the biblical name for ancient Syria

(Aramea, Aram-naharaim, Padan-Aram) The territory north and east of Palestine where Abraham's ancestors had settled and from where the wives of Isaac and Jacob came; roughly the region of modern northern Syria and northwestern Iraq.

Aram is the name of a region mentioned in the Bible located in central Syria, including where the city of Aleppo (aka Halab) now stands. The name is traditionally derived from Aram, a grandson of Noah in the Bible.

Aram is a fictional action movie placed in France in 1993 and 2001, wherein French-Armenian fighters supply arms to Nagorno-Karabakh and attempt to kill a visiting Turkish diplomat. It was released in 2002 in theatres in France, and made its debut in 2004 at the Armenian Film Festival in San Francisco.
