Ideal post WWI Asia Minor partition

[Bobby Martnen]

In recognition of the fact that Turks stole Asia Minor, it was never theirs to begin with, and they have a huge amount of land in Central Asia, here's my proposal



Blue = Greece

Purple = Armenia

Green = Assyria

Pink = Kurdistan

All Turks in those territories would be sent back to their real homeland - Central Asia, and the true inhabitants of Asia Minor would get their rightful land back.

Even before the genocides of those Christian populations, there weren't enough of them to justify your partition of Asia Minor. And Turks may be part Central Asian and Turkic, but they are even more descended from Turkified Asia Minor indigenous people.

Give them free land and encourage them to have big families.

Even though Turks have some Asia Minor admixture, their culture, religion, and language are totally alien to Asia Minor.

They have been living in Asia Minor for over 900 years, so they are in no way alien to it. Americans have only been in America for 400 years or so(except the Indians who were there much longer) and are not alien to America.

Because we built our own cities, we didn't just conquer someone else's cities and add a few minarets to their churches and then claim credit for it.

Well Turks are in large part descended from Anatolian natives, so they have a right to stay there. I only wish Constantinople and Eastern Thrace had been taken back by Christians, preferably Greece. Also there should have still been a Christian minority in Turkey, since there is a long history of Christianity there and churches in Asia Minor are even mentioned in the New Testament.

They have native Anatolian blood, but they have adopted a foreign religion, language, and culture, and are thus no longer true Anatolians.

I wish Greece at the very least had gotten Eastern Thrace, Constantinople, and Ionia/Smyrna.
