MAKING CONNECTIONS
How can nationalism affect
a country?
Mexican president Lázaro Cárdenas sparked an era of change
with policies promoting land reforms and workers’ rights and limiting
foreign investment—all goals of the Mexican Revolution. Known as
the president who stood up to the United States, Cárdenas seized the
property of foreign oil companies in Mexico. In this chapter you will
learn how nationalist movements affected individual nations.

Nationalism in the Middle East
The Ottoman Empire ended shortly after World War I. While
the new Turkish Republic modernized, Persia evolved into the
modern state of Iran and the kingdom of Saudi Arabia was
established. In Palestine, tensions mounted as both Arabs and
Jews viewed the area as their homeland.
GUIDE TO READING
The BIG Idea
Self-Determination
After World War I,
the quest for national self-determination led to the
creation of Turkey, Iran, and Saudi Arabia. In the
same period, the Balfour Declaration supported the
creation of a national Jewish homeland in Palestine.

The Ottoman Empire—which once had included parts of east-
ern Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa—had been grow-
ing steadily weaker. The empire’s size had decreased dramatically
during the nineteenth century. Greece achieved its independence
during the course of the 1820s and 1830s, and the empire subse-
quently lost much more European territory. Ottoman rule also
ended in North Africa.
In 1876 Ottoman reformers seized control of the empire’s gov-
ernment and adopted a constitution that set up a
legislature.
However, the sultan they placed on the throne,
Abdülhamˉd II,
suspended the new constitution. Abdülham¯d paid a high price
for his authoritarian actions—he lived in constant fear of assassi-
nation. He kept a thousand loaded revolvers hidden throughout
his guarded estate and insisted that his pets taste his food before
he ate it.
The suspended constitution became a symbol of change to a
group of reformers named the Young Turks. This group forced the
restoration of the constitution in 1908 and deposed the sultan the
following year. However, the Young Turks lacked strong support
for their government. The stability of the empire was also chal-
lenged by many ethnic Turks who had begun to envision a Turk-
ish state that would encompass all people of Turkish nationality.

Impact of World War I
The final blow to the old empire came from World War I. After
the Ottoman government allied with Germany, the British sought
to undermine Ottoman rule in the Arabian Peninsula by support-
ing Arab nationalist activities there. The nationalists were aided
by the dashing British adventurer
T. E. Lawrence,
popularly
known as “Lawrence of Arabia.”

In 1916 Arabia declared its independence

minority had been pressing the Ottoman
government for its independence for years.
In 1915 the government began killing
Armenian men and expelling women and
children from the empire.
Within 7 months, 600,000 Armenians
had been killed, and 500,000 had been
deported (sent out of the country). Of those
deported, 400,000 died while marching
through the deserts and swamps of Syria
and Mesopotamia. By September 1915, an
estimated 1 million Armenians were dead.
The Armenian Genocide
During the war the Ottoman Turks had
alienated the Allies with their policies
toward minority subjects, especially the
Armenians. The Christian Armenian

The Turkish Republic
At the end of World War I, the tottering
Ottoman Empire collapsed. Great Britain
and France made plans to divide Ottoman
territories in the Middle East. Only the area
of present-day Turkey remained under
Ottoman control. Then, Greece invaded
Turkey and seized the western parts of the
Anatolian Peninsula.
The invasion alarmed key
elements
in
Turkey, who were organized under the
leadership of the war hero Colonel Mus-
tafa Kemal. Kemal summoned a national
congress calling for the creation of an
elected government and a new Republic
of Turkey. His forces drove the Greeks
from the Anatolian Peninsula. In 1923 the
last of the Ottoman sultans fled the coun-
try, which was now declared to be the
Turkish Republic. The Ottoman Empire
had finally come to an end.
They were victims of
genocide,
the delib-
erate mass murder of a particular racial,
political, or cultural group. (A similar prac-
tice would be called
ethnic cleansing
in
the Bosnian War of 1993–1996.) One
eyewitness to the 1915 Armenian deporta-
tion said:

“[She] saw vultures hovering over children who
had fallen dead by the roadside. She saw beings
crawling along, maimed, starving and begging for
bread. . . . [S]he passed soldiers driving before them
. . . whole families, men, women and children,
shrieking, pleading, wailing . . . setting out for exile
into the desert from which there was no return.”
—as quoted in
The First World War,
by Martin
Gilbert
By 1918, another 400,000 Armenians had
been massacred. Russia, France, and Brit-
ain denounced the Turkish actions as being
“crimes against humanity and civiliza-
tion.” Because of the war, however, the
killings continued.

How did the
Ottoman Empire finally end?
The Armenian Genocide
As the Ottoman Empire eroded, ethnic tensions increased. When the
Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) seized power in 1913, leaders
responded to Armenian calls for reform with force. Seeking a purely Turkish
state, they began a campaign of genocide. Beginning in 1915, Armenian
Christians were murdered, deported, and sent to concentration camps.
“The Ottoman Empire should be cleaned up of the Armenians and the
Lebanese. We have destroyed the former by the sword, we shall destroy
the latter through starvation.”
—Enver Pasha, leader of the Young Turks, May 19, 1916
Allied with the Central Powers in World War I, CUP leaders massacred
Armenians under the cover of war. Despite Allied warnings to end the
genocide, the killing continued until 1919. To this day, Turkey refuses to
acknowledge the Armenian genocide.
The Massacre of the Armenians
appeared in
Le Petit
Journal
in France December 12, 1915. The lithograph
shows the April 24, 1915, murder of 300 Armenian
leaders, writers, and professionals as well as
thousands of impoverished Armenians.
