Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Ataturk made Turkey a secular state?

Yes. Peer-reviewed scholarship states that Ataturk's reforms, starting in 1924 and culminating in the 1937 laicist constitution, made Turkey a secular state. Other reference sources corroborate the republic's secular character and Ataturk's association with secularism.
