Inequalities Within The Ottoman Empire

One of the most important events of the history was European expansion into the new world. Traditional Feudal societies collapsed under the weight of demographic and political changes during Eurasia experienced Mongol expansion and Black death. There was sociopolitical and religious conflict between states and reconsideration of traditional knowledge and institution. The social and intellectual revolutions in Europe can be considered provocative and subversive. Revolutions in the European society encouraged each other incrementally rather than remaining isolated and produced systematic and lasting changes in the European society.

The ottoman empire originated in the late 12th century near the city of Constantinople by Turkish natives who began to build an empire after their leader, Osman. The Ottoman Empire was run by a small ruling class with the sultan in the highest position. Interestingly, the Ottomans allowed their subjects to live under the laws of their own separate religions. The Ottoman Empire put a strong focus on industrialization. They focused on developing many cities into commercial and industrial centers.

Around 1652 the Dutch East India Company wanted to monopolize the meat industry by settling down in the south shores of Table Bay. This was in fact a brilliant idea, because this allowed to keep the prices for meat at a reduced level. While also being able to be a harbor for ships and also supplying the men with medicine and food. This settlement was even protected by attacks by enemies that wanted to inflict harm on the harbor.

In the 1900's at the twilight of a fresh new century in the 700th year of its presence the Ottoman E, moire started to die a brutal, climatic death. The team that damaged this elder and once powerful state launched the Middle East, Europe, and the world, but this enhanced instability and chaos. The Ottoman Empire was one of the most triumphant empire in the Middle East until WW1, thats where it all began. During WW1 the Ottoman Empire took the side of the Central Powers, and they were against the Allied Powers. As the war went on the Central Powers were losing and continued to lose. So the war ends and the ryAllied Powers came out with the victory, and this leads to the Ottoman Empire being weakened strongly. However, after WW1 Britain and France went on to dividing the Empire,

The Ottoman society, which was of Turkish origin was a small state founded in the 13th Century by Osman I. It was run and overseen by his descendants up until 1923 during the end of WW I when it was dissolved and declared part of The Republic of Turkey. The Ottoman society was well structured and complicated. The uppermost influence in the land was the Sultan, whose hierarchical place was determined by birth; new Sultans were selected from the sons of the preceding Sultans. The Sultan, however, was not the ultimate decision maker. He delegated both his executive and political authority. The elders of the tribe came together to form a council of ministers and advisors known as Divan (later known as Porte). The aftermath of the Young Turk

The Ottoman Empire was one of the largest and strongest Turkish Muslim empires in the world, with its capitol Constantinople it led the trade in the eastern and western world. Constantinople had total control of the Silk Road due to location, being in the middle of the black and Mediterranean Sea gave Constantinople total control of the trade market. Leading for more than 600 years (Modern World History, chap. 5, sect. 2) the Ottoman Empire served as a unification between different and separated parts of the Islamic world. The Ottoman Empire rose to power mainly due to Mongols destroying their Islamic dynasty known as the Seljuk Turks, this in turn caused the Ottoman Turks to regain their strength and regroup. Military leaders also played an important role in the development of the empire.

At the beginning of 19th century, the Ottoman Empire experienced a series of events that demonstrated the need for major reform efforts. Revolts were taking place in Serbia that were increasingly concerned about separating from Ottoman rule. Territory in the Balkans and in parts of modern day Turkey and Bulgaria had been ceded to Russia. In Egypt, the power vacuum left behind by the French had yet to be filled. Europe was increasingly intervened in Ottoman and Egyptian conflicts due to the fear that disintegration.

The Ottomans were a very strong/forceful empire that covered a vast area. They’re one of the greatest civilizations of the modern period. The Ottoman empire was also the most influential of the Muslim empires of the modern period. Their glory in the sixteenth century represents one of the heights of human creativity, idealism, and art. Their culture and military expansion extended over into Europe, and The Ottoman Empire grew to it’s height of power.

