Happy Republic Day, Turkey!
The present Doodle respects Turkey’s Republic Day, one of the country’s most significant occasions. On this day in 1923, the Turkish parliament (called the Grand National Assembly) corrected its constitution to set up the Republic of Turkey.
Portrayed in the Doodle fine art is Turkey’s notorious First Grand National Assembly of Turkey Building, which housed the parliament from 1920 and 1924 and filled in as the site of the country’s notable presentation of autonomy. Situated in Turkey’s capital city of Ankara, the structure was developed in a customary Turkish building style including the noticeable utilization of Ankara stone, or andesite.
Since its masterful beginnings, the landmark has been repurposed on different occasions, and today remembers Turkey’s set of experiences as the War of Independence Museum (Kurtuluş Savaşı Müzesi).
