Turkic people are really interesting folk, don’t you know?
In short, it is hard to think of any other ethnolinguistic entity in history that conquered so vast a territory and founded so many empires and states, also contributing to world civilizations. The history of the Turkic peoples was an important factor in world history for more than a millennium until the emergence of Europe as the world's dominant power. What happened in the Turkic world often affected the history of China, Central Asia, the Middle East, South Asia, and Europe. One may also argue that world history began with the "Turko-Mongol" empire created by Chinggis Khan. In the contemporary world, Turkic-speaking nations form six states (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, and Turkey/Türkiye) and several "autonomous" units in Russia (the republics of Chuvash, Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Altai, Khakassia, Tuva, and Sakha) and China (the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region). Turkic peoples also reside as minority groups in several other countries, including Mongolia and Iran, among others. It would therefore be difficult to acquire a comprehensive understanding of world history as well as our present world without studying the history of the Turkic peoples.
Make video about Mongolic peoples and other ethno-linguistic groups too bro :-)
So türkic is a big community then my realisation like I knew about siberia central asua and turkey also uyughurs but some minorities I have never heard of I mean the chinese minorities other than uyughürs and Bulgarian and moldovan minority

I'm from Kipchak group and I rarely meet people on the internet that know anything about my ethnicity (Karachay), but whenever I go to Turkey they get so excited to hear that we're from Turkic language family and they always treat us like we all are from one big nationality, which is so nice. So, shout out to all fellow Turkic people.❤

My ancestors were Kıpçak too, but then they moved to Georgia and then to Turkey. Unfortunately I dont know much about Kıpçak culture and language, but it’s nice meeting you:)
@@keepthefaith6171 we don't know much about Kipchacks culture as well, there is a lot of ethnic mixtures in this area so... Nice meeting you too 🤚😊

@@zayb3362очень много кипчаков вы найдете именно в центральной Азии,в основном это бывшие кочевники,есть ещё огузы и карлуки.

All your leaders were invited to Germany just a couple of days ago and welcomed by our president and the chancellor. All agreed to intensify the relationships.
I'm Kazakh too bawyrym. We usually don't associate ourselves with being "Turkic" tbh. If you ask an average Kazakh how he identifies himself, he'll likely say I'm Kazakh. We do feel kinship with other Central Asians but Anatolians and Azeris feel distant to us. Kazakhstan needs to cooperate more with other Muslim countries like Iran, Pakistan, Turkey, Egypt, Indonesia. Unity in the Muslim world will bring prosperity that we lost centuries ago.
@@MuzaffarKazakhI agree with you, the only kazakhs I know identify as Turkish as their grandparents had moved to turkey and they only spoke turkish, kazakhs though do tend to stay together more distant to other communities. Hopefully one day there will be more enthusiasm from all the countries to cooperate like you said
say turks please. turkic is a made up word
Göktürks weren't the first Turkic state but the first state to be named after the word "Turk", priorly there already had been various Turkic polities like Later Zhao, Yueban, Xionite/Hunnic kingdoms,...
Canım dostum benim
Xiongnu kingdoms as well The history of the Gaoju is given in the respective entry in WS 103 + (pp. 2505-2508); until the beginning of Text 1.056/B it is extracted as follows. 高車,蓋古赤狄之餘種也初號為狄歷,北方以為敕勒,諸夏以為高車、丁零。 其語略與匈奴同而時有小異,或云其先匈奴之也。 The Gaoju are probably the remaining tribes of the ancient Chidi [lit. 'the red Di']. Initially they were called Dili. People in the north called them Chile, whereas people in China proper called them Gaoju or Dingling. Their language is roughly the same as that of the Xiongnu but at times has minor differences from that. Some say that their ancestors were the nephew of [i.e. indirectly related to] the Xiongnu.
"First Turkic Khaganate" is to distinguish it from the "Second Turkic Khaganate", which came later
Earliest name for Turkic people, according to Chinese historical records are actually the Tiele, which in Middle Chinese would have been pronounced more closely to *tegreg which is Turkic word for 'wheel' because they rode around the steppe in high carts. Similarly another name for them is Gaoche which literally means 'high carts' in Chinese.
@@YummYakitori"Dingling" was also another name applied to the Turkic people as per Chinese records

An interesting fact: When we the Hungarians aka Magyars moved south from the Ural Mountains thousands of years ago and mixed with the Nomadic Horse Archers even adopting Tengrism from them, before moving to the Carpathian Basin, The Byzantines asked for help from the Magyars to help defeat the Bulgars, Then in retaliation the Bulgars asked the Kipchaks for help to attack the Magyars, Then later the Magyars formed an alliance with the Kipchaks against the Byzantines, Then during the Mongol invasion the Magyars gave refuge to the Cumans and even allied themselves against the Mongols, but then the Cumans raided the settlements in retaliation for the people attacking them out of fear. Then later when the Hungarians fought against the Turks, but after occupation later on the Hungarians joined the Turks to fight against the Austrians. I mean talk about complicated politics back in the old days like 🤷

