The Seljuk Turks originated from Central Asia, specifically the region that includes modern-day Mongolia and parts of Kazakhstan. They migrated westward in the 10th century, eventually settling in Persia (modern-day Iran) and later expanding their influence into the Middle East, including regions of present-day Turkey and the Levant. Their empire played a significant role in the history of the Islamic world and the Crusades.
