Republican National Party ((トルコ語:Cumhuriyetçi Millet Partisi, CMP)) was a former Turkish political party. The party was founded by the members of Nation Party which closed by the court on 27 January 1954. Osman Bölükbaşı with the former members of the National Party founded Republican National Party on 10 February 1954 just two weeks after the closure of the former party.〔Türkiye’nin 75 Yılı, Tempo Yayınları, İstanbul, 1998〕 Bölükbaşı became the chairman of the party. Even under this unfavorable conditions, in the elections held on 2 May 1954, Republican National Party won 5 seats by the rhetoric and campaigning efforts of Bölükbaşı.〔 On 30 May of the same year Democrat Party government abolished Kırşehir Province, Bölükbaşı’s electoral province. Prime Minister Adnan Menderes explained the reason of statue change as the abnormality of voters' decision in Kırşehir Province in which the percentage of CMP votes was much higher than that of Turkey in general.〔Altan Öymen:''Öfkeli Yıllar'', Doğan Kitap, İstanbul, 2009, ISBN 978-605-111-401-9 p.500〕 (Kırşehir regained its former status on 1 July 1957). Nevertheless Bölükbaşı made a name as an outstanding political opponent of the Democrat Party government with his small party. On 2 July 1957 (just after Kırşehir gained its former status) Bölükbaşı was arrested by the accusation of insulting the parliament. Thus he couldn’t campaign for he 1957 elections. However his party increased its votes and Bölükbaşı kept his seat in the elections held on 27 October 1957. One month after the elections he was acquitted. On 17 October 1958 Republican Nation party was merged with another Party and was named as Republican Peasants' Nation Party. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Republican Nation Party」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
