dynasty was deposed after being integrated into the Kingdom of Vardana in the 15th century, though they remained lords of Kajnadzor and retained many of their original lands. Following the Xanthi overthrow, the dynasty re-established itseslf as Monarchs of Bayazet, and claimed the titles of the then dormant Kingdom of Varadana. The dynasty was overthrown in the 1924 revolution, where most dynasts were killed.
The head of the House of Hazarasp is Aram, Despot of Bayazet. The head of the house continues to claim all titles and dignities of the King of Vardana, though this claim is disputed by multiple claimants.
