In Turkey the most common Ethnic group is Turk. The major ethnic group is Arab, and the lowest ethnic group is Kurd, Persian and other.

In Turkey the official language is Turkish. Other spoken languages are Kurdish and Arabic.Turky is unique in that it is one of the only countries in the middle east that speaks Turkish other than Iran.HoweverEgypt,Lebanon,Israel,Saudi Arabia, Kuwait,Iraq, Iran and Yemen spesk Arabic. Also Iraq and Iran both speak Kurdish like Turkey.I think the reason there is only one other place that speak the same languages as turkey because of were they are in the middle east. (meg)** =

= **Literacy is the ability to read and write effectively. The literacy rate in Turkey are 95% for men and 80% for women.These percentages are pretty high for men in the Middle East,However for women in the Middle East these percentages are low compaired to other countries in the Middle East.In all the other countries, at least 60% of the men are literate. Most women in the Middle East are literat except in Yemen where only 25% of the women can read and write effectively. It appears that most people in Turkey are literate, but it seems that mostly men got a well education unlike women.I think men have the highest literacy rate for me because mostly men went to school and got a pretty good education.(meg)** =

Religion inturkey is not berry diffrent from other countries in the middle east.Turkeys major religion is muslum with 99%.Some other countriess that worship the muslum religion like Lebanon.I think Turkey is Unique because there are only two countries in the middle east that study the religion of Muslum.I think the diffrent religions were pased down from country to country.(meg)** = = = = **Turkey is a unique country when compared to its neibhors in the middle east.People of Turkey are speak the offical language of Turkish where most other places in the middle east do not speak turkish other than Iran.Turkey is also unique because for men and women the life expectancy is (75%).Unlike other countries Turkey is one of the only countries in the middle east that are Muslum.Like most countries in the middle east Turkeys major ethnic group is Arab.Turkey dosent have the highest population density but it also dosent have the lowest population density, it is right in the middle.(meg)** =

=== **I noticed that you guys didn't add in personal observations so that might be something you'll need to put in. I appreciate how the author worded the intro and I think you did very well on that!! I also appreciated how you worded the conclusion, you put everything in that was required. I noticed that you used the font,color,space and size to deliver your message by making it very big and easy to read. You're pictures could be improved because well you cannot view them! Also I would suggest that you try to fix some spelling and grammatical errors. Overall I think you guys did a great job! -Julia M** ===

=== **I noticed you were missing your personal observations and pictures, so you should go back and add what you need! I enjoyed how you made the font bigger, bold, and a color. It was not only easier to read but it was also more appealing to the reader as well. Also i suggest you go back and fix some spelling and grammar errors. Over all you did a nice job! I can tell there was a lot of thought put into this, but don't forget anything! - Nikki W.** ===
