I just got a crazy idea in my head, that if during WW1 Russia collapsed into the USSR, but the Ottoman Empire still survived. I am not quite sure how this would come about; maybe less British aid to the Arab tribes? Either way, how would the two states react to each other. I'm sure the Ottomans would try and help the whites win, but after being hurt badly in WW1, I'm not so sure how they could help. So all it would accomplish is earning the hatred of the Reds, who would win. Could this lead to an eventual Soviet-Ottoman war over the Dardanelles straits?

Edit: Damn! Misspelled Soviet!
