Notes
One of the most obvious characteristics of the Turkish nation in the world's family of nations is its warriorship. Nomadic Turks, constantly looking for pasture for their animals on horseback, constantly changed their homeland. So much so that they went as far as Vienna and made the Europeans listen to their horseshoe clacking. European domination did not last long. After Suleiman the Magnificent, if we put aside the local victories, there were constant territorial losses. Especially in the 20th century. With the loss of Tripoli and the Balkans at the beginning of the century, land loss reached its peak. Imperialist states competed fiercely with each other to get a piece of meat from the sick man. They started to implement their insidious plans to expel the Turks from Anatolia and achieve their ambitious goals by riveting the beautiful Istanbul with the Bosphorus. Acting with the logic of "Whoever owns Istanbul owns the world"1, they planned to pass through the Dardanelles with less expense and shorter route. They thought that the Turks, who fled to Anatolia without firing a single bullet in the Balkans, would not be able to hold on to them again. But it did not happen as they thought. They bowed down before the spirit that steeled the Turks. As Cemal Kutay said, Turkish defense in Çanakkale; "It is the place where matter and technique truly come to their knees before spirit and heroism."
