Crimean Tatars and North Caucasians in Turkey are also largely diluted/Turkified among younger generations (under 30), aren't they?Quote:

Not fully. There are many people under 30 who know they're Crimean Tatars or Caucasians, even 90% of them are pure Tatars/Caucasians. But unfortunately they don't know their language very well. Our goverment must do something about this.Quote:

The diversity and languages musn't die. Also one nation theory may be suitable for Euro & East Asian countries(because they're 99% of same ethnicity) but it is not suitable for Turkey and other Asian countries, especially for West, Central, South & Southeast Asia countries like Iran, Afghanistan, India, Malaysia, Uzbekistan etc. Because they're too diverseQuote:

North Caucasians, yes. The younger generation knows who they are, yet identify as Turk just like the others. I wouldn't say assimilation to the situation of Tatars. Their language shift dates to the Crimean Khanate and they accepted as regular Turks in Turkey since the beginning. But they still have a Tatar identification in the community if that's what you are asking.Quote:

What I can say is they all still have an ethnic identification despite they don't use it in the community. In my experience, only Anatolian and Balkan Turks claim they are nothing but Turks.
I have a somewhat different opinion but let's not start a debate right here. I can only tell you that more diversity means less cohesion and anyway most people will use whatever language that is the most useful where they live. Practicality is more important for them than anything else.Quote:
