Late Ottoman period

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Late Ottoman period (c. 1750 - 1918) is the archaeologically and historically defined periodisation of areas under the control of the Ottoman Empire and its dependencies, primarily in the Middle East, North Africa, the Caucasus and the Balkans.[1] Accordingly, the spatial extent of the area covered by the definition was dynamic, getting smaller as time went on.[2] This period is also distinct for the sources recording its history.[3]

As an analytical construct, it overlaps with the later stages of the Ottoman Empire, from about 1750 until its dissolution following the end of the First World War.[4] This period was characterized with increased foreign, primarily European, intervention, outside invasions, the Tanzimat reforms, social modernization, economic globalization, improvements in communications and transportation infrastructure, and political change.[5][6][7]
