So? Peace in Europe is something unusual and we were lucky to have it from 1945 to 2022. The history of Europe is a bloodbath and the Turks took part in it. It's one of the reasons why Turkey is a European country, actually.

>Are you insane? The Hagia Sofia was built by Greeks centuries before the Turks arrived off the steppe.

Notice how the ancient Greek stuff is in Turkey now. Unlike the British, Turks did not move it. That's why I say the ancient European history is in Turkey, that's why Turkey is a European country.

Apart for the dominant religion, Everything about Turkey is European. Oh, and the dominant European religion has deep roots in Turkey and I'm not talking just about Hagia Sophia.

You should take a long vacation in Turkey. Huge enlightenment awaits you.

Certainly not for people with a clearname online presence, as you will land in a Turkish jail. Huge enlightenment awaits you there.
