1913 Ottoman coup d'état | The 1913 Ottoman coup d'état ( January 23 , 1913 ) , also known as the Raid on the Sublime Porte ( Bâb-ı Âlî Baskını ) , was a coup d'état carried out in the Ottoman Empire by a number of Committee of Union and Progress ( CUP ) members led by Ismail Enver Bey and Mehmed Talaat Bey , in which the group made a surprise raid on the central Ottoman government buildings , the Sublime Porte ( Bâb-ı Âlî ) . During the coup , the Minister of the Navy Nazım Pasha was assassinated and the Grand Vizier , Kâmil Pasha , was forced to resign . After the coup , the government fell into the hands of the Committee of Union and Progress , now under the leadership of the triumvirate known as the `` Three Pashas '' , made up of Enver , Talaat , and Djemal Pasha . In 1911 , the Freedom and Accord Party ( also known as the Liberal Union or Liberal Entente ) , Kâmil Pasha 's party , was formed in opposition to the CUP and almost immediately won the by-elections in Istanbul . Alarmed , the CUP rigged the general elections of 1912 with electoral fraud and violence against Freedom and Accord , earning them the nickname `` Election of Clubs '' ( Sopalı Seçimler ) . In response , the Savior Officers ( Halâskâr Zâbitân ) of the army , partisans of Freedom and Accord determined to see the CUP fall , rose up in anger and caused the fall of the CUP 's post-election Mehmed Said Pasha government . A new government was formed under Ahmed Muhtar Pasha , but it too was dissolved after a few months in October 1912 after the sudden outbreak of the First Balkan War . After gaining the permission of sultan Mehmed V to form a new government in late October 1912 , Freedom and Accord leader Kâmil Pasha sat down to diplomatic talks with Bulgaria after the unsuccessful First Balkan War . With the Bulgarian demand for the cession of the former Ottoman capital city of Edirne ( Adrianople ) looming and the outrage among the Turkish populace as well as the CUP leadership , the CUP carried out the raid on the Sublime Porte . After the coup , opposition parties like Freedom and Accord were subject to heavy repression and their leaders arrested or exiled to Europe , while many CUP members were put into power . Coup leader Enver Bey ( later Pasha ) , soon to be Minister of War , withdrew the Ottoman Empire from the ongoing London Peace Conference and moved it closer to Germany ahead of World War I. |
