Was turkey christianized in 1100 CE?

No. Christianity was the majority religion in Anatolia by around 500 C.E. Since Anatolia was part of the Roman Empire when Constantine converted to Christianity in the 300s C.E., the areas closest to Constantinople were those first converted. 1100 C.E., however, saw massive immigrations of Armenian Christians to Anatolia, following the defeat handed to the Christian Byzantines by the Muslim Seljuks. Starting in 1200 C.E. would begin the Islamization of Anatolia, whereby large scores of Anatolians would be converted to Islam due to economic and social discrimination under the Seljuk, Ottoman, and other minor Turkish statelets.
