	Ottoman Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		With the territorial expansion of the Mongol Empire to the west, the Kayı became a puppet and vassal of the Il Khanate of the Mongols.
		The initial cease-fire agreement was the Armistice of Mudros; under the terms of the subsequent Treaty of Sèvres the empire was to submit to partition under the mandate of the British and French, and formally recognise the Democratic Republic of Armenia (the terms of this treaty were superseded by the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne).
		Ultimately, the Ottoman Empire's relatively high degree of tolerance for ethnic differences proved to be one of its greatest strengths in integrating the new regions until the rise of nationalism (this non-assimilative policy became a weakness during the dissolution of the empire that neither the first or second parliaments could successfully address).

	OFFICERS - Online Information article about OFFICERS
		In the 16th century an officer was a lieutenant of, not in, a particular regiment, and the higher officers were general, lieutenant-general and major-general of a particular army.
		On first joining his unit the young officer is put through a course of preliminary drills, lasting, as a rule, for from three months (infantry) to six months (cavalry), though the time depends upon the individual officer's rate of progress.
		Schools and Colleges.—The training of the officer in his regiment is necessarily incomplete, owing to a far wider knowledge of his profession in general, and of his own branch of the service in particular, being essential, than can be acquired within the comparatively confined limits of his own unit.
