What's the Origin of the Turks?

The most connected ruling house in Europe at the time is in Kiev. I don't think there's an ancestral homeland, there's not a whistle blowed at the beginning of play. The great plains and steps of Central Asia that more or less go from northern parts of the blacks and over the lip of the Black Sea are home to lots of people who are exploiting the environment for animal herding. So if you have animal herds, you want to sell their byproducts, dairy, meat, textiles and so on,. And so you want to live quite close to city populations because then you can get the things you want back in return.
