Persians, Macedonians and Romans were only a few that once lived in the boundaries of the Republic of Turkey. Land of Turkey was the heart of Byzantine Empire, and Istanbul (called Constantinople during Byzantine Empire) was the capital city of the empire. Majority of the archaeological sites reflect Byzantine and Ottoman Empire. Many Turkish culture and Turkish food comes from Ottoman Empire.
