Turkey is blend of Ottoman history and modern buildings. Blend of beautiful cinemas and mosques. Blend of oceans , mountains and rivers with most modern beautiful secular Muslims people along with some conservative Muslims that’s why turkey is favourite country for tourism. Alladin you must be proud of camel tribe festival because in turkey there is place where hazarat ayub ansari female camel sat. Turkey is blend of modern and historic things in a modern way. Well to be very honest Turkish race is beautiful with wheatish to medium white skin tone with balanced features . Turkish dramas, movies and songs are best. You know that Turks has now huge influence of their dramas in the world. Turkish products are beautiful.

What are the similarities between Turkey and Morocco? For example in Morocco there is a city that's called Fes and Turkey calls Morocco itself Fas. Also there are so many sayings in Turkish that are said in the exact same way as in Moroccan language but than in Arabic. Moroccans in general aren's Arabs but Amazigh and from my vangue research the mythological Amazonian women could have been Amazigh women, and they do have a history in the Turkish city Samsun. I myself am Moroccan but I feel like I look Turkish and I could pass on as Turkish if I could speak the language :) I'd appreciate your research, thanks

"Turquoise" is from "Pierre Turquoise" the Turkish stone .. Not the sea .. However I agree that sea color is much more beautiful than the stone.

[@lb3843]

Native Anatolian + Central Asian Turk = Anatolian Turks Did you know that the Oğuz Turks that came in to Anatolia already had a mixed DNA? The Turks that came in originally invaded Iran when they arrived to Anatolia they already had a mixture of Iranian and Central Asian DNA. Modern Turkish people though are mainly native Anatolian with a small percentage of Central Asian. Roughly 9% to 20% of their dna. If the Oğuz Turks were already half Central Asian that would make sense that Modern Turkish people today are only a small percentage of Central Asian.

[@IsmailBerne]

01:48 There aren't many camels left in Turkey (less than 1000) but yes, it is a native animal in Turkey and it is known to be there at least for 2600 years. In 1937 there were still 120,000 camels used mainly for transportation which were replaced since then by trucks ! 05:41 Beside hazelnuts, Turkey is also number one producer for abricots, cherries and figs.

[@aporia82]

Camel is not a native animal of Turkey. Native means that the animal lives in the habitat of the country. Camels now and in history were imported from other countries yet inbreed in Turkey for different purposes: transportation, military, and etc.

[@IsmailBerne]

​@@aporia82 You are right regarding the term "native". Thanks for the correction ! My comment was meant to inform that camels occupied a big place in Anatolian life and culture during the past centuries, despite the opposite being often told on KZbin and elsewhere.

Please pray that I am able to sell my property in India asap and rush to Istanbul😀💸

I am pretty shocked at the camal wrestling. I thought Turkey was a trendsetter in animal rights. I don't like that.
