| The introduction states that "until 1922, Turkey was known as the Ottoman Empire." I don't think that this is accurate. I would say that "Turkey was the center of the Ottoman empire", but I'll leave the actual editing to someone who knows more than me. | |||

I think we should spin off Turkey (country) from the other meanings, at least once it becomes time to update this information in accord with the WikiProject Countries. -- April 14:14 Sep 3, 2002 (PDT)
- Given the fact that most of the inbound links are meant from the country (judging by the titles of the articles), I'd say there should be a block-format disambiguation at the top, with a link to Turkey (disambiguation) which lists the other meanings (actually only the bird, the others are merely dictionary entries which do not make an article).

- That would also work. I just based int on the Georgia (country) link. -- April
I'm not entirely sure that Atatürk's slogan of "Peace at Home, Peace in the World" can really be considered the Turkish motto. It most likely isn't the official national motto as one would normally understand it, but it does seem quite prevalent. Indeed, the Foreign Affairs site opens with it. I'll leave it in until hopefully someone more knowledgeable can clarify. -Scipius 20:57 29 Jun 2003 (UTC)
- As long as I know, that is the Turkish motto.--Alessandro Riolo 14:07, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
