There’s a whole hall at Versailles with paintings commemorating great French victories. Of course it ends with Wagram in 1809.

“We Turks remember and talk about that period through the Gallipoli victory and the triumph of the siege of Kut al-Amara. The devastating defeat of 1918, on the other hand, is still being interpreted as the ‘treason’ of the authorities at the time...”

That means that the Turks think that they’re entitled to reconquer their old empire because it ‘rightly’ belongs to them.
