Each "article" in this category is in fact a collection of entries about several stamp issuers, presented in alphabetical order. The entries themselves are formulated on the micro model and so provide summary information about all known issuers.

See the Category:Compendium of postage stamp issuers page for details of the project.

Angora (Ankara)

Sited in Anatolia, Angora (now Ankara) is the present capital city of Turkey. The European part of Turkey, including the then capital of Constantinople, was under Allied occupation 1918–1923 following the defeat of Turkey in World War I. A provisional nationalist government was established by Kemal Atatürk at Angora, which he declared to be the new capital.

Having expelled the Greek invaders of Asia Minor (1921–1922) and averted a war with Britain (1923), Atatürk was able to proclaim the new republic of Turkey on 28 October 1923 with himself as president. Ankara was confirmed as the capital despite the reinstatement of Constantinople (now Istanbul) as Turkish territory.

During the period of the provisional government (1920–1923), various overprints were issued at Angora. In 1922, two sets of definitives were issued (cat. nos A79-A90 and A119-A124). These were replaced by the general Turkish issue (cat. nos 974-1012) of November 1923.

The most northerly of the Leeward Islands, Anguilla was first colonised by English settlers in 1650. During Britain's wars with France in the 18th century, it was attacked twice by French forces (1745 and 1796) but they were repelled on both occasions. Anguilla was administered as part of the St Kitts-Nevis group but this was strongly resisted and Britain had to quell an independence movement in 1967. Anguilla finally became a separate entity on 19 December 1980, though it remains a British dependency.
