Pope Urban II called upon Christendom to go on the Crusades in 1095; Constantinople fell to the Ottoman Turks in 1453. You do the math. ^_^
Beaches Turks & Caicos and The Alexandra Resort and Spa are two of the many resorts located in the Turks and Caicos. These two resorts are highly rated.
There are a great many countries that were never conquered by the Ottoman Turks. Russia, China, Australia, and many more. You might narrow this down a bit by asking what country did the Ottoman Turks attempt to conquer, unsuccessfully. That was Austria.
The culture of the Byzantine Empire was predominantly Greek. The Greeks had already been exerting a strong influence over the eastern Mediterranean for centuries. The populations of the Balkan Peninsula north of Greek had been romanised and had a strong Latin influence.
The Turks occupied the Balkan countries for 500 years.500 years
Approx. 400 years
NO. Greece and Turkey are two separate countries that border each other. Greeks and Turks have a centuries-long blood-feud which has barely been put to rest, so it is offensive to many Greeks and Turks to confuse the two countries.
Besides the greeks, the romans(who just had different names), the turks, the persians, and surely many more smaller countries
The Greeks never lost their ability to write and speak. Greeks were under the rule of the ottoman empire, many Greeks (peasants) didnt have the freedom to learn how to write etc because they were in an enslaved state. There where many Greek schools even at the Epoch of the Ottoman Empire many Greeks were well educated and their abilities went far beyond just writing.
The Greeks fought for 10 years in Troy. It took them another 10 years to return home
Becaused they were enslaved in many continents for many years.
Muslims and Greeks differ especially in the fact that "Muslim" denotes a religious/spiritual commitment while "Greek" denotes a nationality. Thus, while "Muslims" can be found as citizens in many different nations, even of Greece, the term itself indicates values and views that are drawn from the religion of Islam, not from any particular nation.However, historically, people in the Aegean used religion as an ethnic identifier. Those who were Muslim were said to be "Turks" regardless of whether they lived in what is typically considered Greece or Turkey and regardless of whether they actually spoke Turkish. Conversely, being a Greek Orthodox believer made one Greek by the same token. Once it is understand that the question is more properly asking what the difference is between Greeks and Turks, the question is much easier to answer.The fundamental difference between Turks and Greeks is the historical reaction to the Ottoman Empire as an experience. The Turks see it as their historical empire and their birthright. In their view, it was a harbinger of peace, tolerance, and sophistication. The Greeks see it as the empire that destroyed the Byzantine Empire, reduced them to second-class status, stole their children through devşirme, and poached people from their religion.There are other minor differences, such as:Today, Greeks speak Greek and Turks speak Turkish.Greeks eat pork and Turks do not, but most of the non-pork dishes are identical between the two groups.Greeks are predominantly Greek Orthodox Christians and Turks are predominantly Sunni Muslim.
There are many more than four ethnic groups on the Balkan Peninsula. There are twelve national ethnic groups on the Balkans (Albanians, Bosnian, Bulgarians, Croatians, Greeks, Herzegovinians, Kosovars, Macedonians, Montenegrins, Romanians, Serbians, and Turks). There are also many ethnic groups by immigration, such as Italians, Germans, Russians, Ukrainians, and Cypriots.
