Edhem Pasha (Template:Langx; 1844–1909) was an Ottoman Turkish field marshal and leading figure in the propagation of the Ottoman military doctrine.[1]
Life and career
Edhem was born to a Muslim Turkish family in Trabzon which was then part of the Ottoman Empire. He was the deputy of Osman Nuri Pasha during the Siege of Plevna in 1877. He was the leading commander of the Ottoman army that defeated the Greek army on the Thessalian front during the Greco-Turkish War (1897), which would end in a decisive Ottoman victory. Edhem Pasha was especially successful in the Battle of Domokos on the front. He captured Larissa and Trikala, but other European states intervened in favor of Greece because of the danger that the Ottomans again could once again capture the rest of the Morea. As a result, the Greco-Ottoman War resulted in a strategic stalemate despite the Ottoman military victory on the field. Edhem Pasha died in Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul) in 1909.[1]
