Why Istanbul Isn't the Capital of Turkey?

De belangrijkste steden voor meer dan 2000 jaar en een van de weinige grote steden op twee verschillende continenten en zelfs dan wonen meer dan 15 miljoen mensen en is de grootste stad in Europa 10e grootste in de wereld en verreweg de grootste in Turkije het was de hoofdstad van het Oost-Romeinse Rijk van een 3 vestiging op 3:38 tot het werd veroverd door de Ottomanen in 1453 vanaf nu het werd de hoofdstad van het Ottomaanse Rijk met het Ottomaanse Rijk weg sinds 1922 echter Istanbul is niet langer de hoofdstad van de moderne Turkse Republiek Deze eer gaat nu naar de De stad Ankara!

so why did Turkey decide to move its capital away from a city as big let's go back in time a bit so we can see the full story is strumbled one of the world's most important cities. A bit further back than that in 1453 after years of Ottoman expansion all around the Byzantine / Eastern Roman Empire the ottoman surrounded the remains of the old Empire which was now effectively a city-state consisting of Constantinople and a few other scattered territories since their initial founding in 1299 was the Ottomans have moved Constantinople and a few others scattered territories since their initial founding in 1299 is the Ottomans have moved the capital of a few times already from so it's down to Bursa 

and then over to adrianople now known as I do your name and now look at Snowbowl presumably thinking it would be an awesome City to have his capital and so without going into too many details for which I absolutely make a future video about Constantinople was conquered after years of Siege Decades of previous ottoman attempts and over a thousand years of attempts in general the city was made the new & Final capital of the Ottoman Empire the theme is Hagia Sophia was turned into a mosque Pence the minarets and the city was not actually renamed yes the Ottoman Empire ruled these lands and expanded into surrounding lands for over 500 years afterwards but by the nineteenth-century it would eventually be given the nickname the sick man of Europe has its decent started the weekend and Province after Province started to gradually break away even if only to become part of France and Britain's colonial empires shortly after the turn of the twentieth century Europe set itself in what would be known as world war in which the Ottomans joined what would turn out to be the losing side at the end of the war British troops made their way into Constantinople and the Ottoman Empire was confined to the borders to make a modern turkey and then split it amongst the Victorious powers and after the Treaty of SEPTA the treaty was signed in 1920 between set Victoria's powers and the Ottoman Empire no further consigning automatic control to this part of Northern Anatolia with this park going to Greece to France this part of the UK this part to Armenia this part of Georgia and the area around the Bosporus 

is sea of marmara and the Dardanelles being declared in international Zone looking at these borders however one thing people probably weren't thinking was yeah sure that'll work perfectly fine and well to be fair I wasn't really attended to and it didn't work perfectly fine as it almost immediately escalated the Turkish war of independence the conflicts had already been underway for the past couple years as Allied Forces had already occupied parts of turkey previously but disagreement about the Treaty affect if we split the Turkish government into two camps the old Imperial government base in Constantinople who had agreed to the terms and the Turkish national movement established just a few months prior in Ankara then still not in the west has Angora or and Cyra and to fight against the Allied powers to restore their borders in an incredibly complex war that Jazzy already made it Go video on in summary though Greece was basically the only Power that actually really truly thought the church is resistance as Italy pulled out almost immediately to Russia and France by the warlike race was and so decided screw this war out the Turkish national movement was essentially an amalgamation of various different Turkish revolutionary forces with one especially prominent figure being van Mustafa Kemal

die natuurlijk later de eerlijke achternaam Ataturk betekent vader van de Turken kijken naar zijn erfenis een moderne turkey dit lijkt misschien een app titel en niet alleen omdat zijn gezicht is op alle geld het Ottomaanse Rijk was een heel ander land dan de Republiek Turkije dat we vandaag kennen als moderne Turken is nu een manier meer seculiere en westernized grotendeels te wijten aan de inspanningen van deze man met zijn nieuwe regering een strikt seculiere een zelfs gaan zo ver dat het traditionele jurk te verbieden voor een tijdje alleen om ze een beetje polariserende voorbeelden in feite hij zelfs het schrijven systeem dat wordt gebruikt door de Turkse taal van een gewijzigde vorm van Arabisch naar een gewijzigd Latijns alfabet verandert en zelfs terug gebracht oude Turkse woorden voor verschillende doeleinden voor welke ze eerder gebruik hadden van leningen woorden van Arabisch en Perzisch het Verdrag van Lausanne werd ondertekend in juli 1923 en de nieuwe Republiek Turkije werd uitgeroepen op 29 oktober 1923 zonder een jerk als zijn eerste zaken die ook nodig was om een andere taal dan deze nieuwe hoofdstad was de Republiek. Constantinopel

was officially renamed to Istanbul to Ataturk the said he simply didn't spark joy as a capital for his new Republic is the largest reason for this was because it's not a bolt had already been the capital of the old salts in it meaning that situated the new Republic's Capital back in Istanbul would essentially seem like a symbol that nothing has really changed that wasn't the only reason though since keep in mind the city had also hosted the headquarters of out of church the resistance movement in fact the movement originally started in the eastern city of eras of all the seeing as I was to stay yet another reason for a selection of capital a big city in the center of turkey today is Istanbul is still turkey's largest city and Incredibly important hub for finance trade tourism and basically anything else a country we need a hub for as well as a strategic location for NATO of which Turkey has of course in member has seen a massive population bill now taking the place as Turkey's second-largest City at over 5 million people nowhere near assembles 15 million.
