Abdülhamid Han (2.Abdülhamid) - Padişahlar Serisi Defter
Abdulhamid Khan , who had all the characteristics of the Ottoman family, was not in a position like his ancestors when he came to the throne. On the contrary, he became the head of a state that was about to collapse. He knew this. With his speech in the first days of his accession to the throne, he ignited national feelings and reduced the public's reaction to the palace. The people made peace with the palace. He must have realized long ago that the economic crisis that the state was in would not go away in a short time, so he started a major construction and education campaign in the country. This was not an instant solution, but an ingenious future investment.
He stood as tall as possible against imperialism and the Jewish lobby. Realizing that wars were no longer fought with swords and guns, Abdulhamid Khan made such strategic moves that the enemy states eventually realized that they could not easily do what they wanted as long as Abdulhamid was on the throne. They dethroned him with all kinds of tricks and deceit. This is how they were written into history. But Sultan Abdulhamid II went down in history as "the hero who never bowed to imperialism and fought until the last moment for his homeland and nation rather than the throne."
