 EASTERN QUESTION - LoveToKnow Article on EASTERN QUESTION
The RussoTurkish War of 187778 followed, concluded by the treaty of San Stefano, the terms of which were modified in Turkeys favor by the congress of Berlin (1878), which marks the beginning of the later phase of the Eastern Question.
The belief in the imminent collapse of the Ottoman dominion was weakened almost to extinction; so was the belief, which inspired the treaty of 1856, in the capacity of Turkey to reform and develop itself on European lines.
The Eastern Question, however, slumbered until, in 1851, the matter of the Holy Places was raised by Napoleon III., involving the whole question of the influence in Ottoman affairs of France under the capitulations of 1740 and of Russia under the treaty of 1774.

The Treaty of Kuchuk Kainarji, signed in 1774, was more than a blow to Ottoman pride; it demonstrated that Ottoman military technology and methods of warfare were outdated.
This treaty deprived them of most of their European territories, including Bulgaria, which was enlarged to include Macedonia and Thrace.
Under the treaty the Ottoman Empire was, for the first time, forced to relinquish territory it had long held under its control.

In the Treaty of Belgrade (1739), Azov was ceded to Russia along with a section of the Black Sea steppe between the Donets and Bug rivers, but the Russians had to raze the fortifications at Azov and were not permitted to have any ships on the Black Sea.

A treaty between her and Frederick was drawn, Maria Teresa agreeing to Frederick's hold on Silesia except for parts of southern Silesia called Jagerndorf and Troppau, which Frederick agreed would go to the Habsburgs.
The agreement was signed in September, in the town of Worms, on the Rhine River, and became known as the Treaty of Worms.
Frederick was happy to have France as an ally against Habsburg hostility, and in signing a defensive treaty with the French he promised to cast his vote for their friend, Charles Albert of Bavaria, rather than for Francis Stephen, for emperor.

Following a war that broke out with the Ottoman Empire in 1768, the parties agreed to the Treaty of Kuchuk-Kainarji in 1774.
By that treaty, Russia acquired an outlet to the Black Sea, and the Crimean Tatars were made independent of the Ottomans.
The terms of the treaty fell far short of the goals of Catherine's reputed "Greek project"--the expulsion of the Ottomans from Europe and the renewal of a Byzantine Empire under Russian control.

The Treaty of Berlin was the final Act of the Congress of Berlin (June 13-July 13, 1878), by which the United Kingdom, Austria-Hungary, France, Germany, Italy, Russia and Turkey revised the Treaty of San Stefano signed on March 3 of the same year.

They were able to cite, in support of their objections, Article 23 of the Kuchuk-Kainarji Treaty of 1774, in which Turkish suzerainty over all Georgia had been recognized by Russia.
The treaty was to remain in force permanently and any modification was to be made only by the voluntary consent of both parties.
The treaty stipulated also the stationing in Georgia of two battalions of Russian infantry with four guns and the eventual recovery by force of arms of Georgia’s ancient territories now in possession of the Ottomans.

 Russian Foreign Policy at the Threshold of the Third Millennium
NATO's bombing of Serb positions in Bosnia is a violation of the North Atlantic Treaty itself, for not one of the sides in the conflict was in the state of war with a member of NATO nor did they pose a threat to a NATO member.
The expansion of NATO will ultimately change the already undermined military and strategic symmetries and configurations that emerged from the Treaty on the limitation of conventional forces (the CFE treaty), for the correlation in arms alone is becoming 2:1 in favor of NATO with the entry of some East European states.
If the START-2 Treaty is ratified and Poland enters NATO, then from its territory, nuclear missiles can be delivered all the way to St.Petersburg using howitzers and all the way to Moscow using cruise missiles.

 Albania - RELIGION
The situation of the Orthodox adherents improved temporarily after the Treaty of Kuchuk-Kainarji (1774), in which Russia was recognized as the protector of the Orthodox followers in the Ottoman Empire.
The most effective method employed by the Ottoman Turks in their missionary efforts, especially in the central and southern parts of the country, was the creation of a titled Muslim class of pashas and beys who were endowed with both large estates and extensive political and administrative powers.
Pressure was put on this group because the Ottoman Turks considered its members sympathetic to Orthodox Russia.

Tsar Nikolai I objected that Russia was the true defender of Christianity in the East, that such a protectorate existed by the Treaty of Kuchuk Kainarji (1774), and that Greek Orthodox were by far the majority Christians (ten million) in the East.
The subsequent Treaty of Paris did much to set back Russian expansionism by almost a hundred years, but Aleksandr I viewed this as a temporary reversal and a "blot on his reign".
The Ottoman empire was decisively beaten, and by the Treaty of San Stefano in 1878, it recognised the independence or autonomy of Serbia, Montenegro, Bulgaria and Romania.

 The Greek Revolution and the Greek State
When the 1774 Treaty of Kuchuk Kainarji opened the Turkish straits to Russian commerce, there were not enough Russian ships to meet that country's export needs: the treaty allowed Ottoman Greeks to register their ships in Russia, and so they benefitted from the new rules.
Between 1529 and 1774 only ships under Ottoman registry could navigate in the isolated waters of the Black Sea, so Greek trade there grew without competition from the Venetians.
Anglo-French naval warfare during the Napoleonic Wars also cleared the seas for Greek ships: most Western merchant ships found the Mediterranean too dangerous.
