New Turan

"Yes, I want this so that we don't become a tribe, but a fairy tale people whose reputation has been forgotten. What are you afraid of? Suppose decentralization were to disperse to some extent, wouldn't it be better than dispersing this by already giving away a large portion of Turkish blood, activity and life? Be sure that this will not happen; even if its own parliament, country and government are bad, it will certainly prefer to govern itself - Arab, Kurd, Armenian etc. - to being a morsel, a second-degree subject of other names and nations."

Yeni Turan, written with a bit of "desperation" during a critical period when the collapse of the Ottoman State could be felt intensely, presents a thought-provoking and eclectic future projection in many ways. The ideology it adopts as the basis for the dream of a rich and powerful Turkey is a variant of Turkism, which is still in its infancy.
