Fascinating and Informative Reading ...

Great job of informing us about the Context of Christianity. Even after WWII, American College History Textbooks distorted the Dominance of Islam in Confining the West. Your Scholarship here is a welcome addition - and maybe it will contribute to alleviate the sense of unconscious inferiority which Muslims feel in most of the Western and Middle Eastern World. I remember the Sick Man of Europe (the Ottoman Empire) being a subject regarding the outcome of World War One. From your Writing, the consequences of the dismemberment of the Ottoman/Turkish Empire makes Erdogan not appear as absurd or ridiculous in the huge Place which recently built in the context of his Neo-Ottomanism.
