Özet

Geçmişte Türk milleti, çeşitli coğrafi bölgelerde ve tarihlerde devletler, imparatorluklar kurmuştur. Bu devrelerde Türk medeniyetine de eserler bırakmıştır. Ancak ilk defa 29 Ekim 1923'te kurulan devlet "Türkiye Cumhuriyeti" adını almıştır.

Abstract

When the Greek army failed to capture Eskishehir and had to beat a retreat before the defences of İnönü in early January 1921, armed conflict gave its way to diplomacy for a while. The initiative came from the Allies, who having met in Paris on 25 January, adopted the suggestion of Count Sforza, the Italian Foreign Minister. Accordingly a conference was called in London between the Allies and the representatives of Greek and Turkish (Istanbul and Ankara) governments. The invitation underlined that the basis of talks should be the Treaty of Sevres, but subject to modifications as might have been necessitated by the passage of events.
