Homeland Party (Turkey, 2021)
The Homeland Party () is a political party in Turkey that was founded on 17 May 2021 by Muharrem İnce, the former candidate of the Republican People's Party (CHP) in the 2018 Turkish presidential election. The party originated as a social movement (''Homeland Movement'') in September 2020, two years after the election. It split from the CHP after İnce failed to unseat serving CHP leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu from his position. İnce was also encouraged to establish a party during his Homeland Movement campaign. The party is largely seen as a protest movement against the established CHP leadership, which had refused to resign despite consecutive election losses and has been accused by İnce of straying from the CHP's core Kemalist values. One of the party's slogans is "Neither from the right nor from the left, but in the way of Atatürk".

As a reaction to the rise of a reformist, but staunchly conservative AKP in 2000s, Ulusalists came up with numerous conspiracy theories.
