General Congregation of the Anatolian Turkish Orthodox information
The General Congregation of the Anatolian Turkish Orthodox (in Turkish Umum Anadolu Türk Ortodoksları Cemaatleri) was a pro-Turkish nationalist Orthodox Christian group set up in 1922 and mainly active in the Turkish-speaking, Eastern Orthodox Christian Karamanlides population of central Anatolia.[1] Unlike most Greek Orthodox Christians, they identified themselves as Turkish rather than Greek and supported Kemal Atatürk.[2]
At the time, it had support from the Orthodox Bishop of Havza, as well as numerous other congregations.[3]
