Exodus ludności muzułmańskiej do azjatyckiej części Imperium Osmańskiego w następstwie pierwszej i drugiej wojny bałkańskiej (1912–1913)
The exodus of the Muslim population to the Asian part of the Ottoman Empire in the aftermath of the First and Second Balkan Wars (1912–1913)

Summary/Abstract: The Balkan Wars of 1912–1913 ended in a catastrophe for the Ottoman Empire. As a result of military operations, 80% of European territory inhabited by the population of four millions were irretrievably lost. A large number of Muslim refugees appeared in the Asian part of the Empire during and after the military operations. This fact was used by the High Porte to change demographic relations in Thrace and Anatolia. These activities led to construction of a homogeneous state and significantly contributed to economic changes in the areas subjected to the settlement. In the national dimension, they contributed to the development of Turkish nationalism.
