The Ottoman Empire came close to joining the Great War in 1914. So what would happen if they did?
Considering the junta was quite pro- German...Perhaps the Ottomans fall into Civil War and becomes partitioned into several statelets like the Central Powers and Russia did?
On which side would the Ottomans enter, though?
Remember that Russia imported an awful lot of war materiel, and most of it went through the Dardanelles. How long could the Ottomans have reasonably held the straits against the Royal Navy, and what impact would that have had on Russia's ability to stay in the war as long as they did?

Whcih revolution do you mean - the 1919 or 1925 Russian revolution?
1919. They rolled up the Workers Transcaucasian Republic from 1919 to 1921, remember? Not that anyone really cared, since Kemal was much nicer to the people of the region than the White Russians were.
The fighting in Northern Dagestan and around Stavropol was infamously brutal during the civil war, and when you're the guy with the well paid, professional army that isn't massacring civilians, it's hard not to be seen as anything but the good guy. Never mind that you're only there for the oil.
Who is Ataturk? To the Google machine!! Oh, so that what happened to Grand Vizier Mustafa Kemal Pascha after he was ousted. Went mad and tried to establish a Republic in the Caucasus. Who knew...1919. They rolled up the Workers Transcaucasian Republic from 1919 to 1921, remember?
