The #31MarchIncident, so named due to the #OttomanEmpire's Rumi Calendar then in use, was a reactionary attempted coup against the #YoungTurk/#CUP government on #ThisDayInHistory in 1909. It led to #AbdülhamitII's fall and the appointment of #MehmedV as a constitutional monarch.
When Britain & France carved up the #OttomanEmpire, they were never intending to leave. But Britain at least hoped for indirect control through proxies, as when it placed the #Hashemite #Abdullah as Emir (later king) of its protectorate #Transjordan on #ThisDayInHistory in 1921.
On April 6, 1453, Mehmed II launched the siege that would bring down the Byzantine Empire and change history forever. #RandomFact #DailyFact #History #ByzantineEmpire #OttomanEmpire

Der dem gedruckten Beitrag vorangestellte Abstract (Englisch): Fedora, Kalpak, or Fez Modern Ottoman Dress between National Authenticity and Bourgeois Universality Katja Jana Abstract In this essay I discuss an example of the politics of dress in the late Ottoman Empire, examining it in the light of modernization and the development of national and bourgeois male identities. The industrial production of fabrics and clothing led to new styles of dress spreading almost all over the globe. In accordance with other issues affecting the modernization of numerous aspects of everyday life, dress became an area in which these changing global dynamics manifested themselves. One example is the case of Mehmed Efendi, who was arrested in 1907 in a hostel in the Marmara region for supposedly wearing the wrong kind of headgear. This case sheds light on the heated debates of the time concerning nationally specific dress and the international standards of bourgeois identity in the context of nation-building and modernization. I analyze this example against the backdrop of questions concerning concepts of alternative and multiple modernities.

The #OttomanEmpire claimed the #caliphate in 1517 & its sultan was recognized as such by the #SunniMuslim world until #ThisDayInHistory in 1924, when the Ottoman successor state, #Türkiye, abolished it & exiled #AbdülmecidII. No pretender managed to revive the office of #caliph.
Asked by the #OttomanEmpire to crush a rebellion in Arabia, #Egypt's #MehmetAli asked #Mamluk élite to parade in Cairo on #ThisDayInHistory in 1811. In the #MassacreOfTheCitadel all but one of ~650 were killed, sweeping aside the old guard to open a period of rapid modernization.

It hadn't been much better under the #OttomanEmpire. It's a complicated region, especially since Israel displaced central #Palestine. The West Bank & Gaza have had different trajectories, leaders & sometimes unclear legalities.

Keeping the throne in the #OttomanEmpire was no easy task. For a new sultan, the most foolproof method of securing power was to kill all other claimants.
