Why do you think Armenians still speak Armenian and adhere to Orthodox Christianity after centuries under Ottoman rule? Because Ottomans didn't force their language, culture and religion on the people they conquered unlike most other Empires. |

no, it's because we were determined enough to keep it
armenians, assyrians and other ethnicities were LEGALLY treated as 2nd class citizens |

i expect you to not understand that, turks have never had their culture endangered before
oh, maybe that's because they don't have a definite culture :) |
|
|
Our culture has never been endangered because we've never allowed ourselves to be persecuted or oppressed by a foreign nation. |

A form of forced conversion became institutionalized during the Ottoman Empire in the practice of devşirme, in which Christian boys were seized and collected from their families (usually in the Balkans), forced converted to Islam, and then trained as elite military unit within the Ottoman army or for high-ranking service to the sultan.
In the 17th century, Sabbatai Zevi, a Jew from Smyrna proclaimed himself the Messiah and called for abolishing major Jewish laws and customs. After he attracted a large following, he was arrested by the Ottoman authorities and given a choice between execution and conversion to Islam. He chose the latter option.
