This moment is widely regarded as the starting point of the Turkish national struggle against the Allied occupation following the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in World War I. \nAtatürk's mission was to organize resistance movements and lay the foundations for a new\, independent Turkish state. This led to the War of Independence (1919–1923)\, and eventually to the establishment of the Republic of Turkey in 1923. \nThe first official celebration of May 19 took place in 1926 in Samsun\, under the name "Gazi Day" in reference to Atatürk. \nIn 1938\, just before his death\, Atatürk officially dedicated May 19 as Youth and Sports Day to encourage the physical and moral development of young people. \nAfter his passing\, the name of the holiday was expanded to "Commemoration of Atatürk\, Youth and Sports Day"\, combining the national remembrance with a celebration of youth and vitality.
