Ankara is the turkish capital, but is the second largest city next to Istanbul. It has a population of around 4.4 million, which is similar to London, and is the location for the Turkish government and much more a centre of commerce. Historically, Ankara dates back to the Bronze age Hatti people and was succeeded by the Hittites in the 10th century BC. Later years saw a whole host of visiting rulers to the country including the Persians, Greeks and Romans. Alexander the Great conquered the city in 333 BC.

The city is well-known for its Mohair products from the Angora goat, Angora being the cities previous and better known name.
