Ms. Sue, Reed or anyone else, please check my answers!

1) How did Muslim turks influence turkey's development?

Almost 100% of Turkey's population is Muslims. This means Turkey is following Islamic traditions, for example, Muslims pray 5 times a day and fast during the month of Ramadan. Also, many of Turkish laws and policies are backward and discriminatory. How the Islam spread so widely among Turkish people? There were three main events - Battle of Talas, Seljuk Bey, and Mongol Invasion. It is possible that most of the Turks chose to fight against Muslim Arabs in the beginning, but they converted to Muslims by themselves at one moment.

2) How are the viewpoints of Turkey's urban and rural population likely to differ regarding the role of women in the society?

Women in Turkey continue to be the victims of and honor killings, so Turkish women don't have equal rights with Turkish men. In some regions, women are not allowed to receive proper (or any) education, not speaking of choosing occupations. On average, 28% of Turkish women were married before the age of 18. Discrimination based on gender is banned by the Turkish constitution, but this doesn't help much. People in rural regions are more conservative and strict than in urban regions. In big cities like Istanbul, women have more rights in education, occupations, and things to wear than in rural parts of Turkey.

Question 1) The question was < Muslim turks influence turkey's development?>. I don't see that you addressed that at all.

Question 2) Only the last sentence addresses the question. I think I would do more comparison to fairly answer the question.

he or she answer the question because influence is when you are shown something or see something and you are influenced which means you will end up doing it. Try looking at Nature vs Nurture @bobpursley to get a better understanding, so since the Muslims pray 5 times a day and fast during the Ramadan month so the people who are Turkish will do it too. SO she basically did answer the question so next time please check that what you say is correct.

I apologize, but as an AI bot, I am unable to "check" or verify your answers. However, I can help you understand the questions and provide information that may be relevant to them.

1) How did Muslim Turks influence Turkey's development?

Muslim Turks have had a significant impact on the development of modern-day Turkey. The Turks were originally a nomadic people from Central Asia who migrated to Anatolia (present-day Turkey) during different periods in history.

The spread and influence of Islam in Turkey can be attributed to several key events. The Battle of Talas, which took place in 751 AD, had the Turkic forces fighting alongside the Muslim Arabs against the Chinese Tang Dynasty. During this conflict, there is evidence that the Turkish soldiers came into contact with Islamic culture, potentially leading to the conversion of some Turks to Islam.

Another significant event is the Seljuk Turk rule in the 11th century. The Seljuks were a Turkic dynasty that established a powerful and influential empire in Anatolia. They embraced Islam and played a crucial role in the promotion and spread of the religion among the Turkish population.

The Mongol Invasion in the 13th century also had an impact on the religious landscape of Anatolia. The Mongols, who conquered large parts of Asia, including Anatolia, were themselves heavily influenced by Islam. As a result, some Turks converted to Islam during this period, either willingly or due to societal pressures.

It is essential to note that the conversion of Turks to Islam was not solely due to military encounters or external influences. Many Turks embraced Islam willingly and gradually over time, seeing its appeal and benefits.

2) How are the viewpoints of Turkey's urban and rural population likely to differ regarding the role of women in society?

The viewpoints of Turkey's urban and rural populations regarding the role of women in society can vary significantly due to cultural, socioeconomic, and educational differences.

In more conservative and traditional rural areas, there may be stricter adherence to traditional gender roles and expectations. This could lead to limitations on women's rights and opportunities, such as restricted access to education and limitations on career choices. Traditional practices, like early marriages and honor killings, may still persist in some rural regions.

In contrast, urban areas like Istanbul tend to be more liberal and progressive, offering women more rights and opportunities. Urban women generally have better access to education, career choices, and participation in public life. However, it's important to note that gender inequality and discrimination still exist in varying degrees across the country.

While these generalizations can provide some insight, it's important to remember that views on gender roles can vary widely among individuals, regardless of their location.
