You're friend is full of shit. Vikings are Nordic, originating in Scandinavia/ Netherlands, and the term typically has a connotation of those who are active in pillaging via amphibious assault, employing the military tactics, etc. of those of the region. The only instance of a Viking being a Turk would be when the descendants of Viking warriors, after conversion to Christianity, invaded the Byzantine Empire (which lays in the area Turkey currently controls), an Orthodox Christian empire which was invaded during the crusades, and settled there.
Generally, NO, the Vikings are as much Turkish as Indians are Spartans.37 Reply

Some Vikings did go into the Mediterranean sea, and others came down the Volga or Don Rivers, etc. So they likely were in Turkey at times, but the Vikings never were Turks.

Other countries mean the other nations.- +1 y
Asker: Actually, there is no reason to believe that the majority of Vikings went to other lands. While there certainly was a large migration, especially into England, by far, most Vikings stayed in Scandinavia. And comparatively minor numbers went to to other lands, such as France.

+1 yThe Turkish Nation has one of the oldest cultures and civilizations in world history. Turks have existed in almost every period of known history. It is not easy to determine the starting point and place of thousands of years of Turkish history. The Anav culture, which was discovered by archaeological excavations and anthropological researches, dates back to 4000 BC and is the oldest culture of Central Asia, is likely to be related to Proto-Turks. If this possibility is true, a very old history of 6000 years is the subject.
10 ReplyYeah nah, Vikings did come to Turkey and were even hired by the Roman emperor as personal guards and technically they maybe had a few children with Turks but Turks in general is not in any way connected to Vikings.

The 250-year-old history is full of disgraceful events and the US does not stop counting on the atrocities and genocides. After the United States succeeded in proclaiming its independence, the tüm Indian Relocation Act ında, which was enacted in 1830 to expand its territory, expelled all indigenous people from their territories.

The American genocide, the official state policy of the United States, was much greater than the genocide of Jews in Nazi Germany. Officials of the United States had paid $ 5 per Indian head. The Americans, “These wild animals, the Indians need to be completely destroyed”, the best indigenous dead indigenous policy that has taken the continent from the hands of indigenous people living on it for thousands of years. In this context, the first biological weapon was applied to the Indians. Blankets distributed to help the deported Indians were infected with a flower germ to kill a large number of indigenous people. The American genocide laid the foundations for today's America. The greatest genocide offender in the world is the United States. They massacred seventy million Indians in their homeland.

The United States means; it means the destruction of civilizations and cultures. This state, which absorbs and exploits the blood of the oppressed, continues its mentality, exploitation order and policy with the promises of “democracy, human rights and freedom”. The United States means history; literally means the history of invasions, wars, genocides, tortures, injustices, blood and tears. America is cheating the world with comic books, Hollywood movies, and a lot of history books that lie to justify what they're doing. For example, in most American comic books, films, and history books, Indians have been imposed on the world as skull hunter, barbarian, savage, aggressive and psychopathic. But the savage, the barbarian, the psychopath and the aggressor are themselves.

African slaves take second place after the Indians. It is known that 34 million 500 thousand African and Middle Eastern slaves died during the slave trade until the 19th century. The greatest genocide in history took place in 1492 after the European conquest of America. All historians admit that Americans have killed at least 70 million Indians and used 35 million people as slaves by pulling them out of their homeland.
According to the reports of the British Parliament in 1768 from Africa to America, the British 60,000, the French 23,000, the Dutch 11,000, Portugal took 1700 slaves, the total number of slaves sold that year 97,500'ü found. In 1787, this number reached 100,000 black slaves. While there were 2 thousand Negro slaves in the USA in 1681, it increased to 700,000 in 1790 and to 4 million in 1860. From the 16th to the mid-19th century, a total of 15 million black people were enslaved and brought to the Americas. Considering the casualties of the slaves, it is assumed that the number of black people who were detached from Africa and loaded onto ships was over 35 million. - +1 y
The USA, which is full of bloodshed, cruelty and massacres, has killed hundreds of thousands of civilians in Vietnam, Japan and Korea, Cuba, Panama, Guetemela, Nicaragua, Mexico, Philippines, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran and Syria. has committed the greatest atrocities and massacres in its history.
He invaded Mexico in 1898 and entered Cuba the same year.
In 1921 he invaded Nicaragua, slaughtered Sandino and 300 people.

I don't know it is stupid to think Turkish people and Scandinavian people could have anything in common. It is like saying Chinese and Indian people are same. Anyone can blue or green eyes due to their etnics, countries have millions of people living inside them. A color of an eye or hair doesn't make anyone Scandinavian, Middle-Eastern or American etc.
A little knowledge about history would give you the real answer. - +1 y
The only connection between Vikings and Turks could be only when Vikings made some raids on Byzentinum where they hadn't faced against Turkish people around these times. Vikings more involved with Russia, England, France etc.

Well not into trolling, but for you so be it. Let Vikings be Turks for you in that post.
