Turkey private tours – Republic of Turkey
Turkey private tours, as well as Turkey private round tour are possible due to the existence of the Republic of Turkey. The Treaty of Lausanne of July 24, 1923, led to the international recognition of the sovereignty of the newly formed “Republic of Turkey”. The republic was the successor state of the Ottoman Empire. After this Treaty, authorities officially proclaimed Turkey a republic on October 29, 1923, in the new capital of Ankara.
For the first time in centuries, the Turkish people enjoyed self-rule. After an election, they chose Mustafa Kemal as the first president of the Republic of Turkey. As a president for 15 years, until his death in 1938, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk introduced a broad range of reforms. They affected the political, social, legal, economic, as well as cultural spheres that were virtually unparalleled in any other country. We, on the other hand, haven’t changed our private Bulgaria holidays.
Grand National Assembly
The first Grand National Assembly under the leadership of Ataturk created a new political and legal system. It was based not only on the principles of parliamentary democracy, but also on human rights, national sovereignty and division of powers. Also, private ownership and secularism and the separation of religion and state affairs. Followed the establishment of a new, secular education system. The Arabic alphabet was changed into the Latin alphabet. New civil and criminal codes were adapted from European models. Sofia is an European capital and there are private guided Sofia tours.
Turkish women received equal rights under the law. They received rights such as those to vote and public office could elect them. Due to that action, Turkey stood ahead of many Western nations in terms of women’s rights. It was a revolution, unparalleled at its time and even today. That was a revolution that brought a predominantly Muslim nation in line with Western civilization and universal values.
It’s not a revolution, though, to contact us and find out more about Turkey. Also, ask about our tours and guides.
