OUR PEOPLE OF LEGEND

INSTRUCTIONS:
The students from team A will give a research topic about famous people who have gone down in the history of their country to team B and vice versa. Students write an article about People od Legend from their partner's country and upload the article to the Book Creator book. The article should answer these questions:
Who is the personality?
What did he/she do that was important to his/her country?
Why is he/she a man/women of legend?
In 25 February we will all play a Kahoot game through which to interactively evaluate the knowledge gained by students from each other.

MUSTAFA KEMAL ATATURK

was a Turkish field marshal and statesman who became the first President of Turkey from 1923 until his death in 1938.
He is the most beloved personality of the Turks, a politician known and loved all over the world!
He is known for being a leader who freed his people from being controlled by other countries and later for starting changes that founded Turkish nation state based on social and economic nationalism, more modern and similar to Western civilization, mainly France (such as the French model of secularism called laïcité).
Atatürk was born under the name Mustafa in 1881. His birth place was in Salonika, Macedonia (now Thessaloniki, Greece). Salonika was part of the Ottoman Empire at that time. He took the name Kemal as a schoolboy and Atatürk (which means Father of the Turks) when he was president. His father's name was Ali Rıza Efendi. His mother's name was Zübeyde Hanım. He also had a sister whose name was Makbule (Atadan). He became an army officer and the most successful general officer of the empire in World War I, fighting in Gallipoli.

When the Ottoman Empire was ended after the war, Atatürk organized a nationalist movement that created the new, secular, Republic of Turkey. This meant that the country's government was no longer led by hereditary or religious leaders. Visitors to Turkey are often surprised by the importance given to Atatürk in present-day Turkey.
Few countries have such a person in their history. He was a successful military commander, and later established a democratic constitution and put in place changes that set Turkey on the road to becoming a new and developing nation. He inspired many later leaders like Habib Bourguiba, Gamal Abdel Nasser, Sukarno, and Muhammad Ali Jinnah.
His six principles still serve today as a sign post for establishing a democratic government:
Republicanism: Replacing the hereditary monarchy with an elected parliament.
Nationalism: Citizens working together with pride in a common interest.
Laicism: Separating religion from government. It is the guarantee of freedom of religion and conscience in society.
Populism: The equality of all citizens before the law.
Etatism: An economic system combining private enterprise with government-funded monopolies of large industries
Revolutionism: The basis of the other 5 principles. According to the needs of the society, innovations required by the age and science are made as soon as possible.
