Its descendant is the great Ottoman Empire, and when it was falling apart, the country was liberalized to be the Turkish Republic by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, also known as M. Kemal Pasha. The Turkish version of the country name is âTürkiyeâ and it is debated in Turkey that the English version should be transformed into âTurkiyeâ because of the exact word for the bird type, âturkeyâ, and its offence to some Turkish people.
Turkey isnât just kebab and turkish delight with a bunch of Ottoman people, it is a European and modern country with many problems because of its jeopolitical position.
