In hindsight killing all the Christian minorities like Greeks, Armenians and Assyrians was a pretty good step otherwise this country would likely be very unstable instead of being the most powerful country in West Asia and the Eastern Mediterranean.
>>225861653WAIT I forgot that Israel existed (Lol) so second most powerful country
>>225861653
>>225861653Genocididing minorities is good for the long term health of the country in 99% of cases, as long as you can get away with it
>>225861653>
>>225861653It turned eastern anatolia into an absolute Afghanistan tier shithole and decreased the overall quality of west anatolia too. Overall the turkic invasions ruined the true civilizational quality and trajectory of anatolia. It would be one of the best countries in the world in economic development and civilization without 1071 happening in both west and east. The turkic invasions depopulated the region and racially degraded it into an inbred subhuman wasteland with mongoloid admixture and in the east tribalized
>>225861711It's quite evil. I don't think even medieval mornarchs would go through such length. Only nihilistic dictators post-ww1 would do that.
>>225861952>It turned eastern anatolia into an absolute Afghanistan tier shithole and decreased the overall quality of west anatolia too. All provinces in Turkey have a high or very high HDI and western Anatolia is more developed than the Balkan countries.
>>225861653It’s objectively bad and evil. However, having a sizeable Greek and Armenian Christian minority would’ve not been good to the Turkish state at any point in its existence. Maybe the only positive aspect is that the Christians would’ve been wealthier and increase the GDP per capita stats so Turks can think they’re rich
>>225862395Thats because the land of anatolia is a beneficial area for civilizational and economic development that despite of its current demographics it still produces okay results. But this is a very reduced form of what it should have been its not its full potential achieved. Like if you invaded England and genocided them and replaced them with pakis it would still be economically fruitful but not as much it is now.
half of the threads made on this board are like 3 schizos seething about turkey daily
The Armenians and Assyrians were all unironically replaced by Kurds so I don't really think it helped Turkey all that much from a stability standpoint.The Greeks, maybe, but they were going to be heavily outbred until becoming an irrelevant part of the population anyways.
>>225862541True but this one's real
>>225862552Kurds have been battered into submission and Turkification and now Turkey can peacefully control upper Mesopotamia and the water of Iraq and Syria
>>225861792armenians were there first before the persian shah kicked them out, seems fair
>>225861653I don't think replacing armenians and greeks with far more destructive kurds who breed 3x more is beneficial
Actually wrong. Christcucks make for very good working class wagies. They don't really fight back and wake up every day trying to live a moral productive life. I mean just look at how rich Jews have gotten by simply following them around and using them for centuries.
>>225864525yeah keep talking bullshit, you discount jew.armenians all settled there during the russian conquest.
>>225864560All Kurdish provinces are below replacement rate now.
>>225864578>(Shah Abbas the Great) of the Safavid Empire forcefully relocated hundreds of thousands of Armenians during the 1604–1605 Ottoman-Safavid War. [1, 2]>During this time Armenian cities and villages were plundered and destroyed.[15][4] Many Armenians were brutally killed, subjected to violence or died on the way, less than half survived during the march.[16][17][13][18]>The deportation changed the ethnic demographic picture of the Armenian Highlands radically, greatly decreasing the percentage of Armenian population of the region.[6] Mass deportation of Armenians made them a minority in Nakhichevan (part of the present-day Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic of Azerbaijan), and also led to significant increase in the percentage of Muslims (Turks and Kurds) in other historical regions, including the Artsakh region (currently better known as Nagorno-Karabakh).You can't cry about replacing replacers
>>225864578>In 1603–1605, the Shah's troops, having defeated the Turks at Sufiyan, captured and once again plundered the cities of Nakhichevan, Tabriz, Julfa and Erivan.[45] Most of the residents of Erivan were forcibly relocated.[46] Since the summer of 1604, the territory of Eastern Armenia was systematically subjected to devastating raids.[47][48] With regard to the regions of the Ararat Valley bordering the Ottoman Empire, the Shah resorted to the tactics of "scorched earth",[49] the essence of which was the forcible resettlement (devastation of the territory[50]) of all local residents deep into the territory of Persia, along with all their property.[51][52]

>>225861653Yeah it did, idk why they seethe about other countries genociding them tho
>>225861695Good.
>>225864578Ah yes the ancient khanates of turkestan existed there until russya came. All maps and history is a lie my professor at baku University told me all this. Azerbaijan was first country and then Allah gave azerbaijan everything but azerbaijan good countrie so it gave avrupa afrika khanates to other people.
