What is Valley of the Wolves (VoWA) Ambush

Maintaining International Relations Through Digital Public Diplomacy Policies and Discourses
VoWA is the continuation of the VoW series. In the series, unlike the VoW series, the struggle between the state and global powers is described entirely from a Neo-Ottomanist perspective. The series, which includes representations and discourses that legitimize the state's foreign policy, is about Turkey's adventure of becoming a great power again in the face of global powers.

Abstract
In addition to what the studies on the discourse and character modeling of the Valley of the Wolves series say, this chapter argues that there has been a Neo-Ottomanization and religiosity evolution in terms of the discourse and the hero's semiosis. The thesis of this section is that Valley of the Wolves series has evolved in terms of narrative and character since it began to appeal to international target audiences. It is the main assumption of the section that there is a parallel transformation with the public diplomacy practices of the Republic of Türkiye in the process following the fact that the audience groups, especially in Arab geography, Afghanistan and Pakistan, where Islamic influence is dominant, become fans of the Valley of the Wolves. In this section, it is aimed to explain the velvet evolution, which exemplifies the transition from the Republican ideology to the Neo-Ottoman ideology in diplomatic media narratives, through the historical rupture of the Valley of the Wolves.
