For 600 years, the Ottoman Empire was a superpower. This two-part documentary tells the story of how this vast empire vanished in less than a century. Part 2 available here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvVLx... The Ottoman Empire extended across three continents and the seven seas. Over the hundred years from Greek independence in 1830 to the Balkan Wars of 1912 and 1913, the Ottoman Empire withdrew from Europe for good after a presence in the Balkans lasting almost 500 years. The shared past is often downplayed by national historians, but the Balkan states are strongly influenced by the complexities of Christian, Muslim and Jewish peoples living together, says Mark Mazower from Columbia University. It was more of a ‘side by side’ existence based on the Ottoman Empire’s "millet” system, where non-Muslims enjoyed the protection of the sultan but had to pay special taxes in return. Over the course of the 19th century, the region’s religious identities slowly became clear national ones; people now saw themselves as Serbs, Greeks, Armenians and Bulgarians. This rising nationalism, along with attempts by the major European powers to get their hands on the region’s resources and the inability of the Ottoman Empire to implement reforms, brought about the end of Ottoman rule in Europe. Using rare picture and film footage and with contributions by international historians, this two-part documentary analyses the last century of the Ottoman Empire and tries to understand its demise. Part 2 will be available online from November 4, 2017. _______ Exciting, powerful and informative - DW Documentary is always close to current affairs and international events.

A top class documatry of a tangled empire
ottoman empire : the supreme state, they are savior of the world in the past because they have been clean something dirt and trashing on the land
the only trash is thee bro hahahaha@@reefmohammed3553
Anyone know why they delete documentaries such as this from the official DW English documentary channel? They deleted another one on Iran that I didn’t get to complete.
They delete the one DW made on Monsanto om my channel
Deamon Thanks for uploading! Upload the Monsanto one again on a different channel and I’ll download it. I should also download this one before it goes down. The Iranian one was titled “Iran - From Theocracy to Regional Superpower?”. Can’t seem to find it any longer.
Deamon# Thank you mate !
YT being Woke morons with erasing history.
Idiots.
those people wearing the fustnella fighting the turks are not Greeks but arvanite Albanians
Fustanella became an official military dress of the Peloponeese under Venetian Rule it was forced in the army. Albanians didnt wear it before 1800
no, they were chinese
No. They are Greek. Fustnella is traced back to ancient greece
It wasn't the Greeks that rebelled first, it was the Serbs in 1804. And we got nominal independence as a vassal state. Only reason Greece gained full independence was because Brits wanted it for easier access to Mediterranean.
True
The Bulgarians rebeled among the first,Check Karposh Uprising but they didnt gain anything significant during that period
actually the first ones were the Albanians in 1444 and in 1878 when formed the league of Prizren even the doc says Kosovo was given to Serbia
Albanians change their religion to Islam, that is not what i call rebellion LOL
Bro greece has been in war with the turks since byzantine😂😂😂
only Germany supported muslim Ottoman empire. and Today, Germany is the country which helps most to muslim refugees. Thanks Germany for everything, God Bless German nation !
Yea funny how u both hate Jews right
@@nazok181 germany and turkey don't hate jews lol, what the hell are you talking about
Omg naives at its highest - (didn’t want to call ignorance) because germans think they need colonies could get because english got the most first. They think if they could strengthen turkish empire again they could get colonies they wanted. That’s why no love relations there at all. Young Turks had similar approach too- using Germans tech they could unite the turkic people of eurasia and strengthen the Turkish empire again. But well..
Islam is evil and so is Hitler . God is watching , Jesus Christ the LORD can discern your hearts and as he said , out of a mans hearts comes adultery , sin.
God looks at your heart, fill it with Love of Jesus Christ the LORD who gave his life for your sins , paid it all, and rose from death and winning death for you, giving you eternal life .
Jesus is alive

The Ottoman era was much more peaceful the last 150 years.
@Roosje Keizer he was saying the last 150 years of the Ottoman empire.
Not just the Armenian Genocide but the "peaceful" extinction of the Greeks of Asia Minor and the "peaceful" destruction of Smyrna....which the Turks deny ever happened.
The last 150 years were more peaceful...if you were Turkish. The entire Christian population of Anatolia and Balkans says otherwise.
@Roosje Keizer there ws no genocide we wasnt even in jerevan and 2 they cont the deaths off 700k armenien from standoffs (armered with british france guns) between 1880 to 1914
And armenia didnt open his archiv to solv the problem and the turkisch archiv is fully open
@koksal ceylan stfu u dumb rat
The background music is exceedingly loud and annoying and disruptive.
Its so wrong to say “Abdulhamids Empore lost territory”. For the first 3 years of Abdulhamids ruling, he didn’t have the right to make decisions. It was like a “test trial” period for him and therefore all the traitor pashas made the decision. Thats why after the war he took charge and kept the country stable for 30 years!
Noob
this was fascinating. And horribly depressing. Anything that happened anywhere in human history can happen again, and again, and again - as long as religion and acquisitors march hand in hand
Yeah , and what did atheism brought to this World ? WW1 / WW2 / millions of deaths