The Hungarian language is the most important source for reconstructing the West Old Turkic language spoken west of the Ural in the 5th-12th centuries. The study by Arpad Berta and Andras Rona-Tas deals with the etymology of about 500 Hungarian words which are or may be of Old Turkic, in some cases of Middle Turkic origin. The Hungarian-Turkic contacts began in the 5th century and lasted a long period. The earliest loanwords were copied from a Western Old Turkic idiom; the latest loanwords were borrowed from the language of the Cumans who settled down in Hungary in the first half of 13th century. The authors excluded the Ottoman words from the corpus. In all cases the authors give the etymology of the Turkic word, the reconstructed copied form, the form as adapted by the Hungarian language and the history of the word. The detailed introduction focuses on the former research, the historical setting and the technical framework. In the concluding chapters the authors reconstruct the Ancient Hungarian language at the time of the Turkic-Hungarian contacts and outline the structure of the West Old Turkic language. A bibliography and several indices help the reader to use the book. West Old Turkic: Turkic Loanwords in Hungarian, László Károly András Róna-Tas, Árpád Berta, László Károly

Turkic people triggered several historical major events like the Migration Period, Crusades, Age of Discovery as well as ending the Middle Ages with the conquest of Constantinople, fall of the Eastern Roman Empire.
Not to mention the fact that the establishment of Ottoman Empire caused a surge in customs duties for Europe-India-China silk road, thus pushing Atlantic countries like Portugal and Spain to seek alternate routes to reach those countries. Consequently, Portugal started to explore the route circumventing Africa and Spain tries to reach Asia by going west. Final results of this initial event were African colonization and the conquest of the Americas,
The name Ottoman Empire was made up. Archaeologists could not find even a single coin. The facts will come out soon.

Fun fact, Duke Vytautas of Lithuania invited 600 Tatars to live in Trakai because they were such fierce warriors, and still to this day their influence is seen in the architecture and food of Trakai, one of our most famous foods in Lithuania, Kibinai, is actually from them, and the best place to eat it is in Trakai. There are even some families that speak a off shoot of the Karaim language
Tatars and Turks still make a food similar to Kibinai, it is called as "çibörek"

Hello there! I am from Turkey and my brother in law is a Lithuanian guy. Şaşlık, çiğ böğrek, semaver and even that food that looks like pişi are actually show me how influential both the Eastern European cullture over Turkic cultures (in my case it is Turkey) and how Turkic culture were influential on Eastern Europe and it's periphery (i know Lithuania kinda more in like Northern Europe but still has lots of history with the Eastern Europe).

You also didn't mention the Turkmen people in northern Iraq (though highlighted on the shown maps) Population is 4-5 million, and the spoken language is Turkmen, which is the closest to Turkish and Azeri. Turkmen language of Iraq belongs to the west oghuz branch of turkic languages, and is different than the Turkmen language of Turkmenistan, which belongs to the east oghuz branch.

@@Karabulut96 Please tell me, where did you even get the idea that im not turkic in the first place? I'm part Crimean Tatar and Hungarian, so by your definiton im half Turkic because I'm also half Romanian (my fathers half Romanian half Hungarian and my mother is half Tatar half Romanian). If you look at videos comparing the hungarian and the Turkish language, they are nothing alike, except some of the vocabulary but loan words and influence exist. Grammatical structure is more important than vocabulary. For example, Turkish has 6 cases while Estonian has 14, Finnish has 15 and Hungarian has 18. I would say that 18 is closer to 14 and 15 than 6. Also credible sources like Britannica state that hungarian is Finno-Ugric/Uralic. I'm aware the Hungarians shared history with the Turks but the language is not Turkic. When people use that term they usually mean the language family.

