EUROPID (Caucasian or White race Blumenbach; Caucasoid; European Temperate Race Agassiz; Homo sapiens albus Eickstedt)
One of the major subspecies or races of Homo sapiens, indigenous to western Eurasia and North Africa. The most important subvarieties or evolutionary tendencies are Cro-Magnoid (including Alpinoid), Indid, Mediterranid, Nordid, Orientalid and Taurid.
ANATOLID (Anadolide Eickstedt) Mostly Armenoid blend with Mediterranid (mainly the old Cappadocid strain) which constitutes the prevalent racial type among the Turks (of Turkey). Anatolids are usually finer-featured, more leptomorphic and somewhat longer-headed than Armenids proper.

That depends. Most people in modern Turkey are IIRC descendant from original Anatolian populace - meaning that they were there during Roman Empire. So I would say, yes. Actual Turks - as in, steppe nomads - are maybe 1% or so of genome.

They don’t look like stereotypical “brown” Muslims for sure, but to call them “white” is a bit of a stretch. They look visibly Middle Eastern with a Mediterranean complexion.
Some are, yes. Turkey is a heterogenous nation.

We are non-European Caucasians with some Mongoloid (Siberian/East Asian) admixture.
