Ataturk changed Turkey in unimaginable ways. Upon gaining independence after WWI, he set about to vigorously modernise his country. Customs and traditions that had endured for centuries were gotten rid of so that Turkey could modernise in a similar way that European countries had. The most prominent reforms of Ataturk concerned the nation's relationship with Islam. A staunch advocate of secularism, Ataturk sought to relegate the role of religion to the private sphere.

A little heads up that Crescent doesn't mean Islam. It always existed but it was just Ottomans which made it popularly associated with Islam.😊
The post-revolutionary minority has a sickening tradition of looking down on Muslims.

Kamal Atajew was a Sabatian jew and a direct descendant of the false messiah Sabatai Zwi. He was indoctrinated with the cabalistic indoctrination by his cabalist jewish teacher/priest Şemsi Efendi(real name Simon Zwi who was also a descendant of Sabatai Zwi) in his school from the time he began studying there. Only the Jewish students were admitted and studied in Simon Zwi's school as it was a religious school with the aim to educate or rather indoctrinate the children of the Sabatean Jewish families. The journalist Hasan Tahsin(aka Osman Nevres) and the finance minister Cavit bey were also Sabatian jews who studied in Simon Zwi's school. Şemsi Efendi was a father figure for kamal atajew who assisted him to get acquainted with the other Sabataist jews while they walked the same path in the enmity and hatred of Islam.
Later on in his life kamal atajew was a british agent to dismantle caliphate and destroy Ottoman when Ottoman was weakened after kamal atajew fled the Palestine front by retreating and retrieving the 7th army without informing the 4th and 8th army commanders that helped british besiege and entrap the 4th and 8th armies and enabled british to take over Palestine that would initiate the destruction of Ottoman for being forced to sign Montreux and the delegate to sign Montreux was kamal atajew's close friend Rauf Orbay advised strictly by kamal atajew in a top secret telegraph from Bahçe the subcity of Adana that was to be after forming Izzet Pasha cabinet. The british agent kamal atajew is a deceptive crypto jew and a fierce enemy of islam.

Ataturk is the greatest Turk after the Ottoman Empire. Without the leadership of Ataturk turkey would have been divided by the European forces but he proved them wrong.
Yeah he was a necessary evil because Ottomans works with the principles of Islam, and it's not Islam fault in that. When Ottoman participate in WW1 as axis power, they got a bad reputation. World view them as something evil after WW1. Some even think their culture is evil and their religion too. To make his people stand up he abolished Islam and Ottoman culture to made the European think, “hey we're not like Ottomans we're “modern” now”. IMO abolishing religious values and practices is bad as Europeans never saw their religion as bad and backwards they put religion and culture aside, and modern advancement aside. But Ataturk make culture and religion gone and make something only for Turks not for anyone

Exactly
Ataturk might have done some good things to the Turks but he abolished their great empire with the help of the West to weaken Islam and build a racist nationalist western like society that despise other races while forgetting that Turks themselves are a mixed ethnic group of Arabs, Mongols and others Asian and European ethnicities .. Turks weren’t even a country that had any impact in the Middle East during the 70s up till the 2014 when Erdogan with an Islamic party turned Turkey upside down and made something out of it .. Today Turks should be more idolizing Erdogan than ataturk who brought them the fake superior race ideas that brought them nothing but isolation from the world .. I can’t find a single turk that speaks English or any other foreign language yet they claim to be secular and educated and want to be in the European Union 😂
We are proud of having a modern and western revolutionary leader like him founding our country.
Istanbul would still be called Constantinople if it weren't for the Muslims. Try to give credit where credit is due.
Impressive that he stopped Turkey from becoming even more of a rump state, against numerous nations at once
Even more?

