      there’s like nothing alike between the ashina and osmanuglu but it’s funny an early 20th century person tried to relate them, lmao

        He didn’t really put any thought in it since iirc something like one story happens there for a brief time, it’s mostly aesthetic torn between “ancient nomadic people” and “mysterious oriental empire”

        And you don’t even need to go to early XX cetury person, for some reason i see every now and then in the internet people entartaining panturkic ideas who also do this, but in all seriousness.
