Second Group (Turkey)
Second Group ( tr, İkinci Grup) was a short-term opposition in Turkish parliament in the 1922-23 term. Background During the Turkish War of Independence, Mustafa Kemal Pasha (Atatürk) had the support of Turkish nationalists, though they were not a politically coherent group. Among them there were soldiers, civilian intellectuals, local land owners, and religious leaders. Towards the end of the war, the difference in political views became apparent. In particular, the future of post-war Turkey was a big question. One important issue was the political status of Atatürk, who was just promoted to the commander in chief of the military forces just before the Battle of Sakarya on 5 August 1921. Atatürk was authorised to exercise the power of the parliament. The group The group was founded on 22 July 1922 during the discussion about the renewal of Atatürk's authorisation.

Turkish War Of Independence
The Turkish War of Independence "War of Liberation", also known figuratively as ''İstiklâl Harbi'' "Independence War" or ''Millî Mücadele'' "National Struggle" (19 May 1919 – 24 July 1923) was a series of military campaigns waged by the Turkish National Movement after parts of the Ottoman Empire were occupied and partitioned following its defeat in World War I.

The ethnic demographics of the modern Turkish Republic were significantly impacted by the earlier Armenian genocide and the deportations of Greek-speaking, Orthodox Christian Rum people.
