Russo-Turkish War of 1877–1878
Shelf by nono umasy
The Russo-Turkish War of 1877–1878, a significant conflict in Eastern European history, was primarily a territorial and power struggle between the Russian Empire and the Ottoman Empire. This war was a pivotal moment in the decline of the Ottoman Empire and the expansion of Russian influence in the Balkans and Caucasus regions. Sparked by the Russian desire to gain territorial control and protect Orthodox Christians in the Ottoman territories, the war saw major battles such as those at Plevna and Shipka Pass. The war concluded with the Treaty of San Stefano, leading to a substantial reconfiguration of territorial control in Europe and laying the groundwork for the subsequent Balkan Wars. The Russo-Turkish War also had a profound impact on the geopolitical landscape of Europe, influencing the Great Powers and leading to the Congress of Berlin, which modified the treaty and reshaped the political boundaries in the Balkans.
