Could you answer my previous question about turkish asian culture? |
Travel Info http://vn.answers.yahoo.com/question/ind... Travel Tips Turkish people are not embarrased about being from Asia at all. On the contrary Turkish people are well aware and are proud of their roots, history, traditions and culture and you are right when you say Asian culture and Turkish culture have a lot of similarities. Others Hi Chinadoll, I should say that we r not trying to be European in that sense. We protect our traditions, history and leaders. This is what has survided us for long long years. Turkey has a position of great importance on earth as a bridge between Europe and Asia and we r proud of this. What you have said is true. Westerners come to visit our countries (Asia) spending a lot of money. And they r aware that we wont leave our identity.. No, Turks know they are Asian......They are embarrassed by other things they did......Take a look: http://www.geocities.com/capitolhill/con... http://imia.cc.duth.gr/turkey/index.e.ht... http://www.geocities.com/athens/cyprus/7... http://members.fortunecity.com/fstav1/ph... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/armenian_ge... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/turkish_inv... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/great_fire_... http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2007... http://www.ctlibrary.com/ct/2000/marchwe... Awesome ha?? Well, well look what you can learn for 65 million people in 5 minutes.... The Chinese who ruined the Eastern Turkish Kingdom brought the people from the family of the khan to the capital and gave them some duties in order to keep them under control. They thought to annihilate the Turks and convert them to Chinese in order to get rid of the Turks completely. Thus, they settled a big part of the Turks along the Great Wall of China. But this suppression helped Turks to increase their resistance. They embraced with determination their language, habits and traditions, and they got ready for revenge. During their enslavement, which lasted 50 years they rebelled when ever they found a chance. why I gave you that little info? we are holding on to our culture, always have always will.............. if you like to find out more about it please contact me... to the person above you are bunch of liars i answered you. what happened my typing then. haha. anyway we are not middle eastern . we are far from middle eastern islamic cultures. we are central asian and i feel really close to asian cultures. turks come from central asia not middle east. turks used to be more open minded before we convert arabs religion. we had a word in our old language meaning bisexual. like both man and woman.cant remember the word now.my point is doesnt matter we have arabs religion we are still old turks from central asia |
