The Ottoman Empire's Impossible Position in War
The Ottoman Empire faced an incredibly challenging and precarious position during World War I. As a multi-ethnic empire already weakened by internal strife and territorial losses, its involvement in the war was a desperate attempt to maintain its waning power.

From the disastrous Gallipoli campaign to the Arab Revolt, the Ottoman Empire was stretched thin, battling on multiple fronts with limited resources. This video explores how the empire's fragile state, complex alliances, and internal divisions contributed to its eventual collapse, marking the end of centuries of Ottoman rule and reshaping the Middle East forever. Dive deep into the impossible position that ultimately led to the dissolution of one of history's most enduring empires.
