Answer 1

After its defeat in World War I, the Ottoman Empire carried out a campaign of genocide against Armenian communities.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Ottoman Empire, after its defeat in World War I, did not give up control of its African and Middle Eastern territories to the European Allies. Instead, it embarked on a campaign of genocide against Armenian communities that did not support the war. Turkish forces drove hundreds of thousands of Armenians from their homes, resulting in the deaths of approximately one million Armenians.
