See for example the argument ## Introduction Here I introduce the concept of marijuana and its effects on the human body. [^fn1] ## Conclusion Anderson's text situates the emergence of the "sick man of Europe" in the per between the Treaty of Kucuk-Kaynarca (1774) and the Treaty of Lausanne (1923) This is a standard interpretation of Ottoman decline which examines it from the perspective of diplomatic history and international relations. Likewise it is a view from outside, with very few Ottoman documents utilized. The basic skeleton emerges by the following divisions - the weakness of the empire becomes evident by Russian successes in the 1768-1774 war and the general disfunction of a huge political system and a vast empire. This is followed by the emergence of the capitulatory system, where European states began to use Ottoman subjects as proxies for their interests. Followed by the influence of the Napoleonic Wars, Balkan nationalism grew and culminated with the Greek War of Independence. This was was successful for a number of factors, but decidedly because of its joint happenstance with the Mohammed Ali revolt. This was followed by a secondary crisis and the Ottomans became more of a theatre of war for European powers with the Crimean war - Britain vs. Russia basically. The Congress of Berlin attempts to partially resolve the Eastern Crisis of 1875-1878. This is followed by a short attempt to modernize which only really signified the greater penetration and intersection of European influences in the empire, which culminated in the weakness that gave the Balkan states their victory in the Balkan Wars, and lead to the disastrous Peace Settlement that destroyed the Empire and created the Turkish Republic as the most stable political structure in the Middle East. random text to make two pages Anderson's text situates the emergence of the "sick man of Europe" in the per between the Treaty of Kucuk-Kaynarca (1774) and the Treaty of Lausanne (1923) This is a standard interpretation of Ottoman decline which examines it from the perspective of diplomatic history and international relations.
