Determined that Turkey's future lay with the West and that modernization was its priority, Ataturk shut down religious schools, abolished the caliphate - Islam's equivalent to the papacy - changed the country's alphabet from Arabic to Roman script and enshrined the separation of mosque and state as a founding principle...
