TurkishCulturalPresentation.pptx
My cultural project is about the relationship between Turkey and Greece through a look at cities in Anatolia and the Balkans. The point is to show how intertwined people and places from Turkey and Greece are so as to prove that we have more in common than different through our past. I look at the Anatolian cities of Karaman, Silifke, and Trabzon, and the Balkan cities of Kommotini and Alexandroupoli. I analyze how they got their names and how Greek or Turkish people are connected to these places despite being in different countries. Ultimately, I just want to showcase that the two cultures are very similar and symbiotic due to thousands of years of influencing each other. Additionally, I really want to travel through Anatolia and so I really wanted to do a project on the cities of Anatolia. Lastly, my sources can be found on the Powerpoint slides.
