Re: Another political question re: Tuffleverse

The History webpage I was directed to indicates that Turkiye (thanks for
the 
spelling reminder) was absorped into the IF.  If not, I don't recall it 
being mentioned in either the FSE or any other regional power.	In which

case, maybe I'll just take it *grin*.

But if my memory is correct, I'm sticking with a free colony somewhere.