Fun anecdote: Ataturk questioned an Imam about Islam and realized he was not a real one but forgave him because of his honesty. Ordered him to study properly saying'' This place is a touristic location, what would you say when a Non Muslim would want to learn more about Islam? I will test you again next time I am here''
Hmm? What did he ask this imam?
@@makmet3024The conversation went like this:
Atatürk asked the Imam, "Would you like a pint of beer on this hot day?". The Imam rejected the beer saying "It is haram sir. I cannot drink beer."
Atatürk, curious, asked him "Why is it Haram?". The Imam, confused, replied "Because it is sir." In response, Atatürk asked "Is there no verse in the hadith or Qur'an that says Alcohol is prohibited? If so, which ones?" The Imam which couldn't answer the question said "Sir, I do not know how to read or write. I became an Imam because I had no job and I went to a Mektep when I was young." Atatürk, said in response, "Thank you for your honesty Hodja, we will give you the resources to study and teach the Qur'an." He then turned to the person next to him, Fevzi Çakmak, and said: "This is why I want to translate the Qur'an to Turkish. So people know what they are reading."
@@makmet3024 Atatürk knowingly said, "Imam, wouldn't a cold alcohol be nice in this heat?" The imam said, "No way, it is haram." Atatürk asked, In which verse or hadith does it state that it is haram? The imam could not answer.
What?.......
Qur'an 4:43, O you who have believed, indeed, intoxicants (khamr), gambling, [sacrificing on] stone altars [to other than God], and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it that you may be successful.
@@makmet3024 My comment has been deleted fully answering the thing but the Imam was illiterate and went to a Qur'an course in his childhood. He did not understand the Qur'an so when Atatürk asked him the question he could not give an answer on WHY it was Haram.
Thank you very much for this short, but information packed vid ; learned a whole lot.
Glad to hear it Adrian, this was a surprisingly hard one to make!
Ataturk was the Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee of Modern day Turkey who helped shape the country into what it is today!
Ataturk had great Commanding and Charismatic leadership skills like Ulysses S. Grant, while also possessing the brilliant tactical and strategical mindset skills like Robert E. Lee! Combined, Ataturk and his soldiers beat the odds that were stacked against them, fighting a multi-front war. Winning not just the battle, but the War itself And the Turks deserve my commendmoration,admiration, and my utmost respect!!!

As a Turk, I hate the ummatists who are hostile to the Turkish identity, linking the Turks only to the Ottoman Empire and the caliphate. Ottoman and caliphate are part of Turkish history. There were Turks before the Ottomans, and there were Turks before Islam. Today, there are Christian, atheist, deist, agnostic, Shiite, Sunni Turks. Atatürk is a great soldier who spent most of his life fighting for the Ottoman Empire. Turks respect great soldiers. Without Atatürk, there would be no Istanbul, Izmir and Thrace Turks today. Thanks to the Turkish war of independence he organized, we have such a beautiful state.
The Turkish identity is largely based off of/shaped by Islam. Nothing wrong with what youre saying but why do Turks vehemently try to deny/erase their islamic past.
@@zahradelprey It is nobody's business what the Turks did in their history. We Turks are proud of the Ottomans, the Seljuks and the Göktürk Khanate and all Turkic past. At the same time, we defend the modern Turkish Republic. We are also aware that the Islamists are hostile to the nation-state of the Turks and are doing their best to destroy it. Pakistanis and Afghans are constantly hostile to Atatürk, but they do nothing against the ignorance that destroys their own country. They come to secular Turkey they hate and harass Turkish girls. Turks are fed up with this. WE DON'T WANT ignorant and reactionary people who hate ATATÜRK AND SECULAR TURKEY.

There's a lot to say about Kemal Ataturk. Yet I will keep it in a few phrases. His efforts and vision transformed people of Türkiye from subjects to citizens, and the war-torn, completely exploited remnants of the empire, into a functioning country.
There are people in the Muslim world who, for ideological- religious dogmatic reasons, hate this great man.
Like any other great leader, Ataturk had his flaws, mistakes and shortcomings. However, Türkiye is different and more progressive than most Muslim-majority countries for the very reason that it started the forming 20th century with a leader like Ataturk.

