Turan (in Persian: توران) is the ancient Iranian name for the Northeastern nomads.
Since early 20th century, the word Turan was borrowed by the western languages as a general word for Central Asia.
Accordingly, the phrase Turan Plain or Turan Depression is a geographical term referring to a part of Central Asia.

 CNN.com - The best films you've never seen - Nov 10, 2004
Turan isn't necessarily biased against studio films, or in favor of obscure independent works, complex foreign-language films or good-for-you documentaries.
Turan also singles out lesser-known works such as "Pipe Dream" (with Martin Donovan and Mary-Louise Parker), the French film "Dry Cleaning" and the documentary "East Side Story" -- the latter a particular favorite.
Turan, who's been the L.A. Times film critic for more than a decade, knows his picks are subjective.

When the Turan forces landed it was little more than a barren wasteland, but the Eldar were quick to begin rebuilding their once beautiful cities, and the planet was once more seeded with life.
Whilst the Turan alliance was still in the process of consolidating its position, the Imperium wasted little time in moving north.
The move was an ill-fated one, and the Turan Guard under Colonel Daveltshin sent the Unforgiven reeling, strengthening the confidence of the Turan forces fighting in the system.

The Turan Flatlands, also known simply as Turan, encompass an area from the Caspian Sea in the west, the Aral sea in the north, the Altai, Hindu-Kush and Kopet-Dag mountains in the south, and to the east the area including the ancient city of Ferghana, and the westernmost parts of China and Tibet.
In total size it is about the same lengthwise as the distance from the Mississippi River to the West Coast in the United States, or the distance from Lisbon to Athens in Europe.
In addition, the southern edge of the Turan area is subject to relatively frequent and severe earthquakes; in the last century alone, the city of Ashkabad (where the Akhal Oasis is marked on the map at left) was twice levelled by earthquakes, in 1924 and again in 1948.
