The state tongue is Turkish. Turkic language group is diffused in a large part of Asia and has a broad usage there. A real strength of this language is in his roots and a possibility of conversion. Earlier Arabian ABC was used in Turkish, but it was not adapted to this alphabet. In the beginning of the XX century linguists decided to apply Roman alphabet. It is the best ABC for the Turkish language because it absolutely reproduces many word in script. But it wasn’t the only purpose of the reorganization. The content of the vocabulary was greatly changed. Scholars erased the Arabian and Persian words. Scholars applied many other notions of different Turkic peoples. There were made Turkish counterparts for the words that didn’t obtain in speech.

Dardanelles share Europe and Asia so here is a good way from one place to another. Through this way Greeks went to war with Persians and vice versa. Ancient Greek cities were situated there as well as the city of Troy. The events of the Trojan War took place in this area. It occurred because Trojans didn’t want to allow Greeks go through this way. After a few centuries a blind author Homer wrote his “Iliad” and “Odyssey” wonderfully describing these events. Troy was discovered only in the XIX century by the researcher H. Schliemann who had a time and means to please his curiosity and to disperse the doubts of many researchers.

But everything depends on you look at the map and choose where to go. Isparta, Ordu, Sivas and other beautiful places may become the place of your holidays.
