TURKEY-HISTORY-WWI-GALLIPOLI
(From L) Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, Britain's Prince of Wales, Prince Charles, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and Turkmenistan President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov attend the commemoration ceremony marking the 100th anniversary of the start of the Battle of Gallipoli, on April 24, 2015 at the Turkish Canakkake Martyr's Memorial (Mehmetcik Abidesi). A century ago, Allied troops waded ashore on the Gallipoli peninsula at the start of an ill-fated land campaign to wrest the Dardanelles Strait from the Ottoman Empire. The disastrous World War I battle began on April 25, 1915, and pitted troops from countries including Australia, Britain, France and New Zealand against the Ottoman forces backed by Germany.
