It certainly was in last century of ottoman rule, i already pointed out most dramatic events from my perspective, i will add one more illustration biggest infrastructure and economy project of ottoman empire here in Bosnia in 19 century was brewery here in Sarajevo.
Honestly ottoman empire worst century started from 1800s all the way to the end of the empire.
It was a true shitshow from losing territories, wars, corruption, ethnic rebellions, rise of nationalism, local beys having too much power, traditionalist class, jannisaries and their destruction, growth of religious fundamentalism, ethnic cleansings, refugees, rise of liberalism and then you have the intervention of the Great Powers like UK, Russia, France, Germany and Austria-Hungary.
Not even the Sultans could reverse the Empires collapse no matter what.
Then came World War 1 which basically confirmed the Empire was dead for good.
For us Turks our world was collapsing so many questions what do we do???
Do we fight?
Do go back to Central Asia build a homeland there like our forefathers before coming to Anatolia?
Anatolia our homeland was under siege forget the empire and the sultans our very existence was under threat.
It makes me even shed tears even thinking about it. Our forefathers sacrificed a lot.
