Turkey is a place in which to wheel and deal in grand style. Among the kindred, Turkey is perhaps most infamous as the home of the Assamites. This clan maintains a secret haven in the Toros Daglari, a range of mountains stretching from the south across eastern Turkey.
The Assamites take little interest in the mortal running of government and only a passing interest in the regime of Prince Mustafa of Istanbul. They see the city as a place in which to conduct business, and if left free to do so, they are satisfied.
The presence of other kindred is limited. Visitors come to the city to sample its splendors, but few stay. Setites seeking to bring an end to the extremely harsh antidrug laws are an exception to this. Rumors also circulate that ambitious kindred have even found the means to contact the Inconnu through connections in Turkey.
The city of Antioch (in modern Turkey known as Antakya) is ruled by Zarathustra, an ancient Lasombra.
The Cappadocians having a major origin point of their founding by Cappadocius.

Terrel and Squib has Kakos stromithicarum plantations in eastern Turkey, grown within a few hundred miles of the cities of Sivas and Muş. The resultant pigment is usually shipped out through the port cities of Samsun or Tarsus to Rotterdam and from there into either New Orleans or New York City. This drug trade is managed primarily by the Marxist-leaning PKK, the Kurdistan Workers’ Party. But the entire operation is overseen by a German businessman; Lugar Krohn.
