Most are just Anatolians historically who now speak Turkish.
lol issa fact
I thought I was Greek but I studied much into this, and I do know quite a bit of Pontic Greek, however I do not tie myself to Greece at all in fact, I have almost no cultural ties to most Greeks, Pontic's have their own culture similar to Greeks but we are very much interbred and I would say Pontic is more of a culture then a full on ethnic difference from many Turkish citizens in the region. The differing factor is some slight ancestral changes and religion/culture.