You should have used the word ideology other than “religion “...humans have fought over strategic, geographical locations and religion had nothing to do with it.
@@anthonysodano2255 YOU should have prefaced your comment: "In my opinion...."
What is this documentary talking about non-muslims had to pay a special tax which was cheaper than the tax on muslims. They carried no arms, but were not obligated to fight in wars, although muslims were.
...amele tabourlari...
24:45 Didn't the Kaiser also advocate "jihad"?
Interesting point
News flash Muslims also had to pay taxes . Taxes weren’t just for non-Muslims the were for everyone .intact Muslims had to pay more taxes along with zakah (alms) ,and they had to fight in the army if they r able to, non Muslims didn’t have to join the army it was obligatory for Muslims.
Refer Jannissery
Christian levies
What are you talking about they literally had a " blood tax" none Muslim children was forced into the army and forced to change religion
Not to mention that the Christians were considered cutle - " raya" literally work animals
@@livewithapurpose5651 in Balkans it was known as the blood tax..
Muslims didn't pay jizya tax because they were not subjugated as second class citizens under control of a dhimmitude status as infade

now make it rhyme
What a lots of bolox in 5 minutes of video. From introduction of video about war in Bosna, to moment it said Greeks ware first to rebel against Turks in 1820s.. Even if we would look only 19th century, Serbs before 1820s Serbs had 3 uprising, one in Bosna and 2 in Serbia with second being successful where Serbian state was established. Serbia paid freedom dearly with quarter of million dead. Greeks and all that followed in ware just riding on train powered by life of Serbs. Also if we look any prior century, in each of them Serbs had number of uprising some with horrific cost . Serbs had more uprisings than any other people's, fact. Saying that Greeks ware first to rise against Turks is insult to all that died before, and insult to historical facts, and for what? What's the purpose of that lie? I love Greece and Greek history, I was there and will go again. They have rich and beautiful history, culture, people.. But history teachings should be based on facts and not lies and previous glorry (like classical Greece).
If we go back there, the first first rebellion was the trabzon rebellion in 1500s, its not a race between people, the 19th century was full of rebells due to nationalism.
Serbs helped ottomans conquer Constantinople and they were vassals till 1800s.
Fight fight fight, kill, kill, kill....no good is p,eased and definitely no human is served,
Check Benny Morris's latest book ''Turkey's destruction of its Christian minorities, 1894-1924''. A massive research in Archives, correspondence etc. A great, great effort!!! Keep in mind that Benny Morris is one of the most sincere historians of Israel. He spoke against his own government's policy in relation to the second Indifanda and many other situations which considered tabboo in Israel.
Foreign powers played, manipulated the Ottomans.
Malta was never part of the Ottoman Empire, however you coloured it red .
Go back and check your history friend.
As a Maltese I know very well Malta’s history.
In 1565 the Ottomans tried to take Malta, but failed.
@@richardgalea9884 you're right good sir. I was mistaking about something else. I do appreciate you correcting me and teaching me . 🕊️ & 💕
Extremely propagandist documentary. DW truly represents how hypocrate europe is when it comes to really anything that does not coencide with their own interest.
Why the only "historians" that are interview-ed are Greek, French speeking Turk and for me most interesting French and English when the story contains the history of many others like Serbs, Bulgarians, Russian and many others (overall 60-70% of the anticipated nations) . They don't deserve to tell their own history ? DW should be ashamed.
Dimitar Lyubenov well I wonder why the British and Americans are not accused of crimes against native aborigines and indians
Because these nations were used by the western countries like England, France and Italy, as well as Russia on the East. Didn’t you see the pattern? They western countries took control of Africa and the middle east while allowing the Balkans to be “liberated” and “independent”. After that they there was this “one nation, one religion and one identity” goal in the Balkans resulting in Balkan countries fighting between each other and causing hundreds of thousands of muslims to be displaced and killed. Under Ottoman rule, this was not the case. As you know the same happened in Bulgaria in 1989 under the communist party. The idea of one nation, one identity and one religion is not good at all.
So a Turk who speaks a foreign language doesn't count as real Turk? 😂
@@koksalceylan3934 Do you have any argument at all?
We've met each other in the comment sections many times and always with the same result.
You just throwing insults and then (after my replies) anxiously deleting your comments.
Start reading books. Here's a suggestion. "Turkey's destruction of its Christian minorities. 1894-1924" by Benny Morris. A massive reaserch on official documents and secret correspondence of the Foreign Offices (Among others most importantly from your WW1 allies, the Germans). Enjoy...
Every empire has a lifetime , ottoman lived long life and peoble of ottoman lived peacefully ,that is important , I am proud of my ancestor, ottoman
Albanian rebellion started in Kosovo and the greater powers gave Kosovo to Serbia such a shame only because some Albanians fought with ottomans and were converted into muslims they gave the heart of Albanian people to serbia and europe destoried all Albanian borders not only in kosovo but macedonia and greece
In your microcosm maybe.Albanians were the best ottoman puppies, some thieves were blowing up and stealing local farmers and you call that "rebellion"
Greeks were NOT THE FIRST! They rebelled 1821, while we Serbs were the FIRST 1804, almost 20 years before the Greeks.
Autonomy =/= independence.
What a big achievement 👏👏👏
Bulgarians in Macedonia revolted even before that and were one of the most rebelious slavs during those dark periods
Indeed Serbs were the first who took up arms against the barbaric ottoman rulers.
and Kosovo was never Serbia this doc proves that it was given to you by the greater powers Kosovo was and will always remain the heart of Albanian people so was part of macedonia taken from Albanian and little part of north Greece most of these fustanella warriors in this doc all Albanian sad they didnt fight for their own country but fought for money with the Greeks
the ottoman empire the only country that allowed any one to live with regarding your relagun or color or any thing ,
Amele tabourlari and the Turkish policy of ''become turk or die'' says otherwise.
@@CaptainHarlock-kv4zt you literally are a loser, right? You reply to everyone's comment on this video, forcing a fascist greek perspective on others. Last time I remember back in 1920, the greeks were the aggressors, invading asia minor, not the other way around. It's ironic how even with British help, your country still manages to lose against a dead empire. Pathetic.
The young turk government from1909 and on decide the Turkification of all the Christians in the empire. The ottoman army commit unimaginable atrocities during 1912-1924. I guess they don't teach you REAL history in turkey. You're just a sad excuse of human being like many of your compatriots.
@@CaptainHarlock-kv4zt I guess they don't teach you REAL history , you right , you need to read the true history :)
yeah yeah nothing really to say hah ? Put aside Turkish and Greek historians and you may learn something.
tell me something good that they did
I can count dozens of points just right now

