Why did the Ottoman Empire collapse?

"In November 1922, the rule of one of the most powerful empires of all time came to an end. The Ottoman Empire, which had ruled the Eastern Mediterranean region and far beyond for over six centuries, was history.

But the end did not come very suddenly; for a long time there had already been signs of a gradual decline of the empire, which was finally referred to by the other great powers only as the sick man on the Bosporus.

Long gone were the days when the Ottoman Empire was one of the world's greatest military and economic powers. When the empire stretched from the Danube to the Nile. And when it was considered the center of culture and science.

But how could such a rapid rise be followed by such a continuous decline? Why were the rulers unable to turn the tide and why did the empire eventually collapse completely? We look at all these questions in today's video! Have fun!" #OttomanEmpire, #history
