Turkish people, since centuries BC, leaved from their homeland Central Asia and spread to Asia, Europe and Africa. In the geographical areas they established dominance, found empires with many states that dominated the world history. But different opinions have been asserted on the beginning, the continuity and the unity of the Turkish history due to the spread of our ancestors to a wide range of a geographical area, being under the influence of different religions and cultures, having different names of states (individuals, dynasties, clans) with the effect of geographical regions and regime changes. In fact, there are sides who advocate that Turkish history must be discussed since the establishment of the Republic of Turkey, initiated with the Ottoman dynasty, adoption of İslam by Turkish people, settling of Turkish people into Anatolia. With these different approaches, nationally qualified and leading historians of Turkey initiated Turkish history when Turkish nation took place in the historical scene in the Central Asia and advocate that it must be handled within a unity until today. According to those who adopt this point of view; the Turkish history initiated from the Central Asia and came to today in a unity and continuity. Dynasties, regimes, geographical regions, religions, state names were changed. But the Turkish nation, Turkish language, the socio-cultural and the social structure of the Turkish people have been always existed and continued by developing. It is the nation that establishes states and makes history. For this reason, national history must be initiated by settling of the Turkish nation on the scene of history. The great leader Ataturk also thinks that Turkish history should be initiated from Central Asia and states that Turkish people constitute the unitary unity since they settled on the scene of a history. For this reason, with his instruction, the "Presidential Arm", composed of 16 suns with rays and surrounded by 16 stars with 5 rays for each have been sealed on the Turkish flag.
