Do any of you know about Gallipoli war it was the biggest war of Turkish history. There were many countries involved in it.
It all started through the end of the 19th century Germany was the biggest power of the time and England and France was very worried about this.
As Germany took sides in the Austria Hungary vs Russia conflicts towards Austria and Hungary things started to heat up in Europe.
When the embassador of Austria Hungary was shot in Bosnia (i forget his name) Austria Hungary declared war on Serbia and WWI started.
As the Ottoman Empire who was weak and weary of the balkan wars took sides in this war with Germany because they were literally bankrupt and with the money of the people they bought two British warships Goeben and Bresleau and bombed Russian bays.
This war is probably the last romantic war of the world because this was the last war where manpower,courage, and feelings were put into a war so much because later on technology started to evolve and etc.
I want to show you guys some of the spine chilling stories i have heard about this war which was fought between these couragious countries.
There were 2 wars from the ground and a navy war which made it even a bigger tradegy.
Almost 250,000 Turkish soldiers died alone not including the and almost that much died from the Anzacks and British. WHen i hear stories about this story i get chills down my spine every time.
One of the stories i have heard was that theere would be so many dead soldiers that they would call truce for a while bury all their soldiers shake hands and start to fight again.
The Turks would throw cigarettes across to the Anzacks and the Anzacks would throw back canned meat that wrote on it "Bon apettite our honorable enemies."
It is said that 6000 bullets were used per square feet. Amazing.
In 1915 the University of Istanbul could not give any graduates because they were all lost in the war.
There is so much more that i can write about this war and all of its questions.
For example why the Australians landed on a rigid mountainous bay where they could not attack the enemy and therefore had to retreat? Or why the British underestimated the Turks so much.
Why did i write all this? Becuase i think some people should think twice, or three times before just hitting a button and going to war and this is one of the biggest examples of it. All these honorable soldiers lost for both sides really saddens me.
