Crimean War
The Crimean War (October 1853 – February 1856)was a conflict fought between the Russian Empire and an alliance of the French Empire, the British Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Kingdom of Sardinia. The war was part of a long-running contest between the major European powers for influence over territories of the declining Ottoman Empire. Most of the conflict took place on the Crimean Peninsula, but there were smaller campaigns in western Anatolia, Caucasus, the Baltic Sea, the Pacific Ocean and the White Sea. The war has gone by different names. In Russia it is also known as the "Eastern War" and in Britain at the time it was sometimes known as the "Russian War".

As a reaction to the Western’s Imperialism, the ottoman Empire, unlike every other nation, did nothing. If anything, they became more dependent of the Western world ever since they aided the Ottoman Empire to fight off the Romans. No political or cultural reactions occurred. This is most probably due to the fact that the Ottoman Empire was declining. These were the end of its days.
