Der Sivas Congress (türkisch Sivas Kongresi) war eine Versammlung der Türkischen Nationalbewegung.[1]

Vom 4. zum 11. September 1919 in der türkischen Stadt Sivas versammelten sich Delegierte der anatolischen Provinzen des osmanischen Reiches[2] nach einem Aufruf von Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.[1] The congress at Sivas took a number of vital decisions which were fundamentally to shape the future policy to be conducted in the frame of the Turkish War of Independence.

Although smaller than the Erzurum Congress (with 38 delegates), the delegates came from a wider geographical area than was the case with the Erzurum Congress.[2] Along with the Erzurum Congress, the Sivas Congress determined the main points of the Misak-ı Millî (National Pact) that the Turkish National Movement made with other Turkish resistance movements against the Allies to work together, namely the imperial government in Constantinople.[3] The two bodies signed the Amasya Protocol the next month on 22 October 1922, calling for new elections after which the Ottoman Chamber of Deputies would consider the agreements of the Sivas Congress.[3] Once word reached the occupying Allies in Constantinople, however, they dissolved the parliament, after which the remaining vestiges of the Ottoman imperial government would become antagonistic against the Turkish National Movement in Ankara.[3]
