On the Near East Battlefield, a thrilling scene emerged. At the height of the frontline combat, chaos erupted in the Ottoman rear.
The Armenians rebelled, the Greek people rebelled, the Slavs rebelled, and even the Kurds displayed signs of instability.
If there was no rebellion, it was only because no one had incited them. Otherwise, the ethnic groups rebelling within the Ottoman interior would have swelled considerably.
The initial waves of ethnic uprisings were all thanks to the work of the Anti-Turkish Alliance. Everyone knew that the Ottoman Empire was on the brink, and it was time to switch sides, or it would be too late.
The upper echelons of society needed to secure their futures and thus had to pledge their allegiance. If they did not act now to prove their stance, how would they ensure their status in the future?
If the Anti-Turkish Alliance were to open its doors wide at this moment, it's quite possible that even those within the Ottoman Government would defect.
