Before World War I, the Ottoman Empire lost several territories due to a series of conflicts and nationalist movements. Key regions that gained independence or were ceded included Greece (1830), Serbia (1878), Montenegro (1878), and Bulgaria (1908). Additionally, Libya was lost to Italy in the Italo-Turkish War (1911-1912), and the Balkan Wars (1912-1913) resulted in further territorial losses, including parts of Macedonia and Thrace. These events significantly weakened the empire prior to the war.

i do not think so... the great powers from Western Europe had colonies (like France, England, Holland and so on).. i think a country must be a naval power and also to have a strong army to be able to have colonies, which Bulgaria was not. And the run for colonies started much earlier before Bulgaria was independent (1878) my opinion: Bulgaria did not have colonies

Yes, the Berlin Congress and the Berlin Conference are related in that they both refer to significant diplomatic meetings held in Berlin, but they focus on different historical contexts. The Berlin Conference of 1884-1885 was primarily about the partition of Africa among European powers, establishing rules for colonization. In contrast, the Berlin Congress of 1878 addressed the issues arising from the Russo-Turkish War and aimed to settle territorial disputes in the Balkans. Both events reflect the geopolitical dynamics of their respective eras.
