Interesting way of clinking glasses in many countries around the world

When traveling to the countries below, you should pay attention to the toasting customs of the natives.

Armenia

Each table has a tamada (person who calls for toasts), responsible for saying congratulations as well as attracting attention to make everyone happy. If you drink beer, fill someone else's cup with your own bottle. The last person to drink this time will pay for everyone's next drink.
