Who is stronger, Israel or Turkey?

Compared with the strength of Israel and Turkey, Turkey is stronger.

Turkey is known as the most powerful country in the Middle East, and Israel is also known as a superpower. The contradiction between the two countries has a long history. Turkey, in particular, hates Israel's guts and keeps making statements attacking Israel, causing tension between the two countries.

Strategically speaking, Turkey is much stronger than Israel. The basis of a country's comprehensive national strength is actually its own territory, as well as the size and strategic depth of resources. In this regard, Turkey has a land area of more than 780,000 square kilometers and a population of more than 80 million, which is basically dozens of times that of Israel. Israel's land is only over 20,000 square kilometers and its population is only 8 million. Therefore, it can be seen that Turkey is much stronger than Israel in this respect, and most of Israel's land is still desert, with a huge gap.

The difference between Israel and Turkey

1, land area and population

Israel is a tiny place with a land area of only 1.49 million square kilometers! Its available arable land is only 610.5 million mu, and the per capita arable land is only 0.72 mu. In particular, Israel's per capita water resources are only 0.03% of the world average, and the desert in the east of the country accounts for about 60% of the country's land area.

Turkey, with a land area of 783,562 square kilometers, is a country spanning Europe and Asia. Turkey's geographical location and geopolitical strategic significance are extremely important, and it is a crossroads connecting Europe and Asia.

2. Comprehensive strength and industrial strength

Israel can be said to be the most developed and advanced country in agriculture in the world. Israel's congenital deficiency is the lack of cultivated land and fresh water resources. Surprisingly, however, Israelis have achieved self-sufficiency in food with farmers accounting for less than 5% of the total population, and can also export high-quality fruits, vegetables and other agricultural and sideline products to all countries in the world. Because of a large number of exports, Israel was dubbed "European kitchen" and "European fruit basket" by Europeans.

Turkey is a veritable tourist country. Turkey has the sixth largest number of tourists in the world, with tourism revenue 14. Tourism is Turkey's main source of income.
