Kurdish issue is far from Tatar's. You know their ultimate goal is to uniting the 4 parts and declare a sovereign state.
Gaining autonomy is the first step even written in the Ocalan's books.
In Turkey, Kurds are free in their culture.
In Russia, official language is Russian.
Ottoman Empire is founded by Kayı Tribe from the Oghuz Turks. Empire ruled by Turks and all other ethnics ruled by Turks.
Yes, i agree.
For me it matters. Seljuqs influenced by Persian, not Persianized. They were still Turks and They found Ottomans, later Turkey.
You are comparing a country(Turkey) with a nation(Kurds).
And I'm saying we are here from 1071 not 1923.
Look at the border between Iraq and Syria.
Like in Russia official language is Russian. There will be lots of problems. And some sources there is less than %10 Kurds in Turkey..
Then don't give them a autonomy but at least you can give them the basic rights they claim to complain about.
Languages of Russia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
27 languages are recognized as official languages in various regions of Russia.
Yes, the figureheads were Turkic people originally from Turkmenistan (nomads there) but they nearly all married non-Turks or at least a hell lot of them. The point is that the Ottoman Empire was a multiethnic and Islamic empire. It was not a nationalistic Turkish empire.
If that was the case the empire would not have allowed Arab rulers to rule their own areas of what was back then areas that pledged alliance to the Ottoman Sultan.
That might be the case. My point was just that the country Turkey did not exist back then. All I was saying.
As a people but not as a country.
I gave you an example of Kurdish people ruling empires ruled by Kurds (descendants of Saladin)
From what I am aware of there were fights there.
Which problems exactly? Turkey is already a country that is far from being pure "Turkic". Many Turks (nationality) have ancestries from the Arab world, Balkans, Caucasus, are Kurds etc.).
Which sources say that the Kurds "only" make up 10% of the population?
Do you seriously believe even what you are saying? KSA was never conquered or colonized
after this i have no reason to say anything, cause your delusion is beyond imagination. I didnt even want to answer you cause your wasting my time but i couldnt hold it because you wrote such stupid stuff i needed to correct it.
Of course not. Who ever conquered or controlled Najd for instance. Nobody ever did. On the other hand what is now Turkey was controlled by us Arabs for centuries (large parts of it) and before that by Greeks, Romans, Persians etc.
Once again when was KSA a British colony? KSA has never been a colony since its founding. Just like Turkey.
It is not my problem that you do not know history. All territories of what is now KSA were ALWAYS ruled by LOCAL rulers. Some of them pleaded alliance to the Arab Caliphs during the Rashidun, Umayyad, Abbasid and Fatimid Caliphates/Empires but some did not.
When the Ottoman Sultan (can't remember his name) came to Makkah and Madinah to establish his Islamic authority some locals rulers pledged alliance to him while others did not.
Long before the Turks even entered the Middle East and long before the Ottomans and even some time after the Sharif of Makkah and his family ruled Hijaz. He was the local authority. He was the most revered person in the Ottoman Empire after the Sultan himself and the Sultan always held the Sharif of Makkah in high regard. He never removed him or the other local rulers. Some of those Sharifs of Makkah were even born at his palaces in Istanbul. Instead he only wanted them to recognize him as the Caliph and to pledge alliance to him in return for protection.
