The Ottoman Empire’s declining international power and conservative tyranny led to a resurgence of a desire for modernization among idealistic Turkish exiles and young army officers in Istanbul, the capital. The possession of colonies became important for political and diplomatic reasons and a militaristic drive for national power and prestige increased the speed and ferocity of the New Imperialism.