Thank you man, (I think) fixed them shortly after the upload!
impressive how Ataturk overturned centuries of Islamic rule in just 15 years.
Turkey is a big country and sadly, a very polarised one.
It's culture war and one of the legacies of Ataturk.
I think Ataturk wanted Turkey to grow but under his ideals, he was in his mind guiding the people towards the right path, and wanted to enable them to eventually prosper as a modern republic. But for then when the state was young, like a child has to be often punished and guided by parents, he had to take control often and guide his nation towards the 'right' path.

Really amazing how such a leader like him accomplished so much despite the real threat of hard-line islamic fundamentalism and foreign interference potentially ending his life and undermining everything he worked for. It is undeniable that modern Turkey owes him and his cohorts a great debt. He is like Seretse Khama.

@@ibro8855 like Communist did in europe. He may have supressed religion for a while but religion never dies and certianly not Islam. It will always existed. It just keeps getting stronger. When you supress Islam it will only come back stronger and even more hardcore. Afghanistan and Iran are one example.
@@Beyonder1987 He did not supress religion in a way you think he did. He just toned down Religion's influence over society, which should be done in every country.
@@Agentblue009 Tone down? i think he did go far as replacing Written language from Arabic to Latin which is really insane to come think of it as the Turks have always known Arabic script. Added to that he brought into laws where Muslims cannot call to prey in Arabic which is the basis of all islamic teaching. He wanted it in turkish which is not acceptable in Islam. There are better ways to modernise a nation that be very aggressive. You take small steps, not a 100 steps. Others muslim leaders such as in Afghanistan and Sha of Iran tried to do what Kemal did but with a more aggressive tone which caused its downfall.
Don't forget the little-known conflict between one Kurdish tribe who mostly traded in dairy and another tribe who mostly traded in citrus fruits. So it was basically cheese Kurds vs. lemon Kurds 🥁

Nohhh!!! You can't compare a Gazi with an unofficial Murtad.

Don’t compare him to Mahmud II
Mahmud II was greater then him
Ataturk was greater than Sultan Mahmut the Second cause he achieved the reform of alphabet that Mahmut the Second wanted to do so in order to promote the Turkish language ( Cause Latin alphabet is much more adapted to transcript Turkish language than Persian alphabet )

Your review is so much flawed and miss so many points. Why did you not talk about his reforms in laicism section? He ordered translating muslim's holy book Kur-an. He dissolved cults, he cut privileges of sheiks and zealots, he gave women equal rights. Other sections are so shallow as well.
Very interesting, thank you. Do people know why the term "Six Arrows" was used (was it like Turkic nomads vibe?)? I have a vague intention to read a Kemal biography, never got around to it so far. What a crazy complex figure.
There were 6 "arrows" or political directions/doctrines of Kemalism. There are summaries online but this video also summarizes some of them. Kinda like how the "3 Arrows" movement is about standing against three political movements (Monarchism, Communism, and Fascism) the 6 arrows are 6 thing Kemalism stands FOR instead
@@noahschwartz1222 yeah sorry but what I was asking was why the "six arrows" themselves were chosen as symbols as opposed to "six bullets", "six paths" or another metaphor?
Six Arrow represents six sons of Oguz Khan. Oguz Khan is mythological ancestor of all the Turk. All the turkish tribes are descendants of his six sons. The names are Gun (Sun) Khan, Ay (Moon) Khan, Yıldız (Star) Khan, Gok (Sky) Khan, Dag (Mountain) Khan and Deniz (Sea) Khan. They are still popular Turkish names given children.
@@Ahmet-yu7jr thank you so much!
@@Kierkergaarder I actually don't know tbh, I'm assuming it's tied to some aspect of an earlier nomadic Turkic heritage.
Amazing video
Ataturk didn't dissolve 2nd parties out of fear, especially the fear of Islamists. 1924 the problem was eastern local revolts(mainly kurdish and small local rebellions), 1929 the problem was the economic decline in USA, the great Depression. 1934 the problem was Hitler's goverment and his vision that there will be a 2nd world war.