Ottoman empire... In other words muslim ruled. Glad that the empire fell cause they were the last ones in the world to give up slavery in the late 1800s early 1900s

Hell had it's way for far too long with that Crap of fate.
The tax that jews and christians pay in a context of a muslim society is the equivalent of what muslims pay wich is called 'zakat'. And in many cases, this tax is actually less than zakat. Also, chrisitians and jews were protected by the muslims and DIDNT HAVE to participate in wars. Its not that they werent allowed to, who wants to go to war man ? You guys need learn about islamic rules, only then you can give yourselves the right to tell history rather than interpreting it the way it suits your feelings. Have more intellectual integrity, look how muslims and chrisitians live now under the opression of isreali soldiers. What you are describing about the ottomans contradicts ,in a major way, the Islamic teachings wich automatically gives me a clear idea about the veracity of this documentary.Inaccurate, misleading and totally dishonest !
You might be one that would know so I'm coming asking a question. Does Islam teach it's okay to beat your wife?
GoneBamboo Nope its not, and I guess you want to quote the verse 4:34 from the Quran without reading it thoroughly right?

There is no much exemplar in Ottoman empire
Like other they were also equally bloodthirsty
They also exploited by slave trade
( Barbary slave trade , Sexual slave trade of women in east Europe , Constant Ottoman raids to other areas for slaves )

