hey, all. once again, my notes turned up something that i want to address before i go much further. it used to be for my ASB ATL that WWI was replaced by a regional war between Serbia and Austria and their respective allies, which gets Ottoman Turkey involved as well. as a secondary POD, i'd written in that Ataturk dies during the war (or else just doesn't come to power), though tbph i forget exactly why i'd written that part in.
anyway, for this discussion i want to try to figure out what would happen to the Ottoman Empire in the event of World War I not taking place as well as addressing two possibilities with Ataturk where he either lives (but doesn't necessarily come to power) or dies prematurely. any ideas on this?
