The Treaty of Sèvres, 1920 - Turkey

The Treaty of Sèvres failed. It was a harsh treaty made for Turkey. Turkey was a tricky country to deal with. It's position on the map was very valuable as it could control the straits running in the Black Sea. This treaty considered to equal  the harshness of the treaty of Versailles

TERMS:

• Turkey was to give Smyrna to Greece.
• Syria, Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco were to become mandates under the protection and control of Britain and France.
• A cap of 50,000 soldiers, seven sailboats and six torpedo boats was made for Turkey's army

MORE INFORMATION:

1. The Turks were outraged by the harshness of the treaty. 
2. Mustafa Kemal and the nationalists riskily decided to protest against the treaty. By force, they drove the Greeks in Smyrna that had moved there after the treaty.
3. The TREATY OF LAUSANNE was created in 1923 which allowed Turkey to have Smyrna back. 
4. The reason why this treaty was allowed, and why Turkey was so furious was because they were punished much more than they deserved; they did not deserve to be punished as harshly as Germany. It was a suspicious treaty: Britain and France could have made it harsh for self interest, for the reason of increasing their own empire.
