Khilafat Movement 1919
In First World War, which began in 1914, Turkiye had sided with Germany against the British. Germany and her allies were defeated in war. When the war was over, Britain and her allies deprived Turkiye of the territories of Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iraq, Palestine and Jordan which endangered the existence of Turkiye.
