Really? You mean all those mountains and cities and such just
magically appeared during my own father's lifetime?

Those mountains and cites were not Turkey.


Wow.

The entire coast of Asia-Minor was regarded as part of Greece for
over 3,500 years.

Oh, darn it. You *don't* mean there was no such *place*, you mean
it had a different *name*.

There was no such place. Asia-Minor was regarded as part of Greece. It's culture cities and everything about it was Greek until the Turks perpetuated a mass genocide against its 20 million Christian inhabitants at the beginning of the 20th century.

You are the one who is wrong.


Oh, well.
