While the first thing that comes to ones mind when they hear the word "Turk" may be the Turkish people and the nation of Turkey, it may come as a surprise to many to hear that the Turkish nation and people can trace their history and origins to the eastern Eurasian Steppe, roughly corresponding to the modern nation of Mongolia. With this video we will examine the process by which the nomadic steppe peoples of eastern Eurasia know as the Turks lead the development of the modern Turkish nation in the Anatolian peninsula.
Hope you enjoy!
