Before 2000BC the Hittites, an Indo-European people, established
an empire in Anatolia. The Hittites ruled for nearly 1000 years
until Troy & other powerful Hellenic city-states rose to power.
In the 6th century Turkey was incorporated into the Persian
empire. The Persians lost control of Turkey to Alexander the
Great, but the region was returned to the Persians when the
empire of the Great collapsed in 300BC. Travel this Web Page...
