3 MEN in the BEGINNING: 1923-1960

Turkish Republic was founded in 1923.

There was Ataturk from 1923 till 1938.

There was Inonu from 1938 till 1950.

There was Bayar from 1950 till 1960.

Ataturk made Turkey a nation state. But he couldn’t complete his revolutions.

Inonu made Turkey outside WW2. But no economic growth in 12 years.

Bayar tried the first proto-liberalism by the aid of USA.

And then coup d’etats came. In the first one in 1960 the prime minister was punished by death.
