 ​ @ramsaybolton6405  Dude u r missing the point , Turkiye like iran seem to try to patent the whole clan thing over 50 years now more openly , it is one of the many offshoot projects which have taken prominence after the 1920s , part of why Turkiye is slowly returning to so called neo ottomanism (practically after 1955 as exposed with the instabul pogrom against the greek community) and Persia to Iran , the reason is mostly elitist , as for the record genetically Modern people in Turkiye have less than half of their genomes related to the ancient steppes of the central Asia , it happens ppl fall in love and like it or not in times of war have sex.

Also you seem to be missing one more point on how Ottoman Turkiye used the influx of caucasian people from southeastern europe and the caucasus despite the many coming of Turkic tribes and imminent breeding. This kind of evolution has also this near surreal nostalgia of many turkish ideologues in minor asia about a turkic khanate from minor asia and even bosnia and albania to eastern siberia. In mild terms being Turkish is as same as being European mostly cultural than genetic , heck a guy from Nigeria and 3rd generation german could be more european than i will ever be. The paragraph above , addresses ideas like Pan Turkism or Pan Aryanism , the last one reverting openly to proto nazism in 1979 AD as first developed after 1923 in Germany and applauded by right wing turks and the shah himself. Indians are of aryan origin , why they see themselves the same way Khazaks do compare to these extremist claims?