He is our father❤you are not turkish and normally u dont like him.bec he gave us freedom republic and everything.even after 1000 years turks will follow his father Atatürk! Know your place!
No he made turkey secular
Turkey's flag doesnt represent islam it represents blood of the martyrs at the night , legend here , you can search on the internet :
According to legend, the red on the flag is blood red and represents the shed blood of the martyrs. At midnight, the image of the Turkish flag is formed with the crescent moon and a star reflected on these bloods. It is said that this legend took place in the First Battle of Kosovo, which took place in 1389.

He seens a lot like Getúlio Vargas of the middle East. A very dificult figure to study … Thanks for sharing the vídeo !!
Thank you for the reference - I'm a big fan of post-1800 Latin American history; admittedly it's mainly the Hispanic countries. Will be researching Vargas more!
Turkey is not a middle eastern country
Great video man!! Really had no idea that he made turkey secular while also doing so many other big picture things
dude seems like he actually lives up the the title of being a father of a nation

I'd love to see one on Jinnah and his change of heart from Indian Muslim integration to separatism.
I think the entire Independence movement can be termed as seperatist. Jinnah's movement seems like a seperatist movement within a seperatist movement
@@johnxina5126 I have yet to come across any independence movement from a European imperial power regarded as a "separation" from the said empire.
Would love to do a video on Jinnah in the future!
@@HikmaHistory Jinnah and Ataturk had so many similarities. Both were certainly paradoxical. At least Ataturk made no attempts to hide his disdain of the Islamists and tried to mould the state accordingly while Jinnah was hobnobbing with the very folks he despised the most. He ate pork, drank like a sailor and yet he made a state in the name of Islam. Would love to see your video on Jinnah and would be happy to help in any way I can. I’ve read a lot about Jinnah and his metamorphosis.
@@HikmaHistory You could make one about Bangabandhu too. He separated East pakistan from West or modern day pakistan and created a new country called Bangladesh
He was a great man, if the Turkish youth follow his ideas, their country can come to good places. btw nice video
😂
@@user-ef1zm2pd2h Smartest moslem.
His cult of personality is one reason as to why Turks are so fascist on both sides wether it’s islamists or Kemalist
Ideas like the Sun Language theory were not that far-fetched for that time period. Remember, this was the period which saw the rise of Eugenics and "Aryan racial theories".
Those kinda ideas were more popular back then; but they can still be far-fetched. I'm saying objectively, they are far-fetched - regardless of context.
I am a pakistani here. Our country is destroyed by radical islam. Ataturk was a hero. You were lucky to have him. But were not that fortunate. Today my country is in turmoil. I will try to movie in a european country in future.
if Ataturk lived a few more decades he could have inspired and spread secularism and modernism to other muslim states across the world
Pakistan with all do respect is practicing the wrong version of Islam the islam version of Pakistan is radical Islam and terrorist group that kills people in the name of Islam that's why Pakistan is way behind but Islam is not the reason the reason is the misused form of Islam and ignorance because if Islam is used in a wise way no doubt Pakistan will prosper and corruption and any threats will be no nullified
Most of the people who hate K Ataturk are Pakistanies
its nice to see a seculsr pakistani person here. i hope you will be happy man. also i have an advice to you. make lots of secular children and educate them as secular pakistani people. fight for your country
@@sarpkaraba9057lmao most don’t care about him. Only reason he’s even relevant outside of Türkiye is the Ottomans. Plus religiousity and extremist views amongst younger Muslims is on the rise.
1:50 Er musste erstmal die Reformen umsetzen und das System gestalten, es war ein Prozess, sein Ziel war es dort hinzukommen, in einem Prozess bist du nicht sofort von A nach B
i love tjis man for eradicating conservative radicalism from Anatolia
Why do you block the Turkish symbol on the thumbnail, crescent and star have nothing to do with islam since it's a paganic symbol. Look at any arab country's flag (except north africa) nobody uses that symbol lol