TBF there's probably too little historic information about them to do that properly.
There is a lot of stuff missing, sure. But there are enough sources to reconstruct their history in general, their culture, lifestyle and especially politics. What we really don't know is what happened deeper in the northern steppe, to the frontier of Siberia. Apart from that, from Manchuria to Eastern Europe, we can actually precisely explain their history without adding any fictional events or even characters. @@mobo7420
Most of it are in Persian and Chinese sources, who were fighting them to the teeth. Their only friends were Sogdians, who were ironically also Iranic, but genocided by Mongols and Chinese alike for collaborating with (China)/softening(Mongols) Turks. And no way your arch enemies (Persia, China) will tell your stories.
The Greaco-Turkic alliance which culminated in a victory against the Sassanids in 627-629, after which the Byzantine and Göktürk emperors even partied at a feast, comes to mind regarding having "friends" - and no, the Turks did not make that one up, it were Armenian witnesses who wrote that down. But the Turks did write their own history in the Orkhon Inscriptions, which seemingly no one has ever heard of judging by these comments. If one does not attempt to read the Göktürks' own written sources, how can they even claim to understand Göktürk history, @@brainblox5629?

We should not give our children Arab, Russian, European names. For example, I have 2 names, İsmail (Arabic) Alper (Turkish) But I never use İsmail. I only use Alper. Also, my brothers' names are Taner and Caner. All of them are Turkish names with military meaning. I will only give Turkish names to my children.
@@alpertunga6792 the least nationalist Turk lmao. Jokes aside Bro you can name your children however you want, why do you have to be so overbearing. Any Turkish person can like an Arabic or a Slavic name and name their child that name. Even though if you give your child a name in another language, your child will continue to be Turkish.
kıpcheckmate 😂 Turkic language family is kinda fascinating how close all the languages are, almost like dialects in comparison to other language families. Almost the same grammar in essence but with a bunch of sounds shifts and different vocabulary soups.

Thank you for video, Im from Republic Başkortostan(Russia) ,and we are Turk People.
My country Iran is only comparable with Russia in terms of having the most diverse groups of Turks. We have Azerbaijanis (with all different tribes like Afshar Baharlu Karapapak...), Qashqays, Khalajs, Turkmens, Kazakhs, Khorasanis, and some more. Not even Turkey is close enough. This is a linguistical and cultural heritage and wealth. Unfortunately, due to a lack of education and protection, some of the isolated and less populated ones are in danger of extinction. For example, Khalaj (which as mentioned in the video is a totally independent sub-branch of Turkic languages) and Khorasani are endangered languages right now. Even the bigger ones are slowly being assimilated and creolized; the Qashqai people's language for example is heavily mixed with Persian now. I hope that someday these languages be taught in schools and even made co-official in their respective regions alongside the national official Persian language in order to be protected and used more. Otherwise, in the near future, there won't be much of this cultural heritage remaining. I know some far-right people in Iran would love to see this, but their ignorance is not important.
Obviously right now there are problems but when looking at the future i see Iranians and Turks side by side, i hope the people realise this soon
With Theocratic government in place? Nah man they will be busy with other stuffs such as forcing hijab in women rather than minority languages.
Also like the last 7 dynasties of Iran have all been Turks
@NVRBENSHOT persian_turk, though
"Persian Turk" doesn't mean that those dynasties were mixed ethnic Persian and ethnic Turk dynasties (there was generally no mixed heritage or only some but from non-Persian groups, such as Kurds, Georgians, Mongols, etc.). "Persian Turk" simply means "Iranian Turk", as "Persia" was the European name of Iran for centuries. So the dynasties were still Turkic, but they also considered Iran as a land that belonged to them (and not to Ottomans, for example), and gradually they became attached to it as their "motherland" and embraced an identity that was both "Irani" (Iranian) and "Torki" (Turkic).
In the balkans There is a turkic language called Balkan Gagauz which i speak it Fluently
gagauz speakers sounds like slavic accent in turkish
They speak more like Bulgarian Turks or Thracian Turks. It has nothing to do with what you said.@@user-ew5vg9sg1j
There is this manga called “A Bride’s Tale” by Mori Kaoru. And it was recommended to me by the people learning Turkic Languages in the Tokyo University of Foreign Studies. I think it’s a great way to start learning about the culture over there.
Thank you for this info. I will check this manga.
Japanese and Turkish may be difficult to define as relatives, but they are based on a common origin, at least when a Japanese and a Turk speak, they form the sentence in the same way in their brain. We think like Yoda in starwars for the British to understand.)

