Abstract

The attention of the European Powers to the Red Sea goes back to the 16th century. After the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869, this attention had been transformed into a rivalry that was extended to the south of the Red Sea and the Bab-ul-Mendeb Strait. There were strategically important two areas: the land of Sheikh Said and Fersan islands where the British Empire had been in control from the beginning of 19th century and in constant contention with France, Germany and Italy since 1870. The official owner of the region, the Ottoman Empire, tried to prevent the European Powers getting control of the region as well as the rebellion of local people.

Özet

Avrupa devletlerinin Kızıldeniz'e olan ilgileri onaltıncı yüzyıla kadar uzanır. Ondokuzuncu yüzyılda, özellikle Süveyş kanalının 1869 yılında açılmasından sonra bu ilgi, devletler arası rekabet ve mücadeleye dönüşmüştür. Rekabet alanlarından birisi de Kızıldeniz'in güneyi ve Babülmendeb boğazı olmuştu. Yemen'de bulunan Şeyh Said arazisi ve Fersan adaları stratejik değer kazanan iki önemli noktaydı. İngiltere'nin yüzyılın başından beri yerleştiği bu bölgeye 1870'ten sonra Fransa, Almanya ve İtalya da yerleşmeye çalışmışlardı. Bölgede söz sahibi olan Osmanlı devleti, bu isteklerin yanında yerel isyanlara karşı da mücadele etmek zorunda kalmıştır. İmparatorluğun dağılmasından hemen önce, sınırlarında yaşanan bu rekabetten Osmanlı devleti galip çıkmıştı.
