My hometown.

Re: My hometown.

I was born in Ardahan, a province in the most north eastern part of Türkiye. (Eastern Anatolia). I don't know if you people ever noticed but there's a natural and astonishing event that takes place each year during summer (june-july). A silhouette / shadow which resembles Atatürk appears on the plains during that period and that event / phenomenon is celebrated as a festival called "Atatürk'ün izinde-gölgesinde Damal şenlikleri".
Here are some pictures:

So you are only about 10 years old? No adult could have been born in "Ardahan province", since it did not exist until the 1990s when it was separated from Kars province.

I didn't say I was born in Ardahan province, I said I was born in Ardahan, WHICH is a province today, etc.

Don't worry, I'm just needling you.

Though actually you did say, even though it may not have been what you meant.

I am interested to know what you, as someone from Ardahan, believe were the reasons for Ardahan's separation from Kars province?