Two things to note on an amazing video: first, linguistic mutual intelligibility among Turkic groups is super-high compared to other primary language families. Within subfamilies, one can easily understand others, but even across subfamilies you can get there with only a little practice. Chuvash excluded; it's... out there. Second, Turkic/Mongolic relations go way, way deeper than what you mentioned. The Altaic theory has mostly been discredited, but all the same, the language families have remarkable similarities borne of millennia of contact, shared heritage, shared culture and political alliance.
Mostly because they've branched out relatively recently compared to Indo-Europeans and especially Afro-Asiatics. Most Turkic languages would be mutually intelligable less than 2000 years ago.
Yep i mean look at indo european, can a german understand an indian? But with Turks, there is so much similarities often it is hard to even seperate the languages and in many places we didnt used to, only after Soviets etc these seperations were made
The Altaic Theory was redefined in 2021 by Dr. Martine Robbeets from the Max Planck Institute in Germany. The real ancestral homeland of Turkic people seems to be close to lake Baikal, sandwiched between Pyongyang and Beijing, where the Jomon people of Japan also originated from. As someone who speaks Turkic, Korean and Japanese I can say that there definitely is a connection, even though they must have seperated much earlier than Indo-European languages for example. The new term for the language family is transeurasian languages. Japanese and Korean split quite early from "Altaic", which was a sub-branch and later split to Proto-Tungusic, Proto-Mongolic and Proto-Turkic languages. Another important comparison is the religion. Korean Muism, Turko-Mongol-Tungusic Tengrism and Japanese Shinto all have their roots in North-East Asian Shamanism/ Animism. Here is a short part from the paper: "The origin and early dispersal of speakers of Transeurasian languages-that is, Japanese, Korean, Tungusic, Mongolic and Turkic-is among the most disputed issues of Eurasian population history1,2,3. A key problem is the relationship between linguistic dispersals, agricultural expansions and population movements4,5. Here we address this question by ‘triangulating’ genetics, archaeology and linguistics in a unified perspective. We report wide-ranging datasets from these disciplines, including a comprehensive Transeurasian agropastoral and basic vocabulary; an archaeological database of 255 Neolithic-Bronze Age sites from Northeast Asia; and a collection of ancient genomes from Korea, the Ryukyu islands and early cereal farmers in Japan, complementing previously published genomes from East Asia. Challenging the traditional ‘pastoralist hypothesis’6,7,8, we show that the common ancestry and primary dispersals of Transeurasian languages can be traced back to the first farmers moving across Northeast Asia from the Early Neolithic onwards, but that this shared heritage has been masked by extensive cultural interaction since the Bronze Age. As well as marking considerable progress in the three individual disciplines, by combining their converging evidence we show that the early spread of Transeurasian speakers was driven by agriculture." The grammer is nearly the same between these languages and many old words are similar. Hence, the language family split first into two groups: Japano-Korean and Altaic, and later into these 5 language groups. Just as an example: After learning one of these languages, learning the rest was easy, even though it seems like the Turkic languages are grammativally more "evolved". One reason might have been the close contact and interaction with Indo-European and Semitic languages(Indo-Aryan Hindi and Farsi, Slavic Russian, Caucasian Armenian and Greek, Semitic Arabic). If we now also consider the fact that a big part of Turkic people became Chinese during the Tang dynasty, including the annexation of Turkic, Mongol and Tungusic lands, which was also a reason for the big westwards migration, there is a high probability of relation between these people.
@@seannolan9857 Indo-European and Afro-Asiatic are macro language families unlike micro Turkic (or Germanic or Semitic etc.)
@@KingKalas "Study says Japanese, Korean and Turkish languages all emerged from common ancestor in northeast China" "International study concludes that the Transeurasian, or Altaic, language family emerged from farmers in the West Liao valley and spread across Asia" "The link between the five groups in the family has been hotly contested, but researchers say there is archaeological and genetic evidence to support the theory" From SCMP.

The Hungarian language is the most important source for reconstructing the West Old Turkic language spoken west of the Ural in the 5th-12th centuries. The study by Arpad Berta and Andras Rona-Tas deals with the etymology of about 500 Hungarian words which are or may be of Old Turkic, in some cases of Middle Turkic origin. The Hungarian-Turkic contacts began in the 5th century and lasted a long period. The earliest loanwords were copied from a Western Old Turkic idiom; the latest loanwords were borrowed from the language of the Cumans who settled down in Hungary in the first half of 13th century. The authors excluded the Ottoman words from the corpus. In all cases the authors give the etymology of the Turkic word, the reconstructed copied form, the form as adapted by the Hungarian language and the history of the word. The detailed introduction focuses on the former research, the historical setting and the technical framework. In the concluding chapters the authors reconstruct the Ancient Hungarian language at the time of the Turkic-Hungarian contacts and outline the structure of the West Old Turkic language. A bibliography and several indices help the reader to use the book. West Old Turkic: Turkic Loanwords in Hungarian, László Károly András Róna-Tas, Árpád Berta, László Károly

