TURKS HAVE PLAYED CRUCİAL ROLES İN HİSTORY, THROUGHOUT THE THOUSANDS OF YEARS OF THEİR HİSTORY.TURKS HAVE FOUNDED MORE THAN A HUNDRED SMAL AND LARGE STATES ON THE CONTİNENTS O ASİA, EUROPE AND AFRİCA.

İT İS WİDELY BELİEVED THAT THE TERM “TURKS” REFERS TO A PLİTİCAL ENTİTY RATHER THAN TO AN ETHNİC İDENTİTY.

THERE İS NO ANY DEFİNİTE ETHNİCAL İDENTİTY İN TURKS.

BECAUSE THEY HAVE MARRİED  PEOPLE OF ASİAN, MONGOL, SPANİSH, FRENCH, RUSSİAN, AMERİCAN, AUSTRALİAN, ARAP, ROMANİAN, JEW, SERBİAN, İTALİAN, CHİNESE, ETC.

WİTHİN TODAYS WORLDS, THERE ARE SİX İNDEPENDENT TURKİSH STATES FROM THE MODERN TURKİSH REPUBLİC, THESE İNCLUDE AZERBAİJAN, KAZAKHSTAN, KYRGYZSTAN, TÜRKMENİSTAN, UZBEKİSTAN AND THE TURKİSH REPUBLİC OF NORTHERN CYPRUS –WHİCH İS ONLY RECOGNİZED BY THE REPUBLİC OF TÜRKİYE-.

AND THERE ARE SEVERAL TURKİSH AUTONOMOUS REPUBLİCS, THESE  İNCLUDE BASHKİR, CHUVASH, TATAR, KABARDİNO-BALKARİA, KARA-KALPAK, NAKHİCHEVAN AND XİNGJİAN.

THERE ARE SEVERAL TURKİSH AUTONOMOUS REGİONS, THESE İNCLUDE THE ALTAİ REPUBLİC, KARACHAY-CHERKESSİA, KHAHASS, GAGAUZ AND NOGORNO-KARABAKH İN AJERBAİJAN WHİCH CAME UNDER ARMENİAN OCCUPATİON İN 1991.

SOME OTHER TURKİSH PEOPLE ARE İN THE CRİMEAN TATARS, THE KARAİM AND THE KRYMCHAKS İN THE  CRİMEAN PENİNSULA, THE MESHETİAN TURKS, THE NOGAİ AND THE KUMKY İN DAGESTAN AUTONOMOUS REPUBLİC.

İN ADDİTİON, THERE ARE SEVERAL TURKİSH-İNHABİTED REGİONS İN İRAN, IRAQ, GEORGİA, BULGARİA, GREECE, MACEDONİA, TAJİKİSTAN, AFGHANİSTAN AND WESTERN MONGOLİA.

SOME TURKİSH TRİBES MİGRATED TO EASTERN AND WESTERN EUROPE, BALKANS, AFRİCA, AMERİCA, ASİA  AND AUSTRALİA. 

one thing to consider is that these were Turkic states not Turkish.

nice list btw.

 Oh I agree it is a BEAUTIFUL list - I would have liked to have seen more randomly coloured text though

Admins and moderators have the right to delete posts if these posts contain abusive, vulgar, insulting language are particularly offensive or if posts contain personal attacks (or negative statements about another person´s character if it results in a conflict between members) according to Turkish Class Rules.

I would have liked to have seen more randomly coloured their posts though.

 Perhaps you would like to explain what was vulgar about my post?  You have clearly taken great exception to my post, judging by your PM to me.  I suggest that you adopt a slightly less arrogant and condescending manner and lighten up a bit - then perhaps your posts, clearly designed to educate us or impress us with your pseudo intellectualism, may be better received.

In the meantime, if you wish to write to mods and have my post(s) deleted, please feel free.  However, I would point out that my post was merely a joke about your POSTS, not you personally, whereas you have called me "vulgar" which indeed is a personal attack.  Therefore, please enjoy my comments about your arrogance and pseudo intellectualism

I remember TheAenigma…

TheAenigma = Our very young and intelligent sister from UK.

I apologize to TheAenigma.

"A cup of coffee commits one to forty years of friendship."  (A Turkish proverb)

 Ahh Yilgun - you know how to treat a lady! 

Every time you call me "very young" you  know I am putty in your hands!  

I apologise too for my comments - just PLEASE keep calling me VERY YOUNG AND INTELLIGENT!

For TheAenigma:

Thank you very much for your friendship.

Thank you Lemon, for your interest.

But it is a banned youtube, I cannot read it, I think it is about "Mongols"?

According to the historic documents, Mongols were not Turkish People, but they were  relatives in the Asia, Mongolia and Manchuria, 209 B.C. -  1125 A.D.
