According to Wikipedia,
Turks primarily live in Turkey. Significant minorities of Turks live in neighboring Bulgaria (see Turks in Bulgaria), Cyprus (see Turkish Cypriots), the Western Thrace region of Greece, Republic of Macedonia, the Dobruja region of Romania and Kosovo (especially in Prizren).
Immigration in the 20th century has resulted in large Turkish communities in Germany, North America and Australia. Sizable populations are (note that these are figures for Turkish nationals) also found in France (400,000 [31]), the Netherlands (350,000 [32]), the United Kingdom (300,000 [33]), Austria (250,000 [34]), Belgium (120,000 [35]), Saudi Arabia (120,000 [36]), Switzerland (80,000 [37]), Denmark (35,000-50,000 [38][39]), Sweden (35,000)[40] and Liechtenstein (884)[41]).
In the United States, the largest Turkish communities are found in New York City, Chicago, Miami, and Los Angeles.

Additionally, Azerbaijan has a language and culture similar to Turkish (the two nations consider themselves related), as well as other nations in Central Asia (such as Turkmenistan). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkic_people

Shwarma is Arabic for Turkish Doner. I think Greeks call it Gyros and make it out of pork. While Turkish and Arabic versions should be helal.
