Balkan Wars

Balkan Wars were the two wars fought over the last European territories of the Ottoman Empire during 1912-13. Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece, and Montenegro forced Turkey to give up Albania and Macedonia in 1912, leaving the area around Constantinople (now Istanbul) as the only Ottoman territory in Europe. In 1913, Bulgaria disputed with Serbia, Greece, and Romania for possession of Macedonia, which was ultimately partitioned between Greece and Serbia.
