🇹🇷📆📝 — Viral video on Turkish social media shows a TV broadcast from an alternate reality where the Ottoman Empire in its full might lost its war of independence in 1920s and got partitioned under the Treaty of Sevres
The footage celebrates national surrender day on October 30, 2018
🇬🇷 Greece would get its Megali territories
🇺🇳 The Straits of Constantinople would become an International Zone under United Nations
🇫🇷 France would gain control over Alexandretta and much of old Cilicia
🇬🇧 UK would gain control over the Anatolian Kurdistan and Assyria
🇮🇹 Italy would retain its territories in Southwestern Anatolia
🇦🇲 Armenia would gain Western Armenia
🇹🇷 And Turkey, as consequence would be relegated to the Central Anatolian areas, but still under the Caliphate
🤔 Such video lately was shared as a renewed debate between Kemalists and Neo-Ottomanists on X, as Turkish netizens debate extensively about the consequences of Kemal’s rule over Turkey after World War I, with Neo-Ottomanists saying that Kemal’s abolishment of the Caliphate was intrisically bad and “an act of Shirk”, while Kemalists arguing that was not for him, “Turkey would be a British Colony” by now
🇹🇷 Under the replies of such, as expected, thousands of Turkish netizens were relieved that Turkish Nationalists under Mustafa Kemal Ataturk won the war of independence of Turkey, while radical sunnis and Neo-Ottomanists calling Kemal a Traitor to the Caliphate and a kaffir for pushing secularism in Turkey
