HISTORY TIME! TARİH ZAMAN! TURKISH WAR OF INDEPENDENCE (Türkçe altyazı)

Today we are reacting to the Turkish war of Independence I know a bit about this…” In the principles of Ataturk” (In school) This is a reminder for us…or maybe there are things we might have missed in class Or there may be someone that may not know about this Not a Turkish person of course… I don’t pay much attention in History class I might have definitely missed a lot Please like the video, share the video, comment something nice, follow us on Instagram and let’s get into the video Did the Ottoman Empire collapse Or did they separate? That means the Ottoman Empire were not completely Turks The Turks were part of the Ottoman Empire I think the Turks were the major part of the Ottoman Empire Who were the other people? Are the background clips real? So these three countries seized 3 different places in Turkey? With the Armenians? The Armenians and the French army That means Cukurum is a part of Turkey? Ah! Wow! Why?! Why was Turkey the main target at that time? All these countries occupied these different places in Turkey Wait! Did they occupy this place too? That’s a part of Cyprus…The Greek people This is the Northern part of Cyprus Okay so the people became angry when they occupied Izmir, one of the biggest cities in Turkey Turkey was defeated in the first world war? or what? The narrator said something like that Sorry, I have a question, Ataturk is from Izmir, right? Could it be that he got really angry because of Izmir? The British people? How did they have that much power? What’s wrong with them…

They just go to people’s lands and act like they are “god” 07:52 - That’s really bad of them, they did worse in Nigeria Wait, the Italians actually occupied Antalya Okay, so all the traveling he was doing was just to come up with a plan He will have to travel on a horse Oh, so when the army started fighting, then they started occupying the space When they first occupied Izmir, they said it was going to be temporary That’s what they always say Sorry, just a change in commander changed the whole story? so just like a commander changed the whole story What kind of courage did he put in the mind of those people? They taught us that he always says “You must be ready to die, Just as I am ready” There’s a way he said it, but I can’t remember He was different from commanders that will just tell you “Be ready to die” But he will also be ready to die with yoy So you mean there was no increase in the number of armies? No, I think it’s just about the mind no, I’m guessing, of course, they will reinforce after retreating, of course You cannot go back with the same number of soldiers or the same tactic…But I am sure it’s not a big difference in number This time Ankara was the main capital? No Istanbul was the capital before I think because Ankara was the middle, that’s why they were targeting Ankara Are you sure Ankara was not the capital? Why are they saying their territory? I don’t understand did they prepare for a year? This is when they said Ataturk threw the Greek soldiers into the sea They make this joke that Greek people can swim Britain is still there These guys push you, they are not as brave as people think they are They hide behind people They do things with their brains They don’t fight to occupy your land They noticed the Greek soldiers have been defeated so they agreed to a cease-fire They are very smart I have a question, the Italians occupied Antalya? Are there still Italians there? I think there should be Italians there Or at least Mixed Italian-Turkish people There are some Greek people in Izmir, and maybe Edirne…I need to go to Edirne I don’t think there are French people in this part Did you hear the Izmir Marsi at the end? I think we have a bad habit of stopping the video too early Okay, that was educating 5 countries It felt like a movie I like this guy’s narration I am still surprised a change in commander change the story They were losing at some point and everything changed wow, that’s brilliant There is something about Ataturk…He doesn’t just fight with his strength and courage He is very smart Even when he was young and still in school That played a big part in his victory, his tactics I think sometimes, strength is not enough it’s not just about being courageous, courage kills you sometimes You have to retreat and fight back, live to fight another day I am sure many troops have lost battles because of that If you enjoyed this one and you want more, please comment down below We will react to it and learn more and also smash the subscribe button, like the video, comment something nice follow us on Instagram, join the membership platform and till we see next time…peace .
