Şahin was born in Iskenderun, Turkey or Syria before the Turkish/ Ottoman occupation.
- monoideism 6y agoThe Ottoman empire ended in 1922. He's 55. That math just doesn't add up. Perhaps you mean the Turkish Republic?
- kingofpandora 6y agoİskenderun - and all of Hatay province - became part of Turkey just before the Second World War, so well after the end of the Ottoman Empire. The math still doesn't add up though if Şahin is aged 55, since at the time of his birth it really was part of Turkey.
