Now I want a meeting between Indonesia and Poland. Maybe Monaco too, but their flag is apparently square.

One should go maximal with this, embrace the chaos of a Romania-Chad meeting.

Hello.
You might be thinking of the aggressive reform of the Turkish language that went with the alphabet change. Loanwords from Persian or Arabic were removed and replaced with new words from Turkish roots. The loanwords had been pervasive enough that Ottoman Turkish texts can be very difficult for contemporary Turkish speakers to understand regardless of the difference in scripts.
