Turkey can be proud of their dervishes. No man in a dress can spin the way they do...

Best so far!

Re: What should Turkey be proud of?

I checked up on Bulent Erzoy. She is a classical singer of Turkish, pretty famous too.

Going back into the past, what part of history, what very famous person (other then a singer), etc. can Turkey be proud of. For example, Armenia has lot's to be proud of but I don't know much about Turkey. Saying Bulent Erzoy is like if I say Sirusho. They aren't really what I'm talking about. The entire country doesn't know people like that. The world doesn't know people like that really well and in many cases at all.

I mean, come on, someone just asked you what your country should be proud of and this is all you can give me? What about one of the world's Wonders in Turkey? It seems like I know more about Turkey.

In history, it is a fact that Turkey took a lot from other nations, A LOT, but I'm sure there is something that Turkey can and should be proud of. Most Turks I talk to seem offended or pissed when I talk about what Armenia can/should be proud of so I want them to tell me what THEY should be proud of and I will feel happy for them. I won't feel pissed. We all can learn something from each other and should. There is no racism and if there is, I'm completely against it.

Considering the dances, Georgians have dances like that as well and they are fast little buggers, trust me. Just listen to their music and you'll get my drift. Persians have dances like that as well.

I know what you are Pal. But I don't think you stole it on your own, I spread the blame to the collective. To be fair I will say historically Turks can be proud of fore-fathers who were great horsemen (on ponies ofcourse, I don't think they got real horses til they made contact with Armenians).

Re: What should Turkey be proud of?

This really saddens me. Come on guys, I'm talking about a major nation. What should it be proud of? All I got was a celebrity, a dress, and ponies. I think we need to start hitting the books, including me. We've been so busy hating each other that we don't realise how little we know about each other. I think it's time we started talking and throwing out the people that don't let us do so peacefully.

Hate keeps people warm inside.

Re: What should Turkey be proud of?

Maybe they can be proud of this, even if it's all on the surface as the core is zionist.

Not everyone bro. Hate keeps you warm inside but slowly eats your heart out. You seem to be burning rather then keeping yourself warm though, lol. I think we need some firefighter's in here.

Anything else guys?

Re: What should Turkey be proud of?

Saco, if the few Turks on this forum will not comment on this thread then how can you expect Armenians to speak on their behalf?
I say the men in drag dancing is the best so far.
