Yanıt Açıklaması:

The main aim of the parliament in the making of the new constitution was to address the social and political needs for fighting the independence war. The grand assembly enacted a constitution in 1921. The constitution of 1921 was a short constitution including 23 articles but it was an important document. This constitution did not
contain any articles regarding the character of the political system. There was no article regarding the future of the sultanate and the caliphate. However, for the first time the constitution regarded the first general assembly as single political actor that possessed sovereign right in the country. This feature implicitly emphasized the impotent position of the sultan in politics. Therefore, it is fair to say that recognizing the grand assembly as the sole representative of the nation doesn’t reconcile with the idea of a monarchial system.
