    (Bilkent University, 2020) Sajjad, Roha; Abdeen, Abdullah; Bin Roslan, Muhammad Firdaus; Hanyyev, Suleyman; Ballyyev, Muhammet
    This research paper is based on the events that took place in 1914 in the Aegean town named Phocaea where the Greek Orthodox subjects faced first a commercial boycott, then plundering and murder. This paper gives an idea about the 1914 incidents within its wider context. In this paper, we sought to describe the tragedy in detail and to explain the motives and reasons behind it with the help of contemporary sources. This study endeavored to understand the involvement of the Ottoman government and CUP ideologies such as the creation of a national economy, and its relation with the Balkan Wars. The 1914 tragedy was described in detail. The aftermath of all the events and the condition of the Ottoman Empire was explained later, including reactions of other countries.
