I made a previous thread about this, but I wanted to try again, and I kind of wanted to make a timeline about this after my Russian Ethiopia timeline, but here's the idea.
In 1914, at the start of the war, Mehmed V, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, launched a Jihad against the allies. This was supposed to be the Ottoman's wild card and result in revolution, from Pakistan to Algeria. It had little effect.
But what if it did? My idea of how it would start.
1st, the Ottomans win at Sarikamish. They were actually really close to winning, but they lost. But if they win, the Muslims in the Caucasus, and Turkestan start a few small rebellions and are starting to conjure the idea of revolution.
2 The Ottomans win at the Suez Campaign and capture the Canal. A few Egyptians start to revolt, but Muslim Pakistanis, and Bangladeshis, start to think now would be the chance to revolt.
3 The Ottomans win at Basra, halting the British advance into Mesopotamia, making all 3 opening battles a success.
Then, after the Ottomans win at Gallipoli in 1915, the entire Muslim world starts to rebel against their colonial rulers. From Libya to Algeria. From Pakistan to Azerbaijan.
Is this possible? If not, how do I tweak it to get a large Muslim revolution across the Islamic world?
