Notes:
– While Egypt, Cyprus, and Crete were in theory/legally Ottoman possessions, in reality they were not controlled by them. Egypt and Cyprus were British controlled while Crete was an independent republic at the time in defiance of the Ottomans.
– The border between Senussi and Ottoman control is very fluid and complicated, so I went with the approximately accepted administrative borders.

Italians: "Wait…move into the desert? Let's not be hasty guys."
Italy 🤝 Balkan League
Kinds crazy that Bulgaria and much of Greece wasnt Ottoman anymore but that Libya still was
One could say the Treaty of Ouchy was quite an ouchy to the Ottomans.
Nice to see this video remade
Shouldn't Istanbul be called Konstantiniyye in this time period
age of history ahh music
this is the pure definition of "win the fight, lose the battle"
Italy had no chance againist Ottoman Empire if İttihat-Terakki government didn't just gave Libya.
Italians being the based department, pulling out that Raid spray.

Ottoman fleet didn't even join the war due to its condition. Officers including Mustafa Kemâl Atatürk arrived Libya using an illegal path through British Egypt. Despite the technological superiority, we didn't actually lose the war on the front. We had to cede our territories including Dodecanese (which had a significant Turkish population) owing to Italian navy.
Man, under pressure diplomacy really rears it's head here

Did you seriously make an entire quiz, video and stream about the preferred border of tripolitania just so you could choose a map for a video💀? Not to mention it's almost completely cut off so it didn't really matter💀💀🥐
A war for a piece of sand?
Wow thanks
I was just thinking about this war👍
Small correction: Constantinople was not changed to Istanbul until Ataturk, so it should be Constantinople.
0:43 “declaring jihad on the Italians” was not a phrase I ever expected to read or hear in my lifetime.
Yet here we are.
The first war with planes.
WW1 pre game lobby