being modern does not mean stopping piety or disregarding Islam, it means to move ahead and have progress and piety at the same time this is very much possible your nation can be a religious and modern nation at the same time #SaynotoSecularism
Long live Attatürk! The Muslim World need more men (or women) like him. He's among the few dictators (or authoritarian leaders) I respect. The others are: Gadaffi, Tito, Nasser, Lee Kwang Yeh and Rojas Pinilla from Colombia.
Kid mind your own business we all need Allah in this life if any atajew wannabe comes to other country they will be destroyed
Bro respects gaddifi 😂😂😂 what a lunatic
الله لا يوفقك 😂
Ataturk was evil. He oppressed conservatives greatly and disrespected islam by turning mosques into animal farms and night clubs and many other evil things.
don't forget assad of syria, he is secular too
fantastic look at Kamalism, really fascinating.
Thank you Mark, this was a difficult video to make (structure-wise) since the man had so many damn reforms!
Well, made it secular...for a while.
Doesn't seem like his successors are doing so good at that lately.
What with the undermining of the democracy, secularism and gender equality parts
Literally, like two days ago the Turkish government censored the opposition on twitter ahead of an election.
@@RusselKabirTR Actually, you’ll often find a lot of people in the US objecting to what they perceive as Christians imposing their views in others, like what happened after Roe v. Wade was overturned.
A hero
Based on the comments written here, and in response to some points the narrator didn't understand, I will provide a brief summary: Although Atatürk may seem like a leader with complex and inconsistent thoughts, the key to understanding lies in the political rhetoric prevailing worldwide during his time, such as fascism and ethnic nationalism. What makes Atatürk great is not only his planned reforms and military background but also his pragmatic success in implementing these reforms. Also, in comments section I saw some unrealistic stances (muslim out-siders), saying that "let's not abolish the caliphate, but rather establish a softer form of secularism". Well, this would have had disastrous consequences in the uneducated and susceptible society inherited from the Ottoman era(less than 10% literacy) turning Turkey into a mere cesspool in the Middle East. Last but not least: I can talk with you about this topic until morning. I have read more than 10 books about Atatürk, and currently, I am studying political science :)
Türk milleti ( Anadolu + Trakya ) hiçbir zaman sömürge ( dominyon ) olmamıştır , Emperyalist ülkeler ( Büyük Britanya, Fransa , İtalya ) Araplar ve diğer uluslar gibi sömürmemiştir; daima bağımsız olmuştur , Arap Sermayesinin sömürgesi olmayacaktır .
And that's being challenged by Erdogan today.
Rightly so
Erdogan is not really Islamist but a Little bit conservative.
Great warrior . A real hero with big balls. He has lots of shitty haters around.
@@RusselKabirTR These examples will not change the size of his balls you know. And our brothers should have stayed vigilant and strong. Always possible to see a new stalin, mao or kuteybe around.
@@RusselKabirTR Atatürk is a person who fought for his nation's independence, even If u don't agree with his reforms u have to accept that he is not like those.
It's sad that some people learn about Atatürk from erdogan sponsored sources.
@@RusselKabirTR U aren't worth talking.
Most of the haters are Arabs. Idk why they think their opinion matters.
@@RusselKabirTR Are you referring to the ethnic minorities that committed treason by supporting the invading troops of hostile countries during wartime ?
ı have to say the şeyh said rebellion is made by british goverment to take the city mosul . But ı cant say anything about the others
The Ottoman Empire always had a secular branch of government so secularism in Turkey isn’t entirely a new thing but ataturk pushed secularism even further
Wearing a Fez is a vibe, though
Couldn’t agree more
when II. Mahmud bringed fez some idiots were angry at him than Atatürk bringed hat and some idiots were angry at him too they are just typical idiots
I respect Turkish history and somewhat had some admiration for Atatürk
Thanks
11:36 Very few people in Turkey are of Central Asian origin. Most people in Turkey are of Balkan ancestry (Greek, Albanian, Bulgarian, Croatian, Bosnian, Macedonian and Bulgarian for example), Anatolian, Caucasian (Circassian, Georgian, and Armenian) and some are middle eastern such as Kurds, Assyrians and Persians. Most people in Turkey are assimilated into Turkic society similar to that of the Greeks when they colonized its territories with the Hellenization process. Turkish isn’t really an ethnicity but it is a national identity kinda similar to like being American or Argentinian
We miss you soooo much Ataturk ❤ Rest in peace ❤
What a great man Ataturk was
He wasnt
@@Wartensteiin He was great for his time! remember it was the 1920's and not 2023. So delusional you islam freaks and other lefties are. The great man saved a country from total destruction. The sultans sold the fallen empire to the west ;) The arabs backstabbed the Turks during world 1. All these things are not mentioned in the video. Utterly bad video about the legacy of Ataturk.

