At the end of WWI the Ottoman state was abolished and carved up by the victorious allies. The people who lived there were punished through the creation of various kings and dictators to rule over them.
The Turks fought back ~ presumably they are selected out for condemnation because they were not sufficiently survile.
Yes and no. While all those places and peoples had their influence, they were the dominate forces of the Empire.
But you are correct. The British and French (mostly) created the "Peace to End All Peace" (A book I could not finish, but with a very appropriate title), in the area.
That's what happens when you let foreign ministry types craft the terms of ending a war, instead of the "Admiralties" and "War Departments". Our own State Department being a prime example of such an effect.
