Armenian Genocide
- During World War I, the Ottoman Empire deliberately destroyed the Armenian people and their culture, which is known as the Armenian genocide.
- It was carried out chiefly through the forcible conversion of Armenian women and children to Islam, which was spearheaded by the ruling Committee of Union and Progress, and the massacre of about a million Armenians on death marches to the Syrian Desert.
- A string of military defeats and territory losses for the Ottoman Empire, especially the Balkan Wars of 1912–1913, instilled in CUP leaders a worry that the Armenians, whose country in the eastern provinces was seen as the heartland of the Turkish people, would seek independence.
