National Sovereignty and Children's Day is a public holiday in Turkey commemorating the foundation of the Turkish Grand National Assembly on April 23, 1920. This year, it is the parliament's 100th anniversary.

The celebrations focus on children because Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the founder of the Republic of Turkey, emphasized that children are the nation's future.

The assembly met for the first time in 1920 in Ankara, then the country's future capital, during the War of Independence to lay the foundations for an independent, secular, and modern republic.

This year's public celebrations have been suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic. -
