The Greeks invented it like 2000 years earlier than that.

I think both the Greek one and this one are more accurately turbines, not engines right? Dunno how big of a difference that makes though.

We say “jet engine” though and that’s a turbine…

That’s true. Although there’s no piston jet engine to confuse it with whereas there is a steam engine and steam turbine that need distinguishing between.

Because the focal point of this is the stream power, not the döners. So, having come up with steam power 2000 years before the Turks is more relevant than migration patterns and cuisine.

There have been quite a lot of Greek guest workers in Germany after WW2 and many stayed here just like the turks.

There is only a German Wikipedia article about this deal, but before the turks came they first had guest workers from Italy and grece in West Germany. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anwerbeabkommen_zwischen_der_Bundesrepublik_Deutschland_und_Griechenland

I wonder if this was stolen when the turks stole anatolia from the Greeks?
