Ethnically, the Turks are linked by their common history and language and religion, which is Islam. With the exception of the Turkish tribe called the Yakut, almost all Turks are Muslims. Turks are the predominant ethnic group in Turkey and Turks live in many countries throughout the Middle East and Asia, including Iran, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, and China. This file on the Turks consists of one article, a cultural summary that appeared in the Encyclopedia of World Cultures in 1995. It includes information on history, settlement patterns, economy, kinship, marriage, family, sociopolitical organization, and religion
