Turks are not West Asian!

[Kross]

When you say that they're West Asian, you basically legitimize their presence in Anatolia which is Greek lands since 4000 years ago.

People here need to stop classifying Turks as Pontid, Armenoid, or whatever Caucasoid phenotype! Turks are not even Caucasoid, they're mixed race!

All Turks are Turanids, there are no other phenotypes there.

They speak a Turkic language, identify as such, and look as such.

Turks are just Central Asians.

Turkish people are actually mostly levantine arabs and local anatolians who where cucked so hard by the Turks that they speak a Turkic language.

[Armenian Bishop]

Most of the Eastern half of Turkey is historically Armenian, as well as Pontic Greek. In the 1st Century BC, the Armenian and Pontic-Greek Empires were actually allies. I should add that Mustafa Kemal Ataturk had much to do with the People of modern day Turkey being indoctrinated to view themselves as Turks (or Turkic).

Turks are neither full Central Asian nor assimilated natives. If you look up the studies of "Turkish DNA Project", you will brightly see Turks are mixture of 60%-70% native + 30%-40% Central Asian Turkic admixtures.

Btw unlike the popular belief, Greek groups are too heterogenous to be related. Turks are 2x more homogenous than pan-Greeks(is there even something like this?). So do not ever think you & your Greek bros are descendants of ancient Greek philosophers :rolleyes:

This averages obviously are influenced by Non-Uzbeks, even Tadjikistan Uzbeks which i saw often have more than 30% east eurasian.

Tigran the Great's Armenian Empire and the Pontic-Greek Empire of Mithridates VI did form an alliance in the 1st Century BC. it's in historical accounts that date back to the Roman Empire. As for being Armenoid, just look at my avatar photograph (it's me). I recall that (in 2013 and 2014) it was Apricity Turks and Turkic members who were trying to tell this Forum that history started with ancestral Turkic People (even in Europe). The fact is that the Armenian presence, in the area, dates back thousands of years prior to when Seljuk Turks entered the area in the mid-eleventh century (it's no secret).

While Armenians didn't build Egyptian or Inca Pyramids, and there're certainly other things they didn't do, there're a heck of a lot of things that Armenians did do first, with artifacts that precede everyone else: [1] The first and oldest leather shoe, discovered in Armenia (4,500 BC). [2] The oldest winery, discovered in Armenia (5,100 BC). [3] Armenia's Capital (Yerevan) is one of the oldest inhabited cities in the world (established in 2,802 BC). [4] Armenia was the first country to adopt Christianity (301 AD). [5] Noah's Ark landed in the Western Armenian Highlands, in the Mountains of Ararat. [6] Urartu is an Assyrian pronunciation of Ararat -- Urartians were Proto-Armenian People.

I guess that's enough for now. So, a lot of history did start with Armenians or Proto-Armenian People.

To say that the Turks are not West Asians in 2021 is like saying that the Greeks are not Southeast Europeans.
Basically, Greek comes from the Proto-Indo-European language, so practically from there come the real Greeks.

Turks are neither European nor West Asian. They're just Central Asian invaders of Greek lands. They're just what they are which is Turkic.

Anatolia is Greek.
