At first, I didn't find this war that interesting, but as I started to read more about it, I became more drawn in to learn more. It interested me when the Wikipedia for this war said, "In the long-term historical perspective, this marked a seminal event in the collapse of the Ottoman Empire." This interested me because I've heard that the Ottoman Empire used to be a big empire that rules over many regions including the Greek. It's hard to imagine how one war could cause the collapse of such a grand empire.
