oh, you like dance I see, there are difference by areas. I don't know much about dance, but I prefer last one. Speaking of Turkey, I imagine arrabic country's customs but, from this video, I remind Irish Line Dance or Russian Cossack Dance. In Japan, Many sort of Bon-Odori(kind of dance)s are in every part of Japan. I don't know the details anyways

My fovourite is Horon but I can only dance Zeybek from traditional dances... in fact I'm very shy about dancing but I can't resist sometimes I can explain the differences basically: well... it's about geography and climate. for example karadaniz(blacksea) region is cooler and it's rainy most of the year and there are much mountains,also they eat fish more than others so people are energetic and fast as their dances, they speak fast think fast..fast.. but in southeasthern it's very hot(50degrees celcius in summer) and as you can predict hot weather makes people a bit lazier..
ofcourse we can't show the weather as only reason but it may help on describing ^^

If cooler place and eating fish makes ppl more energetic and thinking fast,I have to move to north right now In seriously, I agree with you. Geography and climate create human customs and cultures. Food and dialect in paticular in japan I think. Are there big differences between north and south in Turkey
May be you like this.(old japanese CM of Castella(kind of sponge cake)
just kidding. I just remind from "Horon" at first time I see it.
>we came from asia thousands of years ago!! oh, I didn't know that. sorry! but I think, this misunderstanding is not only me. most of ppl think that muslim = arrabic, isn't it? so, you mean Turkish ppl are asian who speak latin based language

I was in istanbul for four days and I got back to izmir this morning. I'll sleep some than I'll edit this reply with additional information but I wanted you to know that:
"we use latin based alphabed" means here: we use "abcçdefghıijklmnoöprsştuüvyz0123456789" to write the words that we think feel and say. it's just about "writing and reading" I can say that we used 3 more alphabets more than current one, in the past and first 2 were completely ours. we had used Arabic letters too and we got some additional grammar rules like "ki" particle but Turkish has been Turkish al the time and it's rules and words are been its own. we use it "to write" we got our own language . Who knows maybe we will change the letters after a thousand years later again but we'll be speaking turkish, still..
