    It's just for fun. I did the same thing for the Austro-Hungarian, German, and Russian Empires, and the 13 American Colonies.

    Yes, from my paternal side. They have left Navarre (Northern Spain) at the end of the 15th century and settled in Thessaloniki (Modern day greek Mecadonia), back then under the Ottoman rule.
    He is one of my Ancestors:

    Why would I hate modern day Spaniards for something that happened 500 years ago...? Do you want me to hate you for something you didn't do?

    So your ancestors were rescued by Ottomans like thousands of other Jews that were being persecuted out there.

    I hope you are grateful.

    You brought the Jews for one reason alone: to Ethnically Cleanse Thessaloniki. An Ottoman subhuman practise. Thousands of Greeks were evicted from the homes and their properties were illegally seized to be given to those Jews who hated everything that was Greek and Christian and later on even collaborated with the Turks in the Asia Minor genocide.

    No. The Ottomans were an historical enemy of the Portuguese Empire.
