Bulgarian Empire

After Constantine pulled out the tiger skin, Harim Pasha knew the result!

There is no doubt that, whether it is willing or not, Constantinople will fall into the hands of Bulgaria, or the Russians, and the delegations of various countries have to express their support clearly.

The 19th century was the century of Europe and the century of Christ! In this day and age, even in the most liberal America, politicians must believe in God!

Whether it is the Orthodox Church, Roman Catholicism, or Protestantism, the rulers in the European continent must show themselves as devout believers of God!

At this point, whether it is Queen Victoria, William II, Nicholas II, or our protagonist Ferdinand, this is the case!

The unanimous support of the representatives of all countries, the opinion of the Ottoman Empire itself is not important. Harim knew that if he continued to entangle in this aspect, he would never get good results! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Just look at the attitudes of the citizens of London. After Bulgaria captured Constantinople, Harim Pasha witnessed the self-organized celebrations of the people three times.

The subsequent negotiations went much smoother. Whether he wanted it or not, Harim Pasha acquiesced in the countries' disposal of Constantinople.

Although greedy, everyone knows that neither the British nor the Germans have the ability to prevent the Russians from obtaining Constantinople and the sovereignty of Bulgaria this time, which is a fig leaf left by the Russians!

But Ferdinand is very satisfied with this result, what else is there in Constantinople now? Except for the political, military, and religious status, it is completely in ruins!

Maybe the Russians have some value in their hands, but in the hands of Bulgaria, Ferdinand really doesn't know what to do?

Rebuild Constantinople? Bulgaria doesn't have the financial resources! Do not rebuild it? Wait to be sprayed to death by public opinion! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

On the contrary, other parts of Istanbul other than Constantinople are more attractive to Ferdinand!

Anyway, it is also the industrial center of the Ottoman Empire, and the foundation left behind is still very strong, which can effectively make up for the lack of Bulgaria's industrial heritage.

After the loss of Constantinople, the morale of the Ottoman delegation was not suppressed, which was obviously expected by them.

Harim Pasha knew that for Bulgaria and Montenegro, the Ottoman Empire had no chips in their hands, but for the Greeks, they still had a lot of chips in their hands.

If the Greek government wanted to return to Athens, it would be impossible without paying the price. Even if Bulgaria was willing to send troops, it would not be able to prevent the Ottoman Empire from destroying the country.

Harim Pasha said righteously: "As the instigator of this war, the due price must be paid. The stability of the Near East cannot be destroyed!" \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Obviously this is aimed at the alliance, and even more so at the Greeks!

But Constantine was not in a hurry to speak, because Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire had reached a secret agreement, and the Greeks were shamelessly betrayed by Ferdinand!

The full name of the agreement is "Post-war Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire Mutual Repatriation of Their Main Nationality Agreement", which is simply an agreement for the exchange of population between the two countries.

This is a win-win agreement. The Ottoman Empire has now suffered enough from the lack of the main ethnic group. Every year, there are endless incidents of minority rebellion. Now the Bulgarians in their country are undoubtedly a factor of instability.

It is in the interests of both parties to throw them to Bulgaria in exchange for the Turks who fully support them, and everyone will settle this account!

After losing the Balkans, how many Bulgarians remained in the Ottoman Empire, and the Sudanese government has not counted the specific number. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Ferdinand didn't even know,

Anyway, he knew that the number would not be small, and the Bulgarians were still the top five races in the Ottoman Empire during World War I!

It is roughly estimated that there are two to three million people, and there are still some. These populations are undoubtedly precious to Ferdinand! He betrayed the Greeks once for this group of people, and there was no pressure in his heart.

Constantine began to pretend to be stupid, and the Greek foreign minister is not a fool, how could he not see it? He simply pretended to be stupid, didn't answer the call, and pretended not to hear.

Now the position of the German delegation is a bit embarrassing. The two younger brothers at the bottom are fighting together again. Who should we help?

It's not that the Germans never thought about reconciling the Greek-Turkish conflict. Unfortunately, with the full-scale outbreak of the Balkan War, there is no room for relaxation between the two sides!

The Ottoman Empire lost so badly this time, how could they give up without making up for the loss? Greece is similar, both have suffered heavy losses, and they all hope to cut a piece of meat from the other party to make up for the loss. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

The Germans just closed their eyes and rested their minds, and made soy sauce from the sidelines; the representatives of the Austro-Hungarian Empire didn't care about the Germans, and they didn't bother to intervene.

Not to mention the French and Russian delegations, they have nothing to do with themselves; the British delegation is also happy to watch the joke now.

Originally, the British were dominant in Greece at first, but the Germans came from behind, including George I, and now the pro-Germans are already dominant in the Greek government.

Without the intervention of the great powers, the issue between the Ottomans and Greece would only be a matter of wrangling.

Negotiations are still going on, everyone is talking about one thing and one thing, and if there is something unclear, as long as it is not directly related, then go to the next one.

Soon the issues concerning Bulgaria and Montenegro were settled, and Harim Pasha was considered broken, and he signed without hesitation whatever became an established fact. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

As long as it can be disputed, he will never give up, and strive to strive for the best interests of the Ottoman Empire.

The negotiations in London were not only completed after the Ottoman Empire and the Balkan Alliance reached an agreement, but also had to be recognized by the great powers before it could take effect!

