idk man.What I know is that our muslim neighbours did assimilated a lot of turks.

Almost none. The Turkish governors took Greek (and Serb and Egyptian etc) wives by the bunch and they sent the kids to the capital city of the Empire where they'd become 'Turkified', aka Ottoman Muslims. The Greeks who had mixed with Turks are only accounted for in the late 19th century and the early 20th century in Asia Minor. And we don't know how many of them came back as Greek in the population exchange.

Your upteenth anti-Greek troll attempt is yet another failed one.

They do. Just as Turks also do. This fact will never change no matter how long fanatics from both sides keep denying. Two peoples look very similar in terms of many things. That's why we always argue like two sisters.

Yes actually all modern Greeks are turkish, and all of their cultural innovations and discoveries can now be appropriated to turks

I'm so sick of these threads

That has no scientific value, just cheap generalization. Many people can't even distinguish between Turks and Greeks. Talking out of my own experiences.
