In addition, there are notable British Turks who descend from other post-Ottoman modern nation-states which still have significant ethnic Turkish minorities.
[2] From North Africa, Kasim Kutay has a paternal Turkish Egyptian background.
The majority are "Euro-Turks" who descend from Western Europe (e.g. Elif Shafak[8] have a Turkish French background; Atif Bashir[9] and Semra Eren-Nijhar[10] have a Turkish German background).
Some British Turks have also come from the diaspora in North America (e.g. Erdem Moralioğlu has a Turkish Canadian background[11]).
Some British Turks have also moved to other parts of the modern Turkish diaspora where they have acquired another citizenship.
