The 4th Repbulic day...The honorable Turkish men, women at all age are together around the sign: ''This is how we won the republic.'', Taken in the city of Uşak,1933.

Hatırlayalım, değeri daha net anlaşılsın...

29 Ekim 1923 sabahı Türkiye:
“

• 29 Ekim 1923 sabahı Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Devletinin nüfusu 13 milyon.
• 40 bin köy var 37 bin’inde okul yok, postane yok, dükkan yok.
  
• 30 bin köyde cami yok.
  
• Traktör sayısı sıfır. Biçerdöver sayısı sıfır. Pirinç ithal. 5 bin köyde sığır vebası var.
  
• 1 milyon kişi frengi. 2 milyon kişi sıtma. Verem, tifo, tifüs salgını var. Bitle başa çıkılamıyor.
• Dünyaya gelen her iki bebekten biri ölüyor. Her 5 anneden 1’i doğumda ölüyor. Ortalama ömür 40. Memlekette sadece 337 doktor var. Osmanlı Torunları bunu iyi dinlesin.
  
• 60 eczacı var sadece 8’i Türk. Memlekette sadece 4 hemşire var. 40 bin köy var sadece 136 ebe var.
  
• Komple kül edilmiş köyün sayısı binin üzerinde.
  
• Limanlar madenler yabancıya ait. Demir yollarının bir metresi bile bize ait değil.
  
• Osmanlı’dan ayakta kala kala 4 fabrika kalmış. Sanayi denilen işletmelerin yüzde 96’sında motor yok. 10’dan fazla işçi çalıştıran sadece 280 kişi. bunların 250’si yabancıların. Kişi başı milli gelir 45 dolar.
• Elektrik sadece İstanbul, İzmir ve Tarsus’ta var.
• Kara yolu yok. Otomobil sayısı sadece 1490. Bunun üzerine zaten dökülüyoruz.
  
• Mübadeleyle 400 bin insan geliyor. ceplerinde para yok iş yok başlarını sokacak ev yok. Sığınacakları akraba yok. Gelen her iki çocuktan biri yollarda at arabalarının sırtında ilk 2 ay içinde hayatını kaybediyor. Bir tanesi benim teyzem. Kendi ailemden biliyorum. Mağarada kalanlar var.
  
• Kadın insan değil Cumhuriyet’ten önce, eşit eğitim hakkı yok, meslek hakkı yok velayet hakkı yok, miras hakkı yok. Kadın kendisine miras kalan mallar üzerinde tasarruf hakkına sahip değil.
  
• Cumhuriyetten önce darbe yapmış bak kansızlar. Memlekette tiyatro, müzik, spor, heykel yok. Arkeolojik eserler padişahların hediyesi olarak Avrupa’ya kaçırmış. Kimi alaturka saat kullanıyor. Güneşin battığı anı 12 kabul ediyor. Kimisi zevali saati kullanıyor. Kimisi güneşin tamamen battığı ezani saati esas alıyor. ‘Saat kaç birader?’ diyorsun herkes başka bir şey diyor. Kimisi hicri, kimisi Rumi takvim kullanıyor. Herkes aynı zaman diliminde ama farklı aylarda yaşıyor. Ne ağırlığımız dünyaya ayak uydurabiliyor ne de uzunluğumuz.”

Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’s Revolutions

The Turk Women

"Everything we see in the world is the creative work of women." Mustafa Kemal Atatürk

• The new Civil Code, adopted in 1926, abolished polygamy and recognized the equal rights of women in divorce, custody, and inheritance.
  
• The entire educational system from the grade school to the university became coeducational.

• Atatürk greatly admired the support that the national liberation struggle received from women and praised their many contributions:

" In Turkish society, women have not lagged behind men in science, scholarship, and culture. Perhaps they have even gone further ahead."

• He gave women the same opportunities as men, including full political rights. In the mid-1930s, 18 women, among them a villager, were elected to the national parliament. Later, Turkey had the world's first women supreme court justice.

• Atatürk's Turkey has produced tens of thousands of well-educated women who participate in national life as doctors, lawyers, engineers, teachers, writers, administrators, executives, and creative artists.

Don't think the FITRAT changed, this blood is still same blood.

 

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Robert Frost (Stopping by Woods on A Snowy Evening)

Tebrikler....

I'm a big fan of the oguz and your nomadic history. of course on such days its always nice to reflect on it all

Happy Republic Day.

Is it me or does Ataturk look so much more handsome with a beard. I hope one day we get a movie based on his exploits in Libya.

He even made friends with the leader of the Senussis.

Just looking at the pictures of 29th of October makes my eyes tear up. Our trials are not over, and we're still surrounded by enemies. Bayrak inmez, Ezan dinmez, VATAN bölünmez!

Cumhuriyet günümüz kutlu olsun!

Gul Esin is a covered woman somehow you have idiots believing Ataturk banned the hijab lol

If so why is this woman covered? Another lie thrown down the drain. Ataturk did not ban it despite being a secularist.

There are a lot of pictures of headscarfed women fangirling on Ataturk, asking for autographs etc. I think it was only banned in parliament and for judges.

 

[Deliorman]

After a quick check in Google everyone can see that Headscarves were never banned by Ataturk anywhere and in any form and that such a ban was issued after the Military Coup in 1980 and was implemented in the hardest way after 1997. Still it was a ban on clothing in public institutions only. The ban on wearing headscarves by public personnel was lifted in 2013.

Also if i may add, any religious symbol such as cross or kippa was banned, but try explaining this to islamists.
