Citizen can be defined as person living together in a society, and citizenship can be defined as a legal and political connection between the state and person. The concept of citizenship has been defined in all constitutions since the Ottoman basic law. The concept of citizen or patriot was born in Europe and spread to the world. The concept of citizen in modern sense emerged with American and French revolutions. The concept of citizenship also includes the ideas of status and role. Citizenship is based on the idea that people are equal and they are treated equally in legal and political sense. For this reason, it forms the basis of the conception of democracy. The idea of raising modern citizen began with the second constitutional monarchy in Turkey. The science of history was utilized in the first years of the republic to raise the consciousness of nation, Turkishness, and citizenship. Ataturk defines the people living withing the borders of the republic he founded as Turkish or Turkish nation even if they come from different ethnic identities. According to Ataturk, the Turkish society founding the Republic of Turkey is called Turkish nation. According to Ataturk, Turkishness will exist forever in Anatolia.

Everyone accepting the identity of Turkish Republic Citizen was taken under constitutional guarentee and accepted as equal citizens regardless of his ethnic origin and religion.
