title: Counsils in the Ottoman-Russian and Austrian Wars of 1787-1792
abstract: After the 1774 Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca, disputes—particularly with Russia over the treaty’s implementation—and shifts in the European balance of power led to a marked increase in assemblies held in the Ottoman capital. These meetings intensified during the Ottoman–Russian and Austrian War of 1787–1792, both at the center and on the battlefronts. This study examines such assemblies within the framework of Ottoman centralized decision-making, focusing on their administrative functioning. Recorded
