Answer

Abdulmejid I was the sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1839 to 1861. His reign saw a period of reform and modernization, but also the rise of nationalist movements in the Balkans and elsewhere. These movements were motivated by a variety of factors, including economic inequality, religious discrimination, and political repression. The Ottoman government was unable to suppress these movements, and they eventually led to the empire's disintegration.
