The exhibition includes important events that shaped Türkiye's historical periods, such as founding leader Mustafa Kemal Atatürk's speech on the proclamation of the republic, Adnan Menderes as the first elected prime minister, and the election of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan as prime minister.

In the exhibition, the story of the first century of the republic is told through areas such as economics, exhibitions, arts, science and sports, while artificial intelligence technology is used to envision the future by looking back to the past.

The exhibition includes sections titled "Words, Memories, Most Important Moments and Faces." Concepts such as global and regional leadership with AI, smart cities, technology, defense industry, domestic and national, sustainability, and technoparks depict the second century of a strong Türkiye.
