Mustafa Kemal Ataturk sought to westernize Turkey in every manner, He
imposed a wide range of reforms that included emancipation of women,
the Latin alphabet, freedom of religion, education of the masses and even
rules on the type of dress that was acceptable. His rule wasn't gentle, it
was effective.
