Covered what happened in the lands of the Ottoman empire 1918-1922, including the civil wars, population exchanges, clashes between Greeks, Armenians, Kurds, Arabs, Turks and probably most importantly the rise of Turkish (as opposed to Ottoman) Nationalism. Another awful story full of regret for a lost, more civilised, pre-war age (a myth, too, of course). I need to go to the dentist today for a root canal, hopefully the last trip for a while but blimey it's bringing me down.
