Dissolution of the Ottoman Empire:wiki
The dissolution of the Ottoman Empire (1908-1922) began with the watershed event of Young Turk Revolution and ended with the partitioning of the Empire by the victorious sides of the First World War in the early part of the 20th century.Young Turk Revolution which had a support from British gave a way to a new political system. The influence of Germany was not as dominant as Abdul Hamid's regime.Just after the revolution (1908), the Cretan deputies declared union with Greece by taking advantage of revolution as well as the timing of Zaimis's vacation away from the island.[1] The 1908 left the issue unsolved between the Empire and Cretans. In 1909 after the parliament elected the governing structure, CUP decided that if order was maintained and the rights of Muslims were respected issue would be solved with negotiations.
