Did Abdulmejid I try to encourage Ottomanism among the majority or the secessionist groups?

  • Majority

  • Secessionist

  • Both

  • Cannot be determined

Answer

Abdulmejid I attempted to encourage Ottomanism among the secessionist groups, but this did not have the desired effect. The secessionist groups were opposed to the Ottoman Empire and wanted to establish their own independent states. Ottomanism was a policy that sought to unite all of the different peoples of the Ottoman Empire under a single identity, but this was not acceptable to the secessionist groups.
