	Karamanlides
		Karamanlides are a Turkish-speaking ethnic group that are of Orthodox Christian faith.
		The sheer number of Karamanlides and the fact that their origins are in Anatolia, the heart of the Ottoman Empire would suggest that they were a large group of Christians given the choice of keeping their language or their faith as was common during the Ottoman Empire.
		The Karamanlides had no easy time in their new country, as they did not speak Greek, and during the dictatorship of Ioannis Metaxas, usage of Turkish in public was forbidden.

	[MGSA-L] "Birds Without Wings"
		Karamanlides were Christian Orthodox Greeks (Rum) living side-by-side with their Muslim neighbors in the heart of Anatolia until the population exchanges (stipulated by the 1923 Lausanne Treaty).
		On one hand there is the case of Karamanlides, a term initially intended to define the Turkophone Christian Orthodox population of the region of Anatolia (Anadolu) known as Karamania/Cappadocia, but which was later applied to all Turkish speaking members of the Rum millet in Asia Minor.
		The 'original' Karamanlides may be viewed as Greeks (Rômaioi/Rômioi/Rum) loyal to the Patriarchate of Constantinople, living in the Anatolian provinces of Pamphylia, Isavria, Cappadokia, Kilikea and Lycaonia (collectively referred to as the 'Karamania region') who did not succumb to Islamic conversion but were linguistically assimilated under the Ottomans.

	Karamanlides . Enpsychlopedia
		There is an ongoing debate as to the ethnicity and cultural heritage of the Karamanlides, although in the Ottoman Empire conversion from Islam to Christianity was punished by death.
		Karamanlides is an umbrella term used to describe all Greek Orthodox Christians in Central Anatolia who had adopted Turkish as their primary language.
		According to one theory, Karamanlides are the direct descendants of indigenous Anatolian peoples who had adopted the Greek language, Greek culture, and the orthodox religion.

		However, their "fellow countrymen" were defined as those sharing the same religion, rather than the same language, which brings us to the Karamanlides, a group which explains the existence of the above-mentioned churches.
		These were Turkish-speaking Christians who created a written language out of Greek characters, indicating that they were likely Greeks who maintained their religious traditions while adopting the Turkish language (or possibly Turkish settlers who converted to Christianity in Byzantine times and adopted the Greek alphabet for written communication).
		Suffice it to say, however, once the Karamanlides were deported to Greece, they quickly assimilated as Greeks and prevented any "Turkish Orthodox Church" from gaining any traction, since it had no members.

		During that distant Trapezuntine summer I was made aware that the history of the Greek people is by no means coterminous with that of the Greek state-a perspective for which I have always been grateful and which has informed much of my writing.
		On graduating I decided to explore in greater depth this fascinating and poignant lost world of the Greeks of Asia Minor, and in particular, of the karamanlides, the Turkish-speaking Greeks.
		But what was intended as a quiet year of sallies into the archives and libraries of Athens from the cloistered calm of the British School of Classical Studies was to be rudely shattered by the coup of April 1967.

	Recovering Macedonia by Risto Stefov - Part 9
		The Turkish speaking Karamanlides were sent to Greece, while Greek speaking Cretan Muslims were deported to Turkey.
		The Karamanlides lived in Karaman or Cappadocia and may have been Orthodox Christian by religion but they spoke and wrote Turkish and considered themselves to be Turks.
		In my estimation it is doubtful that the actual population of "Greeks" present in Greek occupied Macedonia prior to the arrival of the Turkish settlers was 43% as Clogg and others claim.

		But as even with this gross over-estimation the Hellenic majority in”"Aegean Macedonia”" remains overwhelming, Antonovski excludes from the Greek population the large number of Greek refugees who arrived from Asia Minor and settled in Macedonia, in 1923 nder the Lausanne population exchange Treaty.
		He claims that they are not Greeks, but Karamanlides, pure Turks (tsisti Turtsi) whom Turkey sent to Greece on the occasion of the exchange of populations because being Christian Orthodox they did not have a Turkish conscience.
		Turkey, according to Antonovski, wanted to be rid of them for that reason and at the same time because they might furnish Greece a pretext to claim on their behalf the Turkish territories they inhabited.
