Description

During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries the Near East underwent profound changes. Most obviously these were political: after six hundred years of pre-eminence the Ottoman Empire collapsed, to be replaced by several smaller states in South-East Europe, Western Asia and North Africa. That process culminated in the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923 when the political structure of the modern Near East was largely established. A comprehensive and authoritative account of the period.
