13 апр 1909 г. - Ottoman countercoup of 1909

Описание:

The Ottoman countercoup of 1909 (13 April 1909) was an attempt to dismantle the Second Constitutional Era of the Ottoman Empire and replace it with an autocracy under Sultan/Caliph Abdul Hamid II. Unfortunately for the advocates of representative parliamentary government, mutinous demonstrations by disenfranchised regimental officers broke out which led to the collapse of the Ottoman government. Characterized as a counterrevolution, chaos reigned briefly and several people were killed in the confusion. It was instigated by some parts of the Ottoman Army in a large part by a certain Cypriot Islamist Dervish Vahdeti, who reigned supreme in Constantinople for 11 days. The Countercoup was put down in the 31 March Incident, on 24 April 1909 by the Army of Action.
