The guy in the 2nd photo pictured in the middle, looks 🇦🇱.
Dull_Cucumber_3908@reddit
I have no idea what a Turan is.
Pipimer@reddit
I dont know him but the second picture is to go f ck themselves, and seriously seriously how can you actually claim islands that combined have have a max population of 10 Turks?
Sensitive-Emu1@reddit
That second photo really doesn't have anything to do with Turan; Turan is not a land claim but the unification of Turkic countries. With today's values, it can only be the Turkic Union, just like the European Union. But I don't think that would work since dictators are not really good at getting along.
TurkOmbre@reddit (OP)
‘Mavi Vatan’ is part of Turkey so also, by the logic, part of Turan
Sensitive-Emu1@reddit
Mavi vatan has nothing to do with that Island.
Pipimer@reddit
My 5 year old cousin just draw the flag of Greece on top of Madagascar, so by the logic, part of Greece
Pipimer@reddit
So what's the point of the second picture? If it's just for ragebait this sub has truly fallen
Ujemegaz@reddit
I think their approach is more like Russian reasoning toward Nato. Security range
TurkishEngineer35@reddit
As a turk i would say it is the wet dream of grey wolves extrimists in turkey other than that nobody cares.
Significant-Ad-7182@reddit
Turanism is just dumb. I'm all for celebrating Turkic roots and reconnecting with our nomadic past but seriously some of our far eastern cousins have nothing to do with us these days geopolitically.
(Except Azerbaijan, they are our bros for life)
I say this as someone with Uzbek roots.
As for the confusing second picture please stop taking the MHP party seriously, they don't even take themselves seriously. They are more of a mafia then a political party. They will probably die off after the next election because parties life Zafer and IYI are taking over the real nationalist voters.
BurgurluGenc031@reddit
For who doesnt know its a ideology defending all turk or turkic countries and peoples includin mogols and hungarians should become a one and just ignore the second photo
OkoMushrooom@reddit
I had to look up what this thing was, OP next time when you post unknown things at least provide an explanation or a link. As for the subject matter this must be some kind of a joke, culturally and politically we are in Europe, the balkans is a European land and majorly christian on top of that.

Any of those islands could get destroyed by a huge earthquake. Santorini could explode any day. Most aren't even good for agriculture, why take them, more tourist money?
KillerPalm@reddit
Yawn 🥱 do we really need a another threads that’s going to end up being boring but Greeks and Turks arguing?
Early-Show2886@reddit
I agree with you there, although I'm of Turkish origin, but from the Balkans. Romania.

Where do you live now?
Early-Show2886@reddit
Locuiesc în Germania.
Archaeopteryx111@reddit
Cat timp ai trăit în România? Presupun ca ești din Dobrogea?
Early-Show2886@reddit
Da, tatăl meu era din Dobrogea, Mama mea este o șvabă bănățeană. Sorry my romanian is bad
Întrucât mama mea este germană, am putut emigra ca repatriați târzii.
Early-Show2886@reddit
Who is your question directed to? Turanism would only interest the Balkan Turks who still live in the Balkans today. Yes, I think Turanism is a good thing. Something empowering. A cultural and ethnic identity. Perhaps we Balkan Turks are somewhat stuck in the past, partly because of the long years of communism and the suppression of Turkish identity, look at Bulgaria, etc.
TurkOmbre@reddit (OP)
I am addressing all Balkians: Turks and non-Turks
Early-Show2886@reddit
ok, well, But for non-Turks in the Balkans, the question is irrelevant.
reverse_enthropy@reddit
What does Turkey think of megali idea?
TurkOmbre@reddit (OP)
Greek Nazism
Young_Owl99@reddit
Lol. Asking about our race based empire idea and calling theire nazism, what do you expect them to answer ?
mrgleman@reddit
Greeks were so ahead of their time we had nazism before Germany did. 🥵🇬🇷🙌👁️🫦👁️🧠💪🏻
reverse_enthropy@reddit
It was a rhetorical question but yeah
Mucklord1453@reddit
I full support Turan and a return to the ancestral Turan heartlands. I think they can thrive the best in the climate that made the culture to begin with.
Ujemegaz@reddit
If a Mongolian nationalist published such map, i wouldn't find it weird.
Gazdanadam@reddit
I think it's utter insanity
Archaeopteryx111@reddit
Turkish imperialism and revisionism.

What is this fictional painting the two apes are holding in the second picture?
LenaLena93@reddit
I don’t understand

We think it is a great initiative to build harmony and strength. We should join the movement.

Early-Show2886@reddit
Well, I see the Hungarians as distant cousins, but the question was actually directed at the Balkans. And there are still plenty of Balkan Turks living there since the time of the Ottoman Empire. For them, it's certainly something beautiful and good.
Difficult-Routine929@reddit
What kind of creative answer are you expecting?
TurkOmbre@reddit (OP)
That's exactly what I don't know, I am curious
Early-Show2886@reddit
This will certainly be something nice for the Balkan Turks where they live in the various Balkan countries.
envalemdor@reddit
Really ? You're supposed to be a Turk but do not know the difference between Turanism and Blue Homeland doctrine ? which has nothing to do with Turanism, press X for doubt.
More like "Here's a picture of Turkic countries, and here's a picture of a Turkish revisionism, that has nothing to do with Turan, now what do you think about idea of Turkey trying to build strategic partnership with Turkic countries?"
Individual_Page3212@reddit
Of the what?
SOHONEYSAME@reddit
lol.
trying to realize "Great Turan" = 13th Russo-Turkish war & yet another humbling by mother Russia.
TurkOmbre@reddit (OP)
Russia in 2025 is being turned on its head by Ukraine 😵💫
notnotnotnotgolifa@reddit
Wow epic i love it
Mysterious-Put1459@reddit
Never heard of it
TurkOmbre@reddit (OP)
Are you sure that you are Bulgarian ? Some area of Bulgaria is part of Turan lol
Mysterious-Put1459@reddit
Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Why not?
BankResident4559@reddit
Nothing more than a unrealistic dream
crivycouriac@reddit
Really nothing
