User:Kansas Bear/Turkic history
Turkic history is the common history between today's Turkic peoples. While the Göktürks were the first state established under the name of Turk, there were many Turkic tribes and states before the Göktürks.
Most of the Göktürk Tribes were descendants ???[1] a tribal confederation of nomadic peoples located at Inner Asia.
Turks also played an important role in bringing Eastern cultures to the West and Western cultures to the East. Their own religion became the pioneer and defender of the foreign religions they adopted after Tengrism, and they helped their spread and development (Mani religion, Judaism, Buddhism, Orthodox, Nestorian Christianity and Islam).
The beginning of Turkic history[edit]
The ???nationalization??? process of human communities living on earth begins with their transition from hunter-gatherer to farmer-herder. It is thought that the human communities that formed the Turks started sheep breeding in 6000 BC. This date can be accepted as the beginning of the nomadic Turkic culture.
