Mustafa Kemal Ataturk

Mustafa was a captain and first president of Turkey. He was born on the year 1881. In his life he was in them military and was known as a "military hero" in Dardanelles in the year of 1915. As the Ottoman empire colapsed he created the Turkish empire and got them settled as being there first president. In the Ottoman empire there was things he disliked and changed in his new formed nation.

One thing he didnt like was what they wore and he wanted to make people in turkey wear european clothes and instead of having the same hat that the muslims wore they wore european hats with grims on them. Turkey was created and established on 1923. He did his best to make his new nation as modern as he could. He was the president for 15 till his death on 1915.

He was not races in any sort and let any religon in but they had to obey his rules. His main concern was keeping his people and his land safe from any attack. Turkey was also anti imperialist so they didnt want to invaded and cause trouble for anyone. People see Mustafa as th3e father of Turkey because he was a good leader and there first prisdent just like how we see George Washington the father of our state .
