pretty understandable why the ask is on anon lmao pls educate yourselves
girl..why are you making it seem like turkey hasn't done anything at all? although theyve been colonized, they were once colonizers themselves.
ottoman empire for example? or are you going to say that its "not real" too lol
1. We are not the Ottoman Empire. We are the Republic of Turkey. Ottomans were our ancestors, yes, yet we are not the same. Atatürk founded this country for a reason. We are not the same. We have our mistakes but we try our best to not become like our ancestors. At least that's what I do (Read this to learn our founder's instructions for the future Turkish youth).
2. Turkey did not colonize anywhere. The Ottoman Empire conquered a lot of places, they did not colonize like Europe did to America and Africa, if they did a lot of people in Eastern Europe would talk Turkish. We have common words, yes, it was the cultural exchange and other bad things that the Ottoman Empire did (such as Devşirme Sistemi, read this please, I genuinely think it's disgusting) But their doings were different, I can't support nor defend what the Ottoman Empire did back in the days.
3. If you're including the Ottoman Empire, we have to include many other countries, empires and civilizations who did bad things. I don't think it's a good idea to include those. If so then we should talk about Nazi Germany for example.
reading people’s dumb asks really angers me like literally j was watching batman now my whole mood is ruined😐people shouldn’t talk before doing a well research with the right. if we’re going to talk about turkey on the basis of the ottoman empire lets talk about germany on the basis of nazis or how britain colonized literally everywhere lmao so many more examples can be given. yall are so quick on jumping to conclusions don’t embarrass yourselves.
EXACTLY!
The fact that people speak as if ancient civilizations don't exist and we don't live in a modern world. "Oh Ottoman Empire did this, that yada yada" BITCH France colonized half of the fucking Africa, Spain colonized Latin America, Britain is the same. And don't get me stated on the European colonizing and fucking killing Native Americans, the stupid Colombus going to America and saying "Oh, this is India". I'm not saying "your ancestors are worse than ours" but like don't fucking bring mine when yours are fucking angels.
