And of course the Tzarist regime carries much blame because it was so inadequate it got into WW1 for some stupid reason and could not recognize the threat from within. Suffice to say that the person who was in power, tzar himself could not protect his own family from being killed. Least he could do is send them to another country.

We were fighting against thousands of Arabs as we were also fighting against UK to defend our lands in Middle East.. its not a lie, thats how UK won in Middle East. Still we stopped their advance at Qut-ul Amare, we didn't let them invade Istanbul by winning Battle Of Gallipoli, which was one of the most bloodiest battle in WW1, its also known as being one of the battle which ''melee fight'' was heavily involved, altough Brits had higher technology compared to us, nor their technology and their body strenght saved them from being crushed, our technology wasn't big as their so we kicked them out with our arm's strenght so we actually blocked UK to reach their causes. However when our allies lost the war, we also lost it since we weren't able to fight against almost all of the world by ourselves lmao.
      And ANZACS were just puppets tho, they got humiliated at Battle Of Gallipoli.. still they should be thankful to us cause of having that Battle against us. Cause after Gallipoli, Australians relaized they were used by UK and they should stand as a one nation, not as slave for UK.

One of my countrymen can put a light better to this topic but afaik, the talks in Lausanne were faltered at a point and Turks started to get ready for the war again. After that, the allies stepped back and accepted the terms.

    • @obabas80
      @obabas80 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Wrong. The main reason it was GIVEN to the Turks was because of Russian/British/French distrust of each other. Particularly France and Britain did not want Russia to take it or have influence in the Mediterranean and the Russians felt the same about the westerners. Having one side gain influence in the bosphorous would have meant war amongst each other and so they decided to agree to let the Turks have it and keep it "neutral".
      Make no mistake, if either Russia or the west wanted to occupy it, possibly given it to Greece and control it through Greece or outright annex it at the time, they could have. But it wasn't as important anymore since the discovery of other routes and the Americas and wasn't worth the effort or going to war over. But Russia especially could have taken it easily but that would have meant more war with the west.

      I wouldnt call it a "great" legacy for human civilization. The Ottoman Empire focused mainly on war and the taxation of the people it occupied. Do you know what that Empire built in the places it conquered? Mosques and prisons. Thats it. Maybe a few hamams (Turkish public baths) here and there too but mainly Mosques and prisons. And from those Mosques, many of them were just converted Churches. The food is good though, although its not certain which ones were really theirs and which were just adopted from local cuisines like Arabic, Byzantine, Persian etc.

    Their fate was sealed long before the Balkan Wars with the ideas of the ''nation-state'' that were promoted during the French Revolution. The Ottoman Empire was a religious state. That meant that all Muslims had the same rights no matter where they were from. Thus if you were a Christian, even if you were an ethnically Turk Christian, you still had less rights than all the Muslims, no matter if they were ethnically Turks or not.
    The ideas of the nation-state spread primarily in the Balkans were Christians were the majority. All these countries became independent in the 19th century. The Arabs and the other Muslims had fewer reasons to rebel since they had the same rights as the Turks and other Muslims.
    When Germany unified and took the role of Russia as the major threat to the Great Powers of Europe, the Ottoman Empire lost all of it's use for the British. The only reason that this empire was actually allowed to exists until 1922 was to contain the Russian expansionism in the Mediterranean. From the moment Russia became a secondary threat, the future of the Ottomans was sealed.

Yet he turned out to be one of the worst sultans. So there is no guarantee that Mustafa’s descendants would’ve have been just as good as Mustafa. Some great sultans came in history and were the descendants of Selim the second so maybe the empire wouldn’t have lasted as long as it had if Mustafa had become sultan.

    Good and brief video, nevertheless there is ONE BIG MAJOR MISUNDERSTANDING: Mustafa Kemal Atatürk's war was NOT the "War of Independence"! Turkey was never a colony or under the rule of any foreign power. It was the WAR OF LIBERATION from allied occupation. So Ataturk liberated the state of Turkey from an illegitimate foreign occupation. Thats why the correct terminology must be Liberation over Independence. I suggest contacting to Turkish academics or reading some informative articles before proceeding to create such good video. Good content nevertheless.

      @Ghost Ghost He formed the Grand National Assembly and thus a functional government. He founded new Turkish Army and formed a General Staff and thus allowed a organised force to fight and liberate Turkey. He successfully commanded decisive battles such as Dumlupinar and won the war.
      He was opposed to the Young Turks and a long enemy of Enver Pasha and the CUP. He called them murderous cruel idiots in 1926.
      He was responsible for the Ottoman State dissolving, but the Ottomans were a sick disgusting dead empire that willingly surrendered to the Allies. He replaced it with a free, democratic and fair republic.
      Kressenstein, Falkenhayn and Cemal Pasha lost in the Syrian Front. Kemal came and won at the Battle of Aleppo successfully halting British Advances.

    The 3 pashas executed the genocide of 1.5 million Armenians in 1915 after the hamidian massacres in some 20 years earlier. Turkey refusing to sign treaty of sevres also denied the Republic of Armenia of its rightful territory.

      While the Ottomans were fighting with Russia, they realized that there were Armenians in the Russian army. The Armenians took arms and money from the Russians and wrote a letter to Talat Pasha, who was the interior minister at that time, and wrote that if the Armenians were not given autonomy, they would get it by fighting. Talat Pasha told the Armenians that we live together equally. My assistant is an Armenian, this general is an Armenian. I cannot give you land. You will unite with Russia. Thereupon, the Armenians began to kill the Kurds and the Turks, Talat Pasha sent them to Syria.

    1:24 Macedonia didn't exist at the time of the ottoman empire.
    3:58 The balkan league aimed to liberate their peoples from ottoman rule. It was not only about Macedonia, but also about Epirus, Thrace, Thessaly, etc.
    5:26 "romania ... borders of their new macedonian possessions" - romania had no macedonian possessions. It didn't participate in the first balkan war.
    no mention of the armenian genocide?
    I find this video quite informative but unprecise in the details.

      "liberate"
      You can't liberate something that didn't exist.. the real word is to conquer Ottoman lands and create new countries there.. ofc you can fool many around the world because those countries themselves were created by the most powerful countries in propagandas (the West).. however if you read the real history far from the stupidity and lies of nationalism, you will realize that it was nothing but conquering Ottoman lands and provinces to create countries under the Western and Russian influence

      @@branis96 If people consider themselves not free (as demonstrated by all the uprisings), you can talk about liberating them. I agree with you that some of it was conquering territory and there was pressure from western powers (the creation of Albania is the most flagrant example).

      @Umer Farooq Turkey would've been another Iran if it weren't for Atatürk. Also, it was more of a reset rather than destruction. Fundamentalism turns a wonderful religion like islam into a 6th century Arabia.
