Question 19 • 26-27 - C - RUSD World History, Culture and Geography

What was one reform that helped transform Turkey in the 1920s?

Answer
A
Islamic laws and traditions were strictly upheld.
B
Oil deals were made with Western nations.
C
The Arab League helped strengthen relations.
D
The nation granted women the right to vote.

Explanation

Atatürk’s reforms modernized Turkey and expanded women’s political rights. Women gained the right to vote in local elections in 1930 and in national elections in 1934, so this reform is associated with Turkey’s transformation, though it happened just after the 1920s. The Arab League, oil deals, and strict enforcement of Islamic traditions do not describe these reforms.
