%X Founder of Turkish Republic Mustafa Kemal launched the National Struggle in Anatolia starting with the concept of national state. Mustafa Kemal, who stated in every occasion that he took his power and determination from the common sense of the Turkish Nation, turned to nationwide tours not only in the years of National Struggle but also after the declaration of the Republic. Mustafa Kemal continued his nationwide tours and went even to the remote villages along with cities and districts with the victory of National struggle and founding of Turkish Republic.
