Turkey History of Turkey Once again we see the "NPOV" content controllers at work. In the Turkey article, this is all they have to say about 1500 or so years of Roman/Byzantine history: QUOTE(Wikipedia) Anatolia was subsequently divided into a number of small Hellenistic kingdoms (including Bithynia, Cappadocia, Pergamum, and Pontus), all of which had succumbed to the Roman Republic by the mid-1st century BC.[29] In 324, the Roman emperor Constantine I chose Byzantium to be the new capital of the Roman Empire, renaming it New Rome (later Constantinople and Istanbul). After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, it became the capital of the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Roman Empire).[30] and then they go on to mention Manzikert and the fall of Constantinople very briefly. They don't say anything about the Greek Orthodox church, which is headquartered in Turkey. Well ok, maybe the "History of Turkey" article will have a little more detail? NOPE (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/nope.gif) it is literally the "The history of the Turks" according to Wikipedia. In contrast check out the Spain article, which gives a relatively fair summary under the "Muslim Iberia" heading; or the Greece article, which at least acknowledges that part of their history. It's kind of stupid... if I were Turkish I'd be pimping Byzantine history for all it is worth. |
