Crimean War (oct 5, 1853 – mar 30, 1856)

Description:

The Crimean War, a dispute initially over alleged Ottoman abuses against Christians by the Russian Empire, was a European conflict notable for being the only European War between 1815 and 1914 that involved more than two great powers, with a coalition of France, Britain, and the Ottoman against the Russian Empire, fighting a conflict that severely blunted Russian might on the European continent and began a period of decline that would last essentially until the Russian Revolution.
