The Ottoman Empire was a large empire with a culture different from the West, spread over a very strategically important geography in the Asian, European and African continents in the early 18th century. For this reason, it has always been a target of the West. Western states, which had completed the industrial revolution at the end of the 19th century, could not catch up with the industrial revolution process, so they implemented the project known as the "Eastern Question" in order to disintegrate the backward Ottoman Empire and expel the barbarian Turks from these lands;
First, the Ottoman lands became an open market for the industrial products of the West, and underground and surface resources became raw materials. When the Ottoman Finance, which was in debt, declared bankruptcy, the Public Debt Administration was established and all underground and aboveground resources and revenues were confiscated, and after the First World War, ; With Mudros and Sèvres, the last Ottoman lands were occupied and the "Eastern Question" was put to an end, and Armenians and Kurds also benefited from this sharing by gaining the right to establish an independent state.
However, this project could not be concluded with the Lausanne Treaty and was left unfinished.
