MUSTAFA KEMAL ATATÜRK

THE READING / TAPESCRIPT 
Mustafa Kemal Atatürk is the founder of the Republic of Turkey. His 
surname, Ataturk, means “Father of the Turks”. He was born in 1881 
in Salonika, then part of the Ottoman Empire. He had a long and 
active military career before entering politics. He was a visionary and 
revolutionary leader who swiftly modernized Turkey after becoming its 
first president. His legacy is seen throughout Turkish life today. 
When Atatürk was 12, he joined a military school. He later graduated 
from a military academy in Istanbul in 1905. He quickly established his 
military reputation by fighting against the Italians in Libya in 1911, 
and in the Balkan Wars between 1912-1913. He became a hero by 
defending the Dardanelles against the Allies in 1915. Atatürk was 
promoted to general at the age of 35 because of his military skills. 
Atatürk played a key role in the Turkish War of Independence (1919-
1922). He started a nationalist revolution and successfully fought off 
European armies that had carved up and occupied Turkey after WWI. 
In 1921, he established a temporary government in Ankara. Two years 
later, in 1923, Turkey became a secular republic with Atatürk as its 
president. He remained in office until 1938. 
As president, Mustafa Kemal’s reforms secularized schools and 
encouraged education for girls. He also asked women to work to build 
Turkey’s economy. He replaced Islamic courts with secular civil law 
and replaced Arabic script with a Latin-based Turkish alphabet. He also 
promoted a more western style of dressing. Atatürk died on November 
10, 1938, aged 57 years old. He remains a revered figure in Turkey.
