Çanakkale left the chat

Turkey is a beautiful country, rich culture, rich soil, rich architecture...

[sameerwahab]

Napoleon Bonaparte said: "If the Earth were a single state, Istanbul would be its capital."

[tomzamp]

Has a rich Roman and Ottoman history but what amazes me most is how they respect and maintain these monuments. Turkey has my respect

[master_Gz]

As a Greek traveler, I can say that Turkiey has an AMAZING history and culture. I have visited Turkiey 2 times and I want to go again! The people are really polite, even tho I'm Greek. Turkiey and Greece are brothers that argue with each other, and that's normal. All we have to do, is to get together. 🇬🇷❤️🇹🇷

"4% of the area covered by the ottoman empire"
Bro is Turkish

[yasarnuhutlu]

Ben bir Türküm ve bundan gurur duyuyorum

[Tunaaa]

To correct the mistake in the video: Most of Turkey's population is Muslim. Even in the Constitution of the State, it is written that it is "Secular".

[Neekoss]

The Republic of Turkey is not a Muslim country, it is only a country where Muslims are the majority, that is, Turkey is a secular country (there is an atheist population of 1% if I am not mistaken) With love from Turkey. . .

[kaisersoze]

1. Türkiye is not a muslim country. It is a secular democracy.
2. In that 5% of land, there approximately 13 million live there which is more than many balcanic countries.
3. It is not "Turkey" it is "Türkiye".

[Lil_Bruh]

There is also a province named "Çanakkale" (Chanaqqale) which has an asian part and the gallipolli peninsula as the european part

[diyyagmurceylan]

One of the information is wrong dude. Turkiye isn't a Muslim country. After the revolution, it became a secular country because of the Atatürk's Principle of Secularism.
