The Turks may be ignored[edit]

The document is about the nationalities (based on religion) in the Ottoman Empire. As may be seen, the "Moslems" (i.e. Turks, basically) are majority everywhere; but our file is in cats about minorities only. Does not it look strange to anyone else? Are Commons and WPs used to tell the story of only the minorities in Turkey? We the Turks are not taken into account? Interesting... --E4024 (talk) 20:17, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Another observation[edit]

Why is the map considering the parts of the Ottoman Empire (in 1914, even before the Great War!) that more or less cover actual Turkey? Did "they" (the Ottomans) knew they were going to lose, in a coming war, all the rest of their country in Europe and elsewhere? How? --E4024 (talk) 20:20, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