Everyone has no objection to the Ottoman Empire giving up its territory in the Balkans, but there is controversy over the division of spoils among the Balkan alliances.

The German and Austro-Hungarian delegations made it clear that Greece, as a member of the alliance, had contributed to the war and deserved a share of the spoils.

The Greek delegation, supported by the great powers, has also grown a lot more imposing, and the lion opened its mouth directly, directly claiming territory for half of Macedonia and Albania!

Constantine had already received instructions from Ferdinand, and the distribution of the spoils this time did not include the Greeks, directly ignoring the request of the Greek delegation. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

He took out the secret agreement signed between Ferdinand and King George I. It was clearly written in black and white, and whoever got it first would get it. According to the secret agreement, the distribution of the spoils this time has nothing to do with the Greeks.

Originally, the Germans also advocated assigning the Albanian region to Monte Negro to check and balance Bulgaria. Unfortunately, as soon as the plan was proposed, it was strongly opposed by the Austro-Hungarian Empire and was stillborn.

Anyway, the Austro-Hungarian Empire has also been operating in Serbia for decades. How could Nicholas I's support for the Serbian Revolutionary Army be hidden from the Vienna government?

Now the Austro-Hungarian Empire is still busy dealing with the Serbian Revolutionary Army and has no time to trouble Mentenegro, but the Vienna government opposes any approach to increase their strength!

In order to teach the Mente cabinet a lesson, the Austro-Hungarian Empire also forcibly occupied the area around Priboi, and Nicholas I's estimated territory was reduced by more than 3,000 square kilometers. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Of course, the Austro-Hungarian Empire did not want to watch Bulgaria continue to grow, and proposed to allow Albania to establish an independent country.

It's a pity that Ferdinand has already drawn his salary from the bottom of the pot. Now Albania has only the Bulgarian army except for the Bulgarian supporters. The others either went to Greece or went to the control area of ​​Monte Negro.

The people who supported Bulgaria were now urgently approved by Ferdinand, and all of them became Bulgarian citizens. Now all Albania are citizens of Bulgaria, how can they build an independent country?

Of course, Bulgaria still made concessions, promising to protect the interests of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the region. At the same time, the Austro-Hungarian Empire won the construction of a railway leading to the Adriatic Sea in Albania!

The delegation of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is also very clear that the country is currently busy suppressing the riots in Serbia, and has no energy to interfere in the Albania region in the short term. After receiving compensation, it acquiesced. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Austria-Hungary also proposed the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia, which was supported by the Germans and the British, but opposed by the Russians.

The purpose of the British succeeded. After the Austro-Hungarian Empire annexed Serbia, the conflict between Russia and Austria began to intensify.

It is a pity that neither the Entente nor the Allies have the idea of ​​fighting. The Austro-Hungarian Empire wants to annex Serbia forcibly, and Nicholas II has no intention of sending troops to intervene. The so-called opposition is just to give an explanation to the pro-Russian faction in Serbia!

The conflict between the Russian Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire was not as serious as outsiders imagined.

Nicholas II had secretly reached an agreement with Franz Joseph I long before. In order to achieve their respective goals, the two sides staged a play to deceive the British!

Because the Greek lion opened its mouth wide, it caused strong dissatisfaction in Bulgaria and Montenegro. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

So after the negotiation terms involving the negotiation between the two countries were completed, the two countries announced that the Balkan League was disbanded on the grounds that the Ottoman Empire had now been defeated and the mission of the Balkan League had been completed!

Well, when the Balkan Alliance was signed, there was indeed such a clause, "After defeating the Ottoman Empire, the Balkan Alliance Treaty will automatically expire!"

The Greeks suffered from being pitted by Ferdinand. Two huge pits in a row made it difficult for the Greek government to climb up now!

Now that the Balkan League is gone, the Bulgarian and Montenegro delegations have left the stage directly, and the remaining issues are only the Greeks themselves and the Ottoman Empire to talk slowly!

On September 15, 1897, the negotiations that lasted for more than two months finally came to an end. Bulgaria, Montenegro, and Greece signed peace treaties with the Ottoman Empire, collectively referred to as the "London Treaty."

The signing of the "London Treaty" declared the end of the Balkan War.

Contents of the treaty:

First, Bulgaria and Montenegro will be completely independent from the Ottoman Empire.

Second, the Ottoman Empire gave up all of its territory in Europe.

Among them, Bulgaria obtained the entire territory of Istanbul, Macedonia, Thrace, Kosovo, Halkidiki Peninsula including Constantinople, and most of the territory of Albania. (A total area of ​​about 190,000 square kilometers)

Monte Negro will receive part of the Albanian region, Novi Pazar region. (The total area is about 9000 square kilometers)

The Ottoman Empire acquired the Bosnia and Herzegovina region, the Priboi region. (A total area of ​​about 50,000 square kilometers)

Third, the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria signed the "Post-War Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire Mutual Repatriation of Their Main Nationality Agreement";

Fourth, the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria will jointly have sovereignty over the Bosporus Strait, the Sea of ​​Marmara, and the Dardanelles.

The governments of the two countries will jointly maintain the safety of navigation for ships from various countries and ensure that the freedom of navigation is unrestricted.

Fifth, after the signing of the peace treaty, Bulgaria and Montenegro must release all the prisoners of the Ottoman Empire within the year.
