As long as we get to keep our precious military base... Btw my grandfather was a soldier who was in the 78 operation. So he saw no action but my mothers family was placed in a Greek house. My mother tells me how Greeks escaped appearently in such a hurry that all of their belongings were still...

Cant they see how cringe it is to put mehter behind every video? Like wtf is the relevance? It really kills the enthusiasm when they plant their neo-ottomanist agendas to these kind of things. One gets suspicious whether this is a sincere project or a political show. P.S: Actually it is not...

Erdogan is the biggest saviour of PKK. PKK was finished in early 2000s he revived them with his western friends, gulenists and liberals. Erdogan gave constitutional legitimacy to HDP, a party that openly supports terrorism, by initiating the solution process. If Turkey cannot close down HDP...

@Lool How anyone can respect Erdo is beyond me tbh. He literally made Turkey the only country that lost in the Syrian Civil War despite Syria itself. We had like plenty of roads to take in the last 10 years and he made Turkey miss all of them constantly. Erdogan is the founder of the PKK state...

Thats the punchline of the joke, I am afraid. Oh they will tell you about scientists who died 1000 years ago. The biggest brainfuck I have ever experienced was that in a youtube video, when a historian said European enlightenment didnt happen because of Christianity but despite Christianity...

Cant tell if trolling or not. 1- I am not an "anti-Ottoman Turk". How can one be anti of sth that doesnt exist anymore. Ottoman Empire is our history with its goods and bads. Just like all the places that werent Europe they remained backwards in urbanisation, economy and mentality. They did a...

Emrah Safa Gurkan talked about the madrasas of the Ottoman Empire. He says Ottoman society was a non-book reading society. Thats why printing press didnt come actually. Because there was no demand because people had no habit of reading books. The amount of books madrasah students read were so...

No empire up until the rise of colonial empires changed the identities of its citizens. People dont get how weak authorities states had over their people before the modern states. State in Ottoman Empire was the annoying tax officer/sipahi that visited your village twice a year. There was no...

I dont have any beef with Ottoman Empire. It is the stupidest thing to look at history with an emotional view. Ottoman Empire just like every other place other than Europe be it China, India, Central Asia, Japan were a traditional authoritarian society. This scientific, curious, renaissance...

@Nein2.0(Nomad) I asked from Ottomans you talk about Artuqids. You have this one Takiyüddin you constantly bring up. We are talking about a 622 year old empire. You acknowledge Ottomans didnt invent anything(rather contributed?) but you dont refrain from calling me biased. Literally every...

Tell me one scientific invention from Ottomans.

That would result in with the Turkification of Greece (83 million vs 10 million) and we would name the country Turkey in the next referandum.

Greece doesnt need to be strong at land forces. In a potential problem with Turkey they did a very good job at obstructing the only passage with a US base at Dedeagac. Now they only need to compete at air and sea. It is a handicap for Turkey because land forces was the greatest advantage Turkey...

How do we even know anything will come out of these? We are speaking too early. We will see how it goes.

Oghuz Turks converted to islam when islamic civilization had already fallen behind. Islamic golden age ended pretty much with the Abbasid Caliphate. Central Asia was the last frontier. Seljuk conquest of the region corresponds to Ibn-i Sina's life time. Islam was actually pretty new in Central...

I will either vote for Muharrem Ince or Umit Ozdag. My heart desires Umit Ozdag but I think Muharrem has a higher chance as he started earlier. For all the other parties though, they can have a piece of me!

We will see how this goes I guess. Has there been a development that required one of the sides to compensate? Whose hand is stronger compared to previous meeting? I know this is about UAE and Turkey reconciliation and that happened because of Bidens exclusionary policies towards UAE such as...

Isnt this man black or am I missing sth? How is he "Irish"?

I think they rather depopulated East Iranian urban centers. Those Turkic Empires like Khwarezmians ruled over largely Iranian and Arabic populations.

And YPG sold that as an epic victory against ISIS to all Europe-tards LMAO!
