The History Of The Commemoration of Atatürk, Youth And Sports Day
On May 19, 1919, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk arrived in the Black Sea port of Samsun. Once he arrived, he began a popular uprising against the decision of WWI allies to divide up the territories of the defeated Ottoman Empire. This is seen by many as the starting date of the Turkish War of Independence.
In 1936, when Atatürk realized that many people didn’t remember the date or time that he landed in Samsun he decided to create a festival that will celebrate the event. This festival began the following year. In 1938, a law was passed that made May 19th the official public holiday known as the Festival of Youth & Sports. It’s been celebrated as a holiday ever since.