Ataturk is a great commander and politician he wanted to make turkey democratic but one of other partyies members kasim karabekir wanted to coup and they was wanting to make rebbels against turkey
If state adopt any religion, people quit. If State quit, people adopt. its a cat and mouse game.
Atatürk was one of the greatest men of the 20th century. Sure, he had his weaknesses, but he was great.
None Muslim, working for the enemy's of Turkey and Islam, ex jew
Are you a muslim??
He had the option of becoming a Caliph, and having all the privileges associated with such a position. He rejected it because it did not align with his vision of the future of the country he was trying to build.
Even if he had preserved it- what good would such a position be in the political context of the middle east in the 20th century? The Gulf Arabs wouldn't listen and would have used their wealth to overthrow and destabilise the country. In that sense, he did what had to be done and that is history, and the consequences are felt today.
The Turks have good reason to thank him for the decision he made and the state of Turkey today.

The steel-colored brightness of [his] eyes shines out of the warrior-like, sunburned brown of [his] face with an uncanny, captivating power. Eyes, within which the supple power and the ruthless will of self-assertion of the Turanian grey wolf twin- kles." Be it Aryan, Turanian, or even Mongolian, or, again perhaps obviously, Prussian-when, in the narratives, Atatürk meets the Kai- ser, Hindenburg, and Ludendorff in 1917-what his appearance and actions reaffirmed was the awakening and the "triumph of race." Schopen concluded:
He is nothing less than the incarnation of all warrior-like na- tions. The Turk is, in his moral qualities, one of the best sol- diers of the world. For him the victorious military Führer stands above everything else. And Mustafa Kemal, mathematician and carrier of soldier blood from his father's line, was a genius of the strategic idea."7
For most of these texts, Atatürk was the ultimate warrior-"battle was his nature."+ Froembgen described him as "a thunderstorm turned man." Melzig said in his Atatürk biography: "In him a he- roic spirit rose to the light from the depth of thousands of years." Froembgen also stressed, "He is a soldier the like of which seldom comes along." Atatürk's prowess in battle was stressed time and again: "The soldiers hesitated to throw themselves into the rain of death. Mustafa Kemal knows, here no order will be enough, here one needs to be a role model, to be a Führer."52 The Führer as a role model for everybody-in battle, for the Turkish farmer with his model farm, but also for the ordinary Turk, when it comes to demeanor, dress, and indeed everything-was a constant theme of these texts.53
Descriptions of Atatürk's aura elevated him to messianistic levels. With his deeds at Gallipoli during World War I, Atatürk emerges in these narratives not only as the imminent savior of Constantino- ple but as a transcendental "savior." Indeed, the formula "savior and Führer" was frequently put forward by some texts. Some stressed that one could feel a special aura, "a magic circle," in his presence he was "the chosen one."
who says we don't know that Allah doesn't understand every language but his final message is in Arabic when it is haram to change the Azan into another language besides Arabic don't play dumb
