Milliy Firqa

Milliy Firqa (Crimean Tatar: Milliy Fırqa, ملی فرقا - National Party, Cyrillic: Милли фирка) was a Muslim political group in Crimea, which transferred en masse to the Bolsheviks during the Russian Civil War.[3] Noman Çelebicihan, Asan Sabri Ayvazov, and Cafer Seydamet Qırımer established the group in 1917. At the time, they eventually seized control of the state in an attempt to foster a Crimean Tatar identity.[4] Soviet authorities banned the party in 1921.

Not to be confused with the modern organization with the same name, Milliy Fırqa (NGO), founded in 2006.
