Osmanlı Bahriye Teşkilâtında Reform Çabaları (1876-1922)
The Attempts to Reform the Ottoman Naval Organization (1876-1922)

Summary/Abstract: During the last half century of the Empire, the Ottoman Naval Organization was divided into many departments, commissions and branches upon the breakthroughs in both international navy and internal dynamics. The departments and commissions of admiralty of the Hamidian Era went through changes under the influence of English admirals in the Second Constitutional period. However, this new program could not be operated as a result of war periods and of its dislocating the position of the old systems. In 1916 the new program of the naval organization took its final shape. The purpose of this article is to explain the changes in the Ottoman Naval Organization in the last fifty years and to give the reasons of these changes.
