Abstract: The Republic of Türkiye commemorates the centenary of the Lausanne Peace Treaty, signed on July 24, 1923. This pivotal treaty formed the bedrock for the establishment of the Republic. Historically significant, the treaty underscored the prowess of the Nationalist Movement, led by Mustafa Kemal, to nullify the previously imposed Treaty of Sevres and forge a new accord with the Allies on favorable terms. The Lausanne Treaty signified the transformation of Turkey from a collapsed empire to an independent, sovereign state, securing its recognition among sovereign nations. Atatürk, in his iconic "Nutuk", hailed the treaty as a triumphant rebuttal to long-standing conspiracies against the Turkish nation. This accomplishment was a product of a protracted campaign that began with the 1919 Declaration of Amasya, emphasizing Turkey's sovereignty and independence. Despite a century since its ratification, the Lausanne Peace Treaty's importance resonates, given the contemporary challenges and regional tensions it continues to address.
