Just how Turkic are Turks?

[Gooding]

Original name is Oğuz (Oghuz) (Anatolian Turks, Türkmens Azerbaijanes Iraqi/Syrian Turkmens are Turks from Oğuz stock )

Fascinating! So, from the Oghuz came the people of all those countries! Like the Vikings of Northern Europe, it seems that the Turkic people certainly got around..

During the 19th century and early 20th century, the Ottoman Empire was composed of ethnically diverse populations such as Persians, Arabs, Albanians, Greeks, Bulgarians, Muslim Bulgarians (Pomaks), Armenians, Kurds, Zazas, Circassians, Assyrians, Jews, and Laz people.

Add a significant number of Balkan Slavs and Africans from Ottoman slave trade to it and you have how Turkic they are.

They are all directly descended from the original Turkic invaders, however only 5-10% can claim that their father's father's etc. line stems from the invaders. However becasue they were invaders, a disproportionately large amount of Y-Haplogroups should be Turkic, so given these results, most turks are likely slightly less than 5-10% Turkic.

pls , i wont repead my self , read the post above about the Y-hablogroups of Turkic world before mention an ignorant opinion ....

Vikings were just a bunch of looter pussy. Turkic people were the real warriors. They are overrated by the Holywood.

Another parallel that Vikings and Turks have in common is a unique Runic script

• J2=24% – J2 (M172)^[141] Typical of west Mediterranean populations
• R1b=14.7%^[141] Widespread in western Eurasia, with distinct 'west Asian' and 'west European' lineages. The predominant haplogroup among Armenians.
• G=10.9%^[141] – Typical of people from the Caucasus and to a lesser extent the Middle East, southern parts of Central Asia, and Europe.
• E3b-M35=10.7%^[141] (E3b1-M78 and E3b3-M123 accounting for all E representatives in the sample, besides a single E3b2-M81 chromosome). E-M78 occurs commonly, and is found in northern and eastern Africa, western Asia^[156] Haplogroup E-M123 is found in both Africa and Eurasia.
• J1=9%^[141] – Typical amongst people from the Arabian Peninsula and Dagestan (ranging from 3% from Turks around Konya to 12% in Kurds).
• R1a=6.9%^[141] – Common in various Central Asian, North Indian, and Eastern European populations.
• I=5.3%^[141] – Common in Scandinavia, Sardinia, the Balkans, eastern Europe and among Kurds.
• K=4.5%^[141] – Typical of Asian populations and Caucasian populations.
• L=4.2%^[141] – Typical of Indian Subcontinent and Khorasan populations. Found sporadically in the Middle East and the Caucasus.
• N=3.8%^[141] – Typical of Uralic, Siberian and Altaic populations.
• T=2.5%^[141] – Typical of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Northeast African and South Asian populations
• Q=1.9%^[141] – Typical of Northern Altaic populations.

If I read the data correctly, then only 5-10% or so of the population are directly descended from the original Turkic invaders. The haplogroups N, L and Q were what the original Turks carried and only a small percentage of Turks today carry it.

Haplogroup L is not Turkic and Turks who carry it have probably some Persian or Caucasian ancestors. Q+N= 5,7%

We are a lot more Turkic than Bulgarians are Bulgar or even Slavic, than Hungarians are Magyars, than Iranians are Aryans, than Levantines are Arabs, than Austrians are Germanic. The average Turk is 10% Mongoloid however Oghuz Turks who came here were already around 70% Caucasian if not more.
