Turkey’s two-hundred-year modernization process can be summarized with the concepts of reforms (tanzimat), constitutional monarchy (meşrutiyet) and republic; the notions which refer to a history of building a sociopolitical order for the country’s goals towards power and prosperity.

Losing power and land while confronted with a positioning as “having a grasp of the zeitgeist and comprehending the happenings”, media has been considered as an important factor in the country’s struggle to prevent loses and establish a new regime, as it is associated with the concepts such as knowledge, socialization of knowledge, education, thought, expressing thoughts, news, intellectuals, public opinion, democratic progress and development.

Military has been one of the most invested institutions in order to prevent power and land losses. Established after the abolition of traditional Ottoman military and being one of the important actors of modernization process, modern military paved the way for the formation of a coup tradition in Turkey with the interventions it made forcefully in the political system: Dethronements of Sultan Abdülaziz in 1876 and Sultan Abdühamit II in 1909, raid on the Sublime Porte in 1913, May 27 Coup, March 12 Memorandum, September 12 Coup, February 28 Post-Modern Coup and July 15 Coup Attempt.
