Lots of People in Northern Europe think when they see a Gypsy thats a Sicilian or even Greek or Albanian and WNS, they think Gypsies look like Tamils......
They also think all turks are brown but the majority in northern and western turkey are pale and a good percent got blue eyes. Also People think Albanians are non-whites but they are normal white people.

Be honest who of you had these prejudices before being really informed?
Before the country now known as Turkey was invaded by the Turks in the 11th century A.D., it was earlier occupied by Gallic tribes who migrated there from Thrace in the 3rd century B.C. and remained the dominant culture until after the 4th century A.D. The Galatians were a European people closely related to the Gauls of Western Europe and the Gaels of Ireland and Scotland.
