The Turks are a great people!  In spite of all this is an Islamic country that has their heads on. The have never paid heed to what other Islamic countries expect them to do they are in control and act like leaders.  They have a great foword thinking government and economy.  The people are friendly and if you want to see Ancient Greek ruins go there not greece!   I am not a follower of Islam But I believe Allah has Blessed the Turks!

According to my opinion there are two very important reasons why Turkey isn't a part of EU.\n \nThe first one is Turkey's foreign policy.The main obstacle to EU membership remains the unsolved issues between Turkey and EU member Greece.The most serious between the two countries is their dispute over the island of Cyprus.\n\nEU members have also expressed reservations about Turkey's human rights record.Amnesty International and Helsinki Watch ,two human rights monitoring organizations supported by the EU, have reported the persistence of practices such as arbitrary arrests, disappearances, extrajudicial killings, torture in prisons and censorship.\n\nEven though the Turkish government should work on improving the law about the human rights, I take Turkey's side, more or less. The Greeks have a lot of nationalism going on. The economical situation is practically the same in both countries.Turks shouldn't be punished just for being Moslems.43 years on the waiting list.. it's just too long.

Meaning of the flag\nIt's very difficult to explain the real meaning of a flag; there are legends, actual stories, and outright misinformation about the reason of certain colors or designs were put on national flags. Also individuals may have their own interpretation of their own national flag. Religious symbolism can also be expressed via color, such as the crescent moon which is a traditional Islamic symbol. \n\nHistorical facts:\n"Red has been prominent in Turkish flags for 700 years. The star and crescent are Muslim symbols, but also have a long pre-Islamic past in Asia Minor. The basic form of the national flag was apparently established in 1793 under Ottoman Sultan Selim III, when the green flags used by the navy were changed to red and a white crescent and multi-pointed star were added. The five-pointed star dates from approximately 1844. Except for the issuance of design specifications, no change was made when the Ottoman Empire became the Republic of Turkey and the Caliphate (religious authority) was terminated by Ataturk. Many traditions explain the star and crescent symbol. It is known that Diana (Artemis) was the patron goddess of Byzantium and that her symbol was a moon. In 330, the Emperor Constantine rededicated the city - which he called Constantinople (today's Istanbul) - to the Virgin Mary, whose star symbol was superimposed over the crescent. In 1453 Constantinople (Istanbul) was captured by the Ottoman Turks and renamed Istanbul, but its new rulers may have adopted the existing emblem for their own use"\n\nLegends:\n"A reflection of the moon occulting a star, appearing in pools of blood after the battle of Kosovo in 1448, the battle during which the Ottomans defeated the Christian forces and established the Ottoman Empire in Eastern Europe until the end of the 19th century, led to the adoption of the Turkish flag by Sultan Murad II according to one legend. Others refer to a dream of the first Ottoman Sultan in which a crescent and star appeared from his chest and expanded, presaging the dynasty's seizure of Constantinople (Istanbul). There are other legends explaining the flag."

There is not an exact answer for this question.. Neither the prejudiced thoughts of the European people about Turkiye(i know it is not said Turkey from now on), which is really strong country (and stronger than many countries in the EU) and which has a huge potential to help the EU in some ways, does not change and supposed to have fascists people living on it, nor a few people who dont want Turkiye in the EU because of the political reasons such as Cyprus, Turkiye doesnt seem to join the EU for 10 years in the future.. If it is thought that in spite of the NASA's experiences, they still fail, there cannot be any big process for Turkiye for going to the space until they join the EU..

I am half Turkish and it needs to stay a Secular democracy, thats what Ataturk founded the Turkish Republic on. Anyone who says other wise needs to read up on history.\n\nTurkey will never be a muslim state. The Military will not allow it.

en büyük... ah, whatever. I don't have it in me.\n\nI used to live right next to the Fenerbahçe stadium in Kadıköy and it drove me crazy. I learnt to hate football there :)\n\nThe only team I would ever support is the national team.\n\n(BTW see Erdoğan kicking around the old ball on TV last night? How bizarre is that? Can't imagine Ecevit playing footie...)

Its the same race...there are Kurds in Turkey also...but their nationality is different so they speak the same language and have the same traditions ... They have been trying to separate from both and make their own country for many many years now but it never happened

There are some political conflicts between the two countries and there were some conflicts in the history but poeople these days are just fine. One can always find someone to hate some other person or people, but in the level of individual people we get along just fine. As a Turk, we do not care much about them couse we believe that we are superior so we do not care much about any one who dislikes or hates us.

If you mean form of government, then yes, it's a secular democratic republic with a prime minister and a president.\n\nIf you mean the party in government, it's presently a majority government under the AKP, which means roughly 'Justice and Development Party', commonly called the 'AK Parti'. They could be called moderate Islamist, as they have their roots in more extremist Islamist parties, but are dedicated to preserving the constitution (which carefully guards Turkey's status as secular). Whether or not they are a wolf in sheep's clothing is difficult to say.\n\nAt the moment, their support sits at about 40%, a bit higher than it was when they were elected (the number of parties and the 'barrage' system in Turkey means that that's enough for a majority in parliament).\n\nTheir leader, the Prime Minister, is a man named Recep Tayyip Erdogan. He's become a bit of a media figure in Europe, as he travels a lot trying to get Turkey into the EU.\n\nThe president is a man named Ahmet Necdet Sezer. He's a former judge, and as far as I know has no party affiliation. He's taken a quieter role than many past presidents. He's seen as more committed to Turkey's secular identity than Erdogan.\n\nThere may well be an election at the end of this calendar year, though I believe that the AK Parti's term officially is required to end some time in 2007.

i just consider about that how do u deserve having a country.first you never had a country in history.second,if we dont see my first response you dont have qualified leaders to manage on your own,because as we see in history your brain only exist on terrorism and violence.third,you dont have enough population to have a country.fourth,if you deserve a country on lands which you think yours,turkmens in north iraq deserve a country too because they are living there troughout a long history,and armenians were living on eastern turkish lands which you want to have,then they should come and establish a country on these lands,in your opinion they deserve that too.what will you do in this situation?will you have another terrorist group or other abdullah ocalans to kill armenians and turkmens.i suggest you that doesnt work.--another point in my second and third responses if you could establish a kurdish country you will be a toy of imperialist countries.--and my asker friend i think you are a kurdish because i see you have an insular mind like most kurdishes i know in turkey.you can only dreaming about waving your kurdish flag(which is designed by pkk a kurdish terrorist group) but i am sorry they dont let you to do that after having your own country.try to have a peaceful life with your turkish and turkmen brothers and sisters.this will help you.as a muslim you know that...