Great to see such a detailed video about our people. Greetings to all Turks around the world from Azerbaijan. ❤️
Some other info that could have been in the video: In kipchak group, there's also lipka tatars. Who are small muslim minority in Poland, Lithuania and Belarus existed since medieval times. US film actor and ww2 veteran Charles Bronson has lipka tatar roots. There's also tatar minority in Finland, first muslim community there, they participated in winter war defending Finland. Name siberia comes from Sibir khanate wich was Turko-Mongol Kipchaks also ruled Egypt as Mamluks and stopped mongol advance in Middle East. Capital of Sakha, Yakutsk is the coldest city in the world, they leave engines of the cars there running 24 hours a day during winter.
Now that you mention it, Charles Bronson totally looks like a Tatarin! So cool
Tatars in your region have a high prevalence of a certain branch of R1a haplogroup of Y-chromosome. It is manifested mostly among modern Kyrgyz and South Altay people of Siberia, suggesting that those Tatars have Yenisey Kyrgyz as their ancestors. BTW, R1a is considered "Indo-European" while being heavily present among the Turkic people of Siberia, Central Asia and Anatolia. For example, modern Kyrgyz have particularly high percentage of R1a, something like over 60% of male population. Ottoman sultans had R1a as well.
The first mosques in new York were built by tatar from Poland

You forgot about Huns. They were the earliest known Turkic people to create a state of their own. Also, scholars are pretty much sure Turkic people originates from Siberia and Kamchatka. Some argues they were related with the first people who passed the Bering Strait and bring about Native Americans. Basically, Turkic people are always on the move throughout the history. They went everywhere and interact with other people. That is why they are somewhat different today.
Not only turkic people, but every people were always on the move so to speak.
@@benk932 I don't think any other ethnic group moved so far and so long as Turkic people. Orhers moved in a limited geography or time.
@@onur6145 There are distinct proves that Hunnic was Turkic language.
@@benk932 pretty much all of their leaders have turkic names such as ulduz and beru which are even today used. Maybe the people for mixed but but royal family was turkic
The diversity of phenotypes among Turks can be attributed to their historical nomadic lifestyle. Turks are a widely dispersed population, spanning from Europe to Asia. Consequently, it's not possible to make definitive generalizations about the Turkish phenotype. We are talking about a population that has been on the move for 3000 years. In other words, being Turkish does not necessitate having epicanthic folds (slanted eyes). For example, the Oghuz Turks may have fewer individuals with slanted eyes, while the Kipchaks might have individuals with fair hair and colored eyes. As I mentioned, Turks are a nomadic people, and therefore, the widespread belief that "Turks are Mongolian and have slanted eyes" is grossly inaccurate
Not really. One of the major physical features are the eyes. Like the video mentioned, you can have every other physical feature due to mixing, but the main shared physical feature are the eyes. I don't get why there's a systematic and coordinated effort on behalf of turkey and others in trying to deny where they come from. I have my own opinion on that, but im curious as to why you have your specific opinion when clearly it goes against the obvious truth.
@@harouttorkomian5897 Slanted eyes are not a dominant genetic trait. It can get lost easily. I'm not making this up. A result you can easily find anywhere.What exactly are you trying to say? I say that Turks are a nation mixed with other peoples because they are nomads. Half Balkan, half Turkish, half Greek, half Turkish. A person can look extremely European but still have Turkish genes because, as I said, slanted eyes are not a dominant genetic trait. What exactly is it that you can't accept about this?
@@harouttorkomian5897I think most people from the anatolian country named Turkey can't accept the obvious truth that most of them have no relation to the real Turks that once invaded the region, most people from Turkey look nothing like turks exactly because they have little to none steppe nomad DNA, and are instead just Anatolians that got invaded and they got taught a turkic language.
@@harouttorkomian5897turks have different features because every tribe adopted a different lifestyle, living in different weather other races impact will obviously change the looks of turkic people but the place we came is same central asia Altai mountains.
@@harouttorkomian5897anatolia is melting pot. Turks took anatolia from the romans. Which most of the empire were greek. And during that time those greeks were greekified anatolians. Like hittites, luwians, trojans, Phyrigians, lydians etc. Greeks first appeared in morea. After Alexander's conquest of anatolia those Ancient Civilizations disappeared and became greek . After Turkic conquest of anatolia became Turkish. Italian Merchants called anatolia Turcia after the battle of manzikert. So nobody has pure blood in anatolia and this makes us more valuable. We carry the bloods of Ancient world. And the Turkic blood makes the cherry on top. Personally i am from black sea region and my ancestors founded the first beylik in that region. My fenotipe is central asian like. But i am sure i carry other genes than Turkic blood and i am happy about it. I am happy because i carry the blood of those people of Ancient world. My Turkic part survived the the harshest conditions, they were the greatest warrior nation of human history and my anatolian part made a great Civilization. It is exceptional to have such a mixture.
