Turkey isnt that case. 2, also there are already enough sources detailing turkish power, there was one from 2011 and one from 2015which are outdated, kept the other two Tag: Visual edit

This is the Republic of Turkey not the middle age of the Ottoman Empire. So a much more appropriate image of the Turkish Court of Cassation replaces the old image of an old king Tag: Visual edit
• 15:2315:23, 11 March 2018 diff hist −566‎ Turkey ‎ People have overloaded the lede with irrelevant info. Turkey has the oldest religious site? great but why in the lede? is Turkey some tiny country with nothing else to boast for an introduction? I put this in the proper place under tourism. and cleared the lede up. You dont have to mention all major urban areas, there many and there is a list below anyway. also please stop with adding so much stuff to the intro. too many irrelevant things, almost as if you want to put these things to make it look like Turkey has so little to know about it all has to be in the lede.
