The Ottoman state was isolated from the public as its economic participation in the development of the inns, hospital, libraries, or indeed as explained before every function was dependent on public cooperation, and this made their economic system completely dependent on the people. The Ottomans failed to adapt their system to the changes of the 19th century. They also didn’t adapt to use modern taxation methods and utility investments weren’t modernized. When trade routes changed in the area, the Ottoman empire lost its main source of income. The economy of the empire was lesser than its counterparts and paved the way for the end of the empire.

To be exact 5,933,900 Jewish people were killed. The Nazi party, founded in 1919 and led by Adolf Hitler, gave political expressions to theories of racism.

In 1879, German journalist Wilhelm Marr originated the term antisemitism, denoting the hatred of Jews and also hatred of various liberal. Cosmopolitan, and international political of the 18 and 19 centuries.

Zionism Zionism is a Jewish national movement that has had as its goal the creation and support of a Jewish national state in Palestine, the ancient homeland of the Jews. Zionism originated in Central and Eastern Europe in the latter part of the 19th century. The Jews originally had Palestine but they got taken out of it. Theodor Herzl made a political turn on Zionism by arguing that Jews are pressured to form a nation that they could live a normal life by concentration in one area. In 1897, the first Zionist congress meeting was held in Basel, Switzerland. It continued to meet every year until 1901 where they met every two years. Zionists tried to get land from the Ottoman government, but they rejected the request. They then asked Great Britain for help. Britain offered them land in Uganda, but they refused because they wanted Palestine. There was propaganda for a place in Palestine for Jews by Britain's League of Nations.
