The Turkish War of Independence (1919-1923) was a conflict fought primarily between the Turkish nationalist forces and the Allied powers, particularly Greece, Armenia, and France, following World War I. Led by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the nationalist movement aimed to resist the partitioning of the Ottoman Empire and establish a sovereign Turkish state. The war culminated in the establishment of the Republic of Turkey in 1923, marking the end of the Ottoman Empire and the beginning of modern Turkish governance. The conflict was characterized by significant military engagements and the mobilization of various ethnic groups within the region.
