Chapter: 7 South to the North of Turkey

     From South all the way to North of Turkey is covered with sea's. Some of the oceans are the Black Sea, Sea of Marmara,  Aegean Sea, and the Mediterranean Sea. The Black Sea is known to have warm water during the summer and  cold water during the winter. This causes very low life in the ocean. The Sea of Marmara is known to have many marbles. The Aegean Sea brought many issues between Turkey and Greece.  The Mediterranean Sea borders from west to east from Spain, France, Monaco, Italy, Malta, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosina, and many other regions.

Chapter: 6 Vacationing In Turkey

    Turkey has many beautiful sights to offer to tourist. Turkey is known for its majority of land being on the sea. I have Turkish heritage and also have few television channels. I always see the beautiful sights and land that the country is made of.  When I visit Turkey one day my goal is to go to Istanbul and shop at the outstanding stores and go to the beautiful beaches. One place that i would live to visit is Topkapi Palace. The Topkapi Palace in Turkey was the home of the Ottoman Sultans, about 400 years ago. The Topkapi Palace is now being used as a museum. Here is a photo of the Topkapi Palace.

Chapter 5: Settlement & Migration

     During the 1960's to 1970's Turkey is known to be a emigration country. Most of the Turkish people would migrate to the European countries, mostly west Germany. Most of  the people would migrate due to reuniting with their family, job opportunities, and better school. Most of the people would migrate to different countries because they didn't like the the government that they have to obey. Other than Turks migrating to other countries, many outsiders would emigrate to Turkey. One major component that help the population increase in Turkey is the amount of people who would migrate to Turkey. Down below is a image of a graph showing the statistic's of migration.

Chapter 4: Cultural Coherence

     The Turkish culture of  a huge role in the lives of  the people. Most of the citizens in Turkey have to obey the "tore". The "tore" is described as semi law that most individuals in Anatolia, Turkey follow. For an example if the tore says you have to marry a certain person they the individual has to obey the tore , other wise they will be punished or killed. The reason why I have explained the Tore is because most of the citizens in Turkey have to obey it. The Turkish cultural has it's up's and downs.  I would say most of the population in Turkey are not modern. For example, the headscarf issue. If most girls do not wear their headscarf they will be punished, or they will be called names and the public will think that they are not be loyal to their gods.The beliefs that the Turkish society has is the eye. The eye is known to protect people from the evil thoughts and eye. Most of the people in Turkey have the on their bracelet, or they hang it from their wall. The people believe that the eye can prevent bad things from happening.
     Other than the material that I have spoken of above, the Turkish society also has its goods to offer. One of my favorites are the music. The music in Turkish is just so wonderful to listen to. Their fashion is another. Some parts of Turkey such as Istanbul, are very fashion forward. They wear beautiful clothing and shoes. Another thing that is very outstanding about the Turkish cultural is their food. The food in Turkey is very delicious and tasty. Another thing that the Turkish society has to offer and most of the Middle Eastern benefits off of is the coffee.   I would love to visit Turkey one day and see many of the beautiful sights it has to offer. Down below i have provided some images regarding my information about Turkey.
