The Fall of the Khilafah

The Middle East often feels like a sidebar in world history—what drew Rogan to highlight its crucial role during the Great War and how does that reshape our understanding of the conflict?

The internal struggles and decisions within the Ottoman leadership felt complex and sometimes unpredictable. How did those choices influence the empire's ultimate collapse?

The book weaves together battles and diplomacy seamlessly. I'm curious about Rogan's process in integrating these aspects without overwhelming the reader.
