History of Turkey
Historically known as Asia Minor or Anatolia, this vast region reflects a remarkable history and fascinating, with a bedroom set that dates from the eighth millennium BC. Anatolia has seen almost all major Western civilizations come and go, including the Assyrians, Hittities, Phrygian, Urartu, Greek and Roman. Treasures of artifacts, including what is believed to be the image of the painted landscape first stood back and shown at the Museum of Anatolian Civilizations in Ankara. Many of the artifacts in the museum are the only clues we have that the first civilizations.
Some of the best sites out of the Hellenistic period, as the remains of ancient Troy in ruins and settlements of Lycia. The most impressive of all is ancient Ephesus. It is believed that the Virgin Mary spent her last days in a small house on the outskirts of Ephesus, while San Juan Evangelista came to care for her. Now, a place of pilgrimage for Roman Catholics, the house has received official approval from the Vatican.
In 560 a. C. King of Persia, Cyrus, the whole world and all conquered and submitted shortly to the cities of the Aegean to his government. However, 200 years after they were defeated by Alexander the Great. Led the Macedonians eastward across Anatolia to India in search of gaining control of Asia. Indeed, he quickly conquered the entire Middle East, from Greece to India.
After being conquered by Rome in the second century BC, Asia Minor enjoyed centuries of peace. During the Middle Ages as a part of the Byzantine Empire became a center of Christianity.
The Great Seljuk Empire, based in Persia, was the first true Turkish state in Anatolia. This empire was a distinctive culture with beautiful architecture and design. The Seljuk Empire declined rapidly with Anatolia fragmented into a series of small emirates. The Turks went little by little in one of these states by one that eventually became the largest empire in recent history, the Ottoman Empire. The Ottomans ruled for more than six centuries, until 1922. The following year, in Asia Minor became the majority of the Turkish Republic, led by Ataturk.
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk was the main motor behind the development of modern Turkey. The former army officer became the first president of Turkey and direction of the country of the remnants of Ottoman Empire. Ataturk introduced dramatic reforms covering all aspects of Turkish life. Many changes, such as replacing the Arabic script with Latin characters. The Primary education is compulsory and become religious law was abolished. Women were granted equal rights to custody and inheritance and the rights of 1934 women had spread to universal suffrage.
Ataturk was and remains a national hero, a massive presence in the long history of Turkey. In each city and people will find reminders of the worldwide leader in turn.
