The Causes Holding of Congress of Berlin From the Viewpoint of the Anglophone Historiography

Authors

The Congress of Berlin is one of the most important diplomatic events that occurred in Europe and especially on the Balkans. Since it happened, it has been studied and analyzed until today. Its consequences are still fresh in this part of Europe. In this paper, we will see the causes that have occurred by the holding of this congress from the viewpoint of the Anglophone historiography. First, we will see the origin of the Eastern Question at the Anglophone historiography, what it means, when it started and how it is important to understand their approach to this issue from different viewpoints. Further on we will see the continuities of the Eastern Questions between them, especially between the Crimea War and the crisis of 1875-1878 and how this last one was a continuity of the Crimea crisis. Then we will see how this crisis went, the diplomatic developments for its solution until the Russo-Ottoman War of 1877-1878 and its outcome – the Treaty of Saint Stefano. I have finished this paper by looking at the reaction of the Great Powers of this treaty and their agreement for its full review in a European congress.
