Who did the ANZACs fight?

ANZAC comes from "Australian and New Zealand Army Corps", used to describe formations and units comprised of both Australian and New Zealander soldiers. The original ANZAC's were the soldiers who fought the Turks at Gallipoli, from 1915 to 1916. The Australian and New Zealand Army Corps were disbanded in 1916, after the withdrawal from Gallipoli, but other ANZAC formations were formed and fought in both the Middle East and the Western Front. ANZAC formations were also formed during the Vietnam war. Technically, the ANZAC's fought only the Turks and Germans in World War I and the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong forces in Vietnam, but in Australasia, the term "ANZAC" is used to describe Australian and New Zealander forces in general. In this broader sense, ANZAC forces fought Turkey, Germany, Italy, North Korea, People's Republic of China, North Vietnam and Viet Cong (and possibly others e.g. Pathet Lao, Khmer Rouge)


Who was the war between on anzac day?

There was no war on ANZAC Day. ANZAC Day commemorates Australian soldiers in all conflicts, but usually World War I. The main battleground commemorated is Gallipoli, where ANZAC (Australian New Zealand Army Corps) troops were defeated by the Turks but fought bravely despite bad organisation from the higher-ups.


Does the Anzac legend spirit include all members of Australia's population?

The ANZAC legend and spirit is mainly associated with the soldiers of Australia and New Zealand who fought in Gallipoli. However this now extends to the Turks who fought valliantly to protect their homeland from the invaders. It is in effect, a means to commemorate past sacrifices made by men who gave their lives, a means to rally the nation and more sinisterly, a way to glorify war. It is not usually used in reference to the Australian population, and should be a term reserved specifically for the soldiers of Gallipolli.


Why did the ANZACs fight the Turks?

Australian New Zealand Association Corps fought in WW1 because they were part of the British Empire and Commonwealth. Since Britain was at war with the Turks, the Australians and New Zealanders felt the duty to honor their obligation to the Empire. As for the Turks specifically, opposed to say the Austro-Hungarians, Bulgarians, or Germans, that was decided by British Command.
