Turks were forced to live under Ottoman yoke for more than 600 years.

Ottoman empire was never a democratically elected representative of Turkish nation or any nation at all. Turks were forced to live under Ottoman yoke for about 628 years.

Ottoman Empire was an extreme Islamist, Jihadist system of oppression based on conquest and plunder. Its sole purpose was to conquer, plunder and establish Islamist Sharia law. It had no banking system or a viable, contemporary economy, industry, science or technology. It had no nationality.

It was in stone-age and primitive. Every Ottoman official low or high was a person of non-Turkish origins recruited by force by its devshirme system from among its non-Turkish Christian subjects. Every member of the Ottoman dynasty was a child of slave Christian concubines of non-Turkish background. It had no desire to reform itself. It oppressed the Turks under its yoke the most. Because Ottoman dynasty was very much afraid of its Turkish subjects thinking if given chances Turks would take over Ottoman state.

It kept the Turks under its yoke totally powerless economically, politically, socially and every other possible way just to prevent them from rebelling and toppling its rule because Ottoman dynasty established its rule on the ruins of many Turkish states and principalities in Anatolia with very bloody and brutal wars. As if that was not enough, Ottoman Empire made the whole Christian and Moslem-Arab Worlds the staunch enemies of the Turks under its yoke.

It kept the Turks in the stone-age darkness; kept all the advancements in science, technology and fine arts away from Turks as Europe went through an enlightenment period and made enormous advances. Ottoman system of oppression declared every contemporary innovation and advancement in science, technology and fine arts as a major Islamist sin until its very last day.

In spite of tremendous odds (internal and external), it is an absolute miracle that Turks as a nation survived, won their independence and established their Democratic Republic of Turkiye.

So, why blame the Turks, who were only a subjugated nation under the yoke of Ottoman system of oppression which was a mixture of Greeks, Armenians, other Ottoman Christian subjects of non-Turkish origins (a collection of devshirmes including its bastard sultan), for the sins of Ottomans ????
