Turkey was so far behind the rest of europe in both an ethical and technological sense. Really pulled them into the 21st century. Not to mention forcing thm to clean up the poor humanitarian policies Turkey had. |
Are Turkey actually part of the EU, yet? I heard they're having trouble getting in because member states are worried about an Islamic nation holding too much power (Turkey's population = 120 million. Seats in the European Parliament are handed out depending on the size of your population).
