Millionaires of Turkey

This is sad.  But!!!!

The heart and soul of Turkey are the common, Turkish, Kurdish, Turkic and all of the neighbouring countries citizens living there.  There are a great mix of people in Turkey.  

The rich people, not all of them but many of them, when investigated made their fortune from two things:

1. The Greek and Turkish exchange of citizens.  Greeks went to Greece, Turks from the Balkans took over the fields, homes, and even businesses in Turkey and become rich over night.  

2. Reason was after the war, the Armenians were given land by the Soviet in eastern Turkey, which we know now to be Armenia.  Armenia’s were the richest and most successful group in the Ottoman Empire, they were all bureaucrats.   When they were forced to leave, the Turks took over their hazel nut fields, Fig farms, cherry operation and etc.  Again, many Turks got rich very fast.  

Remember, the ones that got rich, were the ones close to the party that was ruled by Ataturk, as Ataturk gave favours obviously to the ones close to him. 

 Now come 100 years to the present.  Most All of the rich donot like Erdogan, why? It is obvious is it not? The old rich families were close with Ataturk’s party (CHP), who received favours from that government. 

Look up the richest families of Turkey. 

Sabanci

Koc

Ulker 

These people are still the rulers of Turkey, behind closed doors and these are very old families.
