071: Turkic Origins: Part One: Rise of the GokTurks

History of Modern Greece

In the first episode of the Turkic origin story, we go back to the end of the sixth century to the Eastern Eurasian Steppe, where a nomadic steppe tribe created the largest steppe empire the world had ever seen. This GokTurk Khaganate was the very first Turkic Empire.
The History of Modern Greece Podcast covers the events of the Greek People from the fall of Constantinople in 1453 to the Greek War of Independence in 1821-1832, through to the Greco-Turkish War from 1919 to 1922 to the present day.
