Firstly, it is important to know that new Turkish Republic had just got out of a war. As a result of the war, the natural sources were damaged or nearly about to run out of materials. But this fact didn’t stop Mustafa Kemal. Our leader made a planning in order to develop new Turkish Republic.
Agriculture was the major economic activity in that era, but the methods were primitive. That’s why it should have been modernized. Also, the farmers and villagers should have been trained in order to get a good result. New agriculture engineers were educated according to the necessities of modern agriculture. The factories that were based on agriculture were built in Anatolia. The main goal was to become self- sufficient. Then the export could be done to the world. Village Institutes trained villagers due to produce more efficiency in economy and in culture. Industrial factories were established. Railways became the main transportation mode. It was aimed to increase the production. Five-year development plans were based on economical independency.
Economic development should have been supported by cultural and social revolutions.
All of the moves were based on full independency.
Always Ataturk…
