Abstract

The First World War has been a major event in the modern history of the Balkans because (i) it created the largest battlefront that the world had seen in the area; (ii) it broke up the Ottoman Empire; (iii) it strengthened nation states; and (iv) it created millions of refugees. In addition, during that time the genocide of the Armenians took place, arguably one of the least known genocides in history.
