Turanism, also known as pan-Turanianism, or pan-Turanism, is a pseudoscientific pan-nationalist cultural and political movement proclaiming the need for close cooperation or political unification between people who are claimed by its supporters to be culturally, linguistically or ethnically related and to have Inner and Central Asian origins, such as the Turkic, Mongolic, Tungusic and Uralic peoples, and sometimes other ethnic groups as well such as the Japanese and Koreans, as a means of collaborating towards shared interests and opposing the cultural and political influences of the Indo-Europeans of Europe and South Asia and the Sino-Tibetans of East Asia.
