150 personae non gratae of Turkey


The 150 personae non gratae of Turkey (Turkish: Yüzellilikler, lit. 'Hundred-and-fiftyers') is a list of high-ranking personages of the Ottoman Empire who were exiled from the Republic of Turkey shortly after the end of the Turkish War of Independence in 1923 and the dissolution of the empire.

The list was created on 23 April 1924 by the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, and revised on June 1 1924. By targeting the former Imperial ruling-elite, it reaffirmed the political and cultural break between the empire and the republic. The preliminary list contained 600 individuals.
