AmCham Türkiye’s 200-year history project uncovers the deep-rooted economic, commercial, and cultural ties between Türkiye and the United States, extending far beyond the well‑known post–World War II narrative. The report highlights how early cooperation—from the 1830 Treaty of Commerce and Friendship to American contributions in technology, education, agriculture, and industrial modernization—shaped the foundations of a long‑standing partnership. By documenting archival evidence and milestone collaborations, the study demonstrates that bilateral relations have been consistently built on mutual trust, shared values, and problem‑solving. This comprehensive historical perspective aims to strengthen contemporary economic diplomacy and inspire future business cooperation between the two nations.
