    Ibn Khalduns works even mentioned this. When you are a powerful civilisation or empire you have people admiring even copying your ways. Interesting with the whole Turquie movement. When Europeans copied the Ottomans from fashion to even military. The winged hussars even came from Turkic...

    I know this belongs in Turkish geopolitics or foreign policy. But I heard rumours that Kenan Evren met or kept contact with Gulbuddin Hekmatyar. Dont know how true it is.

    Why was/is the British army so capable?

    People forget that Poland also chipped away territory from its neighbours also how they participated in the partition of the Czechs. No doubt Poland suffered under the Nazis and the Soviets but I hate the victimhood mentality when they also caused the Nazis to be emboldened when Poland was...

    Didnt chamberlain have a policy of appeasement? Policy of him appeasing largely destroyed his image eventhough he wanted to avoid war and maintain the balance of power.

    Churchill was half American right?? I think his mother was American? Oh wow his mother was American. I never knew this. This could explain why he was so close to the USA. Usa also have a naval ship named after winston churchill. Winston Churchill also had numerous failures. His failure in...

    Rise of nationalism was even before the Young Turks tookover. Young Turks wanted to revive the Empire but they failed like all previous ones including Abdulhamid II. The empire was rotting and dying. There was no chance in saving it. Also joining ww1 was inevitable it was hard for the...

    Sinan does not even realise that the country of Zambia had a space program. Yeah it was a poor mans space program that achieved jack shit but even shows that poor countries can dream of achieving something. Turkey in its caliber should be in space no doubt.

    Space tech even makes its way into road cars. Space tech also leads to the development of new materials. For many it could be a waste but for the others its a opportunity. Space tech also helps the military defence industry. Usa, france and russia have already set up a a space force. Space...

    Royal Navy also played a role in the Germans and the Ottomans getting defeated in ww1 due to their blockades. People dont realise how important logistics and supply lines are. Once those are cut the war effort turns against you. Napoleon lost in Egypt because the Royal Navy blockaded him and...

    The Navy is their most potent weapon. Thats why the Nazis and Napoleon lost because they had no answer to the Royal Navy.

    It seems the Arabs did not conquer the Turks but they conquered and massacred the Eastern Iranians who lived in parts of central Asia. The Turks were more further up. It confirms there were battles also skirmishes but no outright conquest. Arabs referred to the Central asian steppe as a...
