Let's face facts Paiktis. Human beings are like rabbits in that groups of humans can't live near each other for five minutes before they start having sex with each other.

Greeks & Turks have lived next to each other since at least the fourteenth century so it is safe to say there has been a significant amount of intermarrage.

So when you think about it Paiktis even you could be part Turk.

Many, many Greeks simply became Turks. First of all there was the boy-tribute system. Second, entire units of the Byzantine army simply joined the Ottomans in the 14th Century. Ohran's wife (or was it Beyezid's), IIRC, was the daughter of the Byzantine "emperor." By the 17th Century, the Sultan's had more Greek blood than Turkish blood.

Hell, the ruler of the Empire for a long time was Kosem Sultana, mother of Mehemd IV and Ibrahim. She was a full blood Greek. She ruled over her husband, was regent for Mehemd, and took over the empire for Ibrahim (he was totally insane). I should note this is about the point that the EMpire began to become more nasty.

Most of the major sities of the European part of the Empire were either founded by Turks or resettled by Turks after the Christians had fled. In most of the Balkans, Christians were forbidden from converting to Islam, because Moslems didn't pay taxes nor did they have to give up a son. Where they could, however, Christians converted in droves.

The only thing we're learning here is who is a racist or a bigot or prejudiced or obsessed with colour

The nationality of those blind, morally stunted people is no surprise in most cases either

I'm reading Lords of the Horizon right now, about the Ottoman Empire. I checked out five books on the Ottomans for research so I could write some more events in Europa-Universalis II.

Assuming that "Semite" and "Aryan" are even meaningful words when we describe "races", here's a link:

You might be interested to see that Danish and Iranian cluster right next to each other.

They're both Caucasoid, you mean...

Language categories don't correspond to genetics too well.

Anyway, the word "iran" itself comes from "aryan"...

?????

Please refer to the chart I posted.

Iranians speak an Indo-European language, their origins are Indo-European, even today their genetics cluster with Europeans... what more do you need?!

And yes, I can tell the difference between Europeans and Middle Easterners.

Hm, the chart listed Japanese and Korean to be close, however I read somewhere that there isn't any original Japanese people. They are composed of four distinct subgroups that came in via immigration. Two of the groups are Korean and Chinese.

The fact that you could write what you just did shows what an idiot you are. Middle Easterners are mostly white, dorkus. They are only slightly darker, like Italians, Spaniard, and Greeks.

Leave it to a Scandinavian to equate white with only Northern Europeans.
