Packet 1: Tossup 9

Some military monuments erroneously credit this leader with a quote about “Johnnies” who “have become our (15[1])sons” (15[1])after losing their lives. (15[1])Under this leader, the “Hearths” promoted a (15[1])pseudoscientific “history thesis” regarding his people’s supposed origins around a massive inner sea. School curricula (15[1]-5[1])quickly adopted a historiographical (-5[2])speech delivered by this leader over 6 days called the (15[1]-5[1])Nutuk (15[4])(“Noo-TOOK”). Under this (15[1])leader, (15[2])the TLA (15[1])supported theories that all (*) languages descend from the ancestral (10[4])“Sun (10[2])Language” (10[2])and removed loanwords from Arabic and (10[1])Persian. (10[2])Some nationalist historians in one country deny that this (10[1])founding leader of the CHP (10[1])continued anti-Christian violence committed by the Committee for Union and Progress. For 10 points, what first post-Ottoman (10[1])president moved his capital to Ankara? (10[1])■END■ (10[3])

ANSWER: Mustafa Kemal Atatürk [or Mustafa Kemal Pasha or Ghazi Mustafa Kemal]
