Document Summary
I chose the battle of sakarya, in august/september 1921, which to turkey (in the war of. Turkish independence) is like the battle of yorktown was for america in the american revolution. But this cannot be the origin of the star & crescent symbol (as the turkish national symbol or as the symbol of islam) because the symbol was already widely used in both. Turkish and islamic contexts for centuries before the battle of sakarya. D. slightly warmer in both hemispheres around january. This is the question asked and answered in class. But there is another mechanism (much smaller in magnitude) that is still at work, for the earth would still have its elliptical orbit. With this elliptical orbit, the earth gets (slightly) closer to the sun in early january and (slightly) farther from the sun in early july. We know from the planet-temperature equation, that getting closer to the sun will make for a bit warmer temperatures worldwide.
