Turks and Mestizos
The Turks are Mestizos. Rather than a small European (or Europid) elite moving into a "Indian" civilization (albeit, stone age civilization...that's not perjorative) and mixing...with waves of colonists then overturning the local ethnic dynasties, the Turks were a North Siberian, or Altaic elite (or "Indian") elite moving into old Europid civilization, and mixing...with waves of colonists then overturning the local ethnic dynasties.
They are near mirror images of a group of mixed races whom, do have a unique identity. It may take a while for these groups to assimilate these disparate qualities...languages, food consumption, genetics (you know, inter-marriage of elites and breeding for certain qualities, like Memory or Physique).
These are small groups, exceptions. The Turks, as a Central Asian ethnic group, are largely landlocked (except in Turkey...their most successful state but the state in the midst of the more turmoil in the world). A super state trying to compete with India, Iran, Russia, China, the EU and ME, has a tall order. Its central location gives it some advantage in crossroads of trade.
This is unlike the super state of the Mestizo, which in fact has a more difficult order in which to overcome and establish itself. The Mestizo is also divided by two countries wherein, a large minority of Mestizo's are politically active, but have also a large minority of Europeans...the Colombia, Panama and Venzuealan states. These states are in more turmoil than counterparts in Central Asia.
Yet, the flow of commerce is more Global...all of these states have ports.
There is considerable ethnic boosting going on, Pan-Turkism, La Raza...these are proto organizations seeking to define a people who have emerged amidst States with longer histories of testing traditions and assimilation of minorities.
The minorities, rather than being an ethnic mix, are instead, representatives of older, more established civilizations.
In Central Asia, the Turks might have more to worry about regarding their coming later into territories dominated by Iran, Greece and the somewhat lesser know Scythians...all Europids.
Meanwhile, the indigenous peoples in the New World have instead a Industrial Age people. The conquering of Central Asia was not a matter of technological superiority, while in the New World, the small faction of Conquerers has distinct advantages in Steel, gunpowder, horses, ships and cannons, in addition to the overlooked but probably more power uses of writing, including messages with greater clarity and most important of all, maps.
The domination of Europids over "Indians" or North Siberians, is far greater in use of these tools.
Nevetheless, the Mestizo benefitted greatly from the Revolution of 1776, in the United States, which inspired all of the Nations of Latin America, and resulted in their own revolutions, perhaps more related to Napolean, but certainly, the revolution next door had some provocation!
But one can see this in their own writing before the Napoleonic code, or even the French Revolution.
The Turks did have a similar revolution but quite late. The conservatism of Central Asia should be considered...the Autocratic tradition having no real opposition, unless one considers the Cyrus/Alexandrian age, which indeed had a great influence, but disintegrated into a cult of Alexander and a willful ignorance toward the founding Greek civilization.
Alexander was supposed to promote the "Essay on Civilization" as formulated by the Classic Greeks. Somehow, it did not take hold, though Amphitheater had been constructed as far as the border of China.
At that time the Turk did not exist. Or, existed as obscure, illitertate tribe (certainly learning from the contact with China...the intermarriages and the breeding of military skills) who had yet to intermarry into the Europid dynasties and...or, take advantage of an exhaustion of Europid empires, such as the Asokan, Kushan, and Hephthatlies.
In these rising and falling "litttle empires", the Turks began to move away from the increasing dense and capable borders of China and toward the more unstable, less populated, yet wealthy in the silk trade, of the West and the Middle East.
Similar too is Chaldea with the 'bleachers' of the Levant and the Zagros, which create a kind of bowl, into with flowed not just people, but two rivers.
Likewise, Central Asia is the empty middle of the bowl of the civilization bounded by Rome, Iran, India-Bactria and China.
The left side of the bowl solidified before the higher, colder, right side. Yet, from the right, and below the right side of the bowl, there moved two peoples in great, dramatic, and otherwise brilliant colonies..the Austrolasian, settling the South Pacific and Madagascar, and the Siberian, who settled North and South America.
One can see this a simple animated map of time lapse, but what is lost is the churning of different Europid cultures, inside the vast bowl, which then were swept Westward.
Such is the argument of the Nazi's, that this Aryan had a long history, a longer history than the Turks today, of occupying that land, and creating a Warroir caste, a Scholarly caste, a Religious caste and an Aristocracy.
But that bowl being so expansive enabled all kinds of manuvering around, and what is now a band of Turks.
