  4. The video was mostly correct but there was some mistakes i will briefly mention; 1- Turkic and Arabic tribalism aren't similar, one of the biggest differences Arabs have to stay in their born tribes while Turks could freely leave and join other tribes, in fact you didn't even have to be Turkic to join tribes. Because of this reason Turkic people were always mixed people even thousands of years ago and the origin of Turks is unknown while it is debated even if they were actually from east or west. Western Turks (Oghuz, Tatar, Uzbeks) were mixed with Persians, Indians, Greeks, Arabs etc while eastern Turks (Kazakhs, Kyrgyzs, Uyghurs) were mixed with Chinese and Mongols. Uyghurs were actually a part of western Turks and their language is pretty close to Oghuz/Turkish language but they were the first Turkic tribe who adopted sedentary life so while other Turkic tribes were migrating around they stayed where they were and became eastern edge of Turkic world. For example as an Anatolian Turk i can understand around 40% of Uyghur language but it is like 5% for Kazakh language. They are Turkic with thousands of same words but Kazakh pronunciation is so different i can't understand it expect very simple words. The fact Kazakhs have been living much closer to us than Uyghurs in last 1000 years which suggest this difference isn't something new rather even 1000 years ago there was significant difference between Kazakh and Oghuz languages. Kazakhs weren't originated in north of Black sea rather they were living in east as far as Pasific ocean same as Kyrgyzs. After their defeats against China and Mongols they migrated to there. 2- Living in such a huge 10,000 km area not all Turkic tribes were same nor they followed same objectives and had same allies. It is known Chinese army had some Turkic tribes during battle of Talas but seeing Arab force also had a lot of Turkic tribes they switched side or didn't join the battle. Same happened during battle of Manzikert and Turkic mercenaries of Byzantine switched sides and joined Seljuks. We might have differences, we might fight against each others but we would never ever support other powers against one of us! This understanding of being a nation really made Turkic empires strong as tribes weren't subjugated rather were truly uniting under one banner. And leading tribe would get Khan title, ''the leader of people'' so as definition suggests there couldn't be two Khans and if two Turkic tribes claimed Khan title you can bet they fought against each others like Ottoman and Timurid empires. It is often overlooked but Ottoman actually used Khan title for it's entire history, for example it was Fatih Sultan Mehmed Khan.. 3- It is true Arabic victory against China opened the gate for Islam to spread in central Asia, i think even if it didn't happen we were still going become Muslims rather in a later date. Tengrism has quite similarities with Abrahamic religions but it was very simplified so it made sense for Tengrists to convent to other Abrahamic religions especially Islam as there was no conflict between those religions. Even today there are many Tengrist traditions in Turkiye survived over 1000 years after being Muslim simply because they were never against Islam. Mongolic tengrism which was polytheistic and Turkic Tengrism which is monotheistic shouldn't be confused really as they were quite different.

  5. Quite informative video, well done! But i must say it could be even more detailed especially about Cyprus and why it was such a blow for junta. And you could also talk about American support to both junta and EOKA-B organization which staged the coup. Most of EOKA members always shared similar right wing ideology including enosis with junta regime even while they were fighting against British. It was because most of their leaders were already serving/served in Greek military including Georgios Grivas who actually fought in Anatolia against Turkish revolutionaries and always had a grudge because of their defeat. EOKA also claimed Turkish Cypriots were supporting Brits against them but it wasn't true as Turkish Cypriots rather stayed neutral. So when Cyprus became independent Turkish Cypriots and their ''too much'' constitutional rights became next major problem and there were attempts to change those laws within only few years. As a result all Turkish elected officials resigned from Cpyriot government in 1963 and established their own government. It was seen as a partition by hardliner Greek Cypriots and both sides began targeting each others so Cyprus problem didn't begin in 1974 rather at least a decade before that. After hundreds of casualties mostly Turkish, it was obvious there wouldn't be a solution like this so Makarios III began adopting moderate policies trying to convince Turkish officials to return to their positions in the government. It was seen as a betrayal by Grivas and his right wing lot so they began fighting against each others as well, they even tried to assassinate Makarios in 1970. With junta regime heavily supporting now called EOKA-B the infighting continued for years with thousands of Turkish and Greek Cypriot casualties. After Grivas died in early 1974 Makarios seized the opportunity and both granted amnesty for EOKA-B members and tried to exile Greek officers so junta regime had no option but act against him despite risk of Turkish intervention. After thousands of casualties, dozens of massacres, attacks against civilians including bomb attacks which were so widely committed EOKA-B was considered as a terrorist organization nobody was believing Turkey was going to intervene so junta regime could decide to stage a coup but they were wrong indeed. At first days of the invasion international community was fully supporting Turkish peace operation but after both junta regime then EOKA-B regime collapsed, this shifted greatly and even if there were still massacres against Turkish Cypriots happening many western countries began supporting Greek side. This possibilty was actually considered by Turkish regime and in that case northern half of island was planned to be invaded. So only a hour after last conference Turkey launched second invasion and occupied 37% of the island where Turkish Cypriots can finally live peacefully after decades of war. Turkey became a guarantee only to safeguard Turkish Cypriots not Cyprus itself so it could very well re-establish the state of affairs for Turkish Cypriots alone if their suffering could be ignored so easily, in fact none of EOKA-B terrorists faced trials for their crimes against humantiy even if they killed thousands of innocent people including hundreds of Greek Cypriots as well!! Such a ''lovely'' country Cyprus is indeed, Turkey will never ever accept an one sided solution which disregards the safety of Turkish Cypriots entirely. That's why the islands is still divided today and will remain so until finally there is a fair solution like Annan plan which 65% of Turkish Cypriots accepted while Greek side refused claiming an UN plan was somehow ''gifting'' Cyprus to Turkey... It is well-proven CIA was supporting EOKA-B as well and it makes sense as Makarios III was getting closer to USSR increasingly because of his fight against EOKA-B and accordingly junta regime which was US backed. EOKA-B stages a coup and rules Cyprus, win for US. Or Turkey a NATO ally invades Cyprus, even better win! Ofc CIA documents aren't declassified yet like operation cylone etc as trying to cause a war between two NATO ally nations is a lot worse than arming some terrorists against USSR you know. So it wasn't just between Turks and Greeks rather there were all kind of sides involved, good, bad, ugly, fascist you name it. We Turks are the ugly one, no matter what we do we are always guilty. It doesn't matter we never asked permission from anybody nor we will ever do while you can decide other ones i guess...
