Does it upset you to argue about it with foreigners? After all this is a site about Turkey, so most subjects are going to be about Turkey

I am not denying our history, so therefore your point is irrelevent
You stated that Turkey had not oppressed or colonised, and I proved you wrong
I made no such statement about Britain
Ottomans didn´t colonise. They expanded their territory and then lost during their decline. They only taxed their Christian subject. Other than that they set them free. No opression. They are innocent when compared to what you did.

I do not state that the Ottomans were oppressive... again you are reading more into my comment than exists. I merely said that you colonised. The definition of colonised is "take up residence and become established" which I believe you did during the Ottoman Empire. I am not criticising the Ottomans, just stating fact

You are splitting hairs now Your dictionary is different to mine? So? Sorry but I won´t waste time arguing about your trivia. I have heard Turks describe "The Ottoman Empire" ... see what your dictionary defines as "empire".
I think you are just upset to be proved wrong and will argue all day now.... unfortunately I don´t have time canim

There were wonderful, I agree. So liberal...during the Ottoman era, Armenians, Jews, Greeks all lived in peace and people had the right to speak their own language.
You must be sad that modern Turkey is so different canim. Oppression and people made slaves to Kemalism... no wonder you look to Ottomans and sigh "if only"....

No I am happy living in TC. I am only dreaming maybe I would be living in Balkans now where my Grandfathers used to live if we hadn´t been pushed out of there.

Yeah we were an Empire but not like yours. Your banks are full of money you brought from your colonies and you feed yourselves on them.
What´s left to us from our empire only the debts we had to pay.
