Dear Samantha,
When our new king, King Ataturk was our new president he made some changes. One change he made was the alphabet. Another change he made was the hats the men wore. Also he changed the hats the woman wore. If he didn’t change these things they would have kept on going till the 20th century. World War 1 led to serious damages like the breakup of the
Ottoman Empire. I am a citizen of
Turkey and the year is 1938. Our town has many cool things. One thing
Turkey has is candy called Turkish delight.
Turkey has over 4,000 shops. One shop has an item called the evil eye. The evil eye keeps away bad luck to people.
Turkey does not like human or animal creatures in their art. Men used to wear hats called fezzes. Woman used to wear hats called veils. Fezzes are hats that the men in
Turkey used to wear when they were in the prayer tower. Veils are hats that woman in
Turkey used to wear to cover their faces.
Your friend,
Corrine
