Happy Republic Day!

Today, we are proudly celebrating the 88th anniversary of Turkish Republic (Cumhuriyet Bayrami).

After the War of Independence, Turkish Grand National Assembly under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk declared the new form of Turkish government as the republic on this day in 1923.
 
We would like to take this opportunity to present our gratitude to the Great Leader Atatürk and to all our grandfathers and mothers who made great sacrifices to serve our country and the nation.