Ottomans empire was the most peaceful empire in human history..
no it was incredibly violent and caused millions of deaths and suffering
And this is how it at some point was nearly controlled lands from Crimea, Caucasus and Iraq to Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia and Algeria and Tunisia? Without making wars against other countries?
Come on. Get serious.
The Ottomans payed for their crimes.... Im glad.
Peron 04 Fuck off,it lasted for 623 years(6 centuries) and it's atrocities were miniscule compared to other great powers during it's era.The genocide were commited by a nationalist party(The Young Turks),the house of Osman weren't part of this.
British and French were probably the two major European powers who prevented Ottoman Empire from collapsing unto itself 75-100 years before it eventually did. Russians after the Napoleonic Wars emerged as the largest, presumably most powerful land army in Europe even though their society was perceived by many Europeans as semi-feudal and barbaric, particularly their treatment of Jews, forced resettlement, denied entry into primary and secondary schools, and centuries of conquering and oppression of neighboring national minorities. Throughout most of the 19th century, Britain and France were engaged in a subtle, sometimes deadly diplomatic, espionage kind of Cold War called "the Great Game" by historians throughout most of ME, North Africa, Iran, Armenia, Afghanistan, British Raj in India, Nepal, China and even Tibet all played supporting parts in a geostrategic shell game. Before the rise of unified Germany and more militaristic Wilhelm II's desire to build a commercial and maritime navy that would challenge UK's sea dominance, Czarist Russia was the perceived enemy among career European monarchs, diplomats, kings, presidents, and politicians. It was Russia's assumed expansionism into ME and Black Sea/Mediterranean gobbling up and conquering weak, corrupt, non-modern Ottoman Empire that first started the Greek War of Independence in 1831, than the Crimean War from 1853-56 where Czar Alexander I told British ambassador that the Ottomans were Europe's sick man and couldn't be healed, and that instead of endless conflict, they, British, French should come to some accommodations over how best they should carve different parts of the remaining Ottoman Empire or "Eastern Question" as it was called for. British and then French ambassadors said no because they feared Russian expansionism into Middle East and British and Russians had worse relations, diplomatically, then they had with the French at the time. Crimean War was the conflict that showed the Russians how woefully far behind they were in terms of infrastructure, industrialization, military logistics, movements, government and military decision-making. It was a bloody, cold, violent war that was also the first war in modern history to feature war photography, newspaper correspondents at the front, it was also the only war in the 19th century the French actually won. But the British and French didn't have to defend Ottomans and defend Constantinople from being captured and overrun by Russian troops, for centuries Russia had this almost religious like zeal to reconquer Constantinople from Muslim Ottoman Turks, reverse the mistake of 1453 when Mehmet the Conqueror surrounded and defeated the last Byzantine emperor, Russian foreign policy since early 18th century had been as the protector and guardian of Orthodox Slavs in Eastern Europe and Armenia, and to retake and re-Christianize Constantinople. The Russians could have destroyed Ottomans in the 1870s during the Russo-Turkish War and retaken Constantinople if it weren't for British and European intervention that stopped them, it was for this very reason the Ottomans ceded Cyprus over to the British as a gesture of goodwill and why it stayed under British sovereignty for the next century almost.
@Roosje Keizer They are Freemasons,Freemasons don't have any religions.Even if they were clashes between Muslims and Christians that is primarily hostilities between them as they are supporting different powers of that time,they are purely skirmishes.
@Roosje Keizer Woah we got a special snowflake right here.I'm pretty sure I got it right based on historical facts.A majority of the CUP which is the predecessor of TYT are educated in France,they tried to overthrow the sultan so they could govern the Ottoman empire.The donmehs who we're mainly situated in Thessaloniki,Greece aided them economically.Thus,they are Muslims in person but a Freemason at heart.I don't know which part that is unclear for u or is it you're just a delusional fool that calls people who speaks the truth as faux and misinforming?
Says the butthurt Portuguese/Spanish who single handed wiped whole South-America and murdered more people then all nations all their history combined.
There were higher taxes for muslims. Non-muslims had always privelage to pay much less, and not to attend any military work. They were free in trade, had their own lands etc. Most of them lived rich. There are so much more in favor of the nonmuslim population of the time that not just this documentary but many other do not tell. Those are the reasons why Armenians who live in Turkey are not enemies and consider themselves as a real part of the nation because they know the truth unlike the hostile ones in their homeland. Even some Greek and Armenian clerks know how the empire valued freedom, human life, religious values no matter what. And of course unlike what mass media around the world says, kurds of Turkey are the muslim brothers from that day till now and the terrorist organizations pretend to be of them as they are in fact not if we should speak of today as well. Faithful Turks simply consider anyone who stood up for the truths as their brothers regardless of their faiths or ethnic backgrounds. The multi-nationed empire suffered from the conspiracies and plots a lot despite the fact that all people from different sociocultural and religious background were treated fairly, welcomed and protected. Even today foreigners who visit Turkey knows and feels that fact in their bones. Ottomans, who even sheltered the jews from inquisitions with no expectation of benefits in return, were backstabbed many times, over and over again. All enemies within and outside had eaten the empire alive. Then after the Ottoman era, Turkey began to be a hardcore country where it obviously had no tolerance for its own Ottoman grandsons but nonmuslims and the influential western culture only to gain the favor of the masters of plots, to be delusionally spared. Untill the beginning of 2000s. Turkey now is a friend to all those who wish her to be but does not seek the favor of such sides anymore. The huge power that had been lost can not be restored but the spirit of the people can. However what Turkey lacks the most now is a place in mass media and social media platforms. There are restrictions as well as they do not invest enough on digital platforms to have its voice be heard regarding tons of knowledge that has not been unleashed yet. That is why documentaries , movies, news etc have the courage to distribute so called truths as they will because there is almost nothing to counter them. The people of today do not go and search for the sources of all sides, they also will not hear any historians, politicians or anyone on the other end that are defamed by their own sources in their own platforms. The essence of the problem of ignorace starts there. And that shall be solved once Turkey starts producing the real stuff that would reach masses around the world.
