Khan's Den: Turkic and Steppe History터키의 미지왕국: 아나톨리아의 감춰진 역사아나톨리아의 풍부한 역사는 많은 위대한 문명과 밀접한 관련이 있습니다. 그러나 최근 1000년 동안 이 지역을 통치해온 터키의 역사는 결코 단순하지 않습니다. 셀주크와 오스만 제국만이 아닌, 덜 알려진 다양한 터키 제국과 공국들이 있었습니다. 이 에피소드에서는 그 시기를 집중 조명하여 왜 터키가 오늘날 터키계 민족의 고향이 되었는지, 그리고 왜 터키 문화가 이토록 지배적인지 알아봅니다. 셀주크의 몰락과 오스만의 부상 간의 복잡한 연관성도 살펴볼 것입니다.
