What Kurdish feudal and religious leaders had not expected was the
rapid secularization measures that Atatürk embarked upon. The most
important was the formal abolition of the caliphate in March 1924.
These measures were a reason for one now legendary Kurdish leader
to join a resistance that had been plotted against the new
government by Kurdish nationalists, who were united in the secret
movement Azadî (Freedom). His name was Shaykh Said. The Azadî
nationalists were caught plotting and were either arrested or
backed out, but Shaykh Said had the support of the people and
decided to rise up without Azadî.
