But meeting stiff Turkish resistance, led by the future founding father of Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, it ultimately resulted in a costly stalemate and with heavy casualties for the Allies. However, the campaign also fostered national identities in Australia and New Zealand, marking a pivotal moment in their histories and establishing April 25 as ANZAC Day as a world-wide day of remembrance for their military sacrifices.