War is a complex, never-ending struggle that generates everlasting effects on society. War changes people and their states, whether they are strengthened or demolished. World War takes on a whole new meaning, as multiple nations engage and combat against each other, resulting in amplified effects. The Middle East was affected by the magnitude of WWI in numerous ways, ultimately setting the foundation for how the modern Middle East developed. The aftermath of WWI led to the eradication of the Ottoman and Qajar Empires into contemporary middle eastern states, the transformation of the demography of the Middle East, the rise of ethno-nationalist movements, the emergence of the Palestine-Israeli conflict, the evolution of Persia into Iran, and

In the 19th century when WW1 ended with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. It left many long term causes some of them being the Ottoman Empire, Germany, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire all fell. But due to their falling it lead to new colonies being made in their place by the people. The leading cause to all the demolition after ww1 and ww1 are Militarism and military plans, Alliance system, Imperialism, Mass Politics, Intellectual Context, and Nationalism. These were the MAJOR leading causes of WW1 and its destruction. All sides used militarism and used there militaries to attack there enemies causing war to happen. The Alliance system was when the leaders wanted to make treaties

The Ottoman Empire was one of the longest enduring territories ever. One of the purposes behind its life span was, to some degree, that it endured the presence of different confidence groups. As being what is indicated, ten million Turks had the capacity standard more than 250 million individuals on three continents. The Ottomans governed their subjects through the Millet community structure; every group had its own particular independent courts and could enact as indicated by its own particular religious laws. They additionally accepted different religious qualities.

After the war the people in Europe suffer from the national ID determination problem, and that because the result of the war, many countries asked about their independent. Also the middle East and the Arab countries suffer from the same problem, because they were under the role of the Othman Empire, and after the Axis power lost in the war , the Othman Empire can't do the same role in the Arab countries. While the image of the Othman Empire in the Arab world take the colonial shape, because of that the Arab countries take it a chance to rise up against the Othman Empire. This demands in the world create a chaos. While the victors in the war saw this chaos a big chance for them to put these country under the concept of mandate. In order to develop

The Ottoman Turks emerged on the periphery of the Byzantine Empire and the Saljuk Turks. Under a Turkish Muslim warrior named Osman, raids were conducted in western Anatolia on Byzantine settlements and a vast number of Turks were united under his banner. Those Turks who flocked to Osman's banner and followed him into the history books came to be called the Ottomans. The word Ottoman, fits these Turks well as it roughly translates from Turkish as "those associated with Oman."

Although the situation and discourse in the Ottoman Empire (which would become Turkey) were different than what occurred in the American context, there are parallels between the two. In Turkey, the fear of a declining population was also a determining factor that led to the encouragement of woman to procreate and resulted in damnation of the practice of abortion. After the Russo-Ottoman War of 1877-78 there was widespread fear throughout the empire of a supposed decline in the Muslim population, and in 1890 Abdulhamid II instructed his officials to release a treatise that addressed the abortion issue and described it as being a hazard to Islamic and Ottoman society as a whole (Demirci 2008). The Muslim population was especially important

But by 1920, neither that state nor its Islamic institutions held prominence in the Middle East, and its former Arab and Turkish subjects faded into obscurity. In its final century the Ottoman system underwent considerable transformation. The reform movement strengthened the administrative efficiency and the military capability of the empire, but at the same time the reforms were bound to undermine the foundations on which the Ottoman order rested. Despite the administrative changes and the spread of nationalist revolts in the Balkans, the Arab subjects of the empire neither wanted, nor anticipated, its collapse and replacement by a regional Arab state system. The doctrine of Arabism surfaced before the war, but it was not so much a program for political independence so much as a demand for Arab autonomy within an Ottoman framework. Thus, at the outbreak of the war, Ottomanism remained the dominant ideology in the Arabic-speaking provinces. And despite all the attention that Sharif Husayn’s revolt later received, they did not detach the majority of Arabs from their Ottoman loyalties during the war years. But by the end of the war in 1918, Ottomanism was irrelevant. The French occupation of Damascus and the creation of regional states, compelled the Arab elites to focus their attention on developments in their own new states. Arabs that had been formerly occupants of Ottoman provinces, now had to create new identities as Iraqis, Syrians, Palestinians, etc. One element in the post-Ottoman Middle East did remain constant, the individuals who rose to political prominence in the new states were mainly those who had held positions of power and or influence within the Ottoman system, whether they were local notables or prior Ottoman civil servants and
