Which development lead to World War I spreading to the middle east

The Ottoman Empire called for a jihad (holy war) against its enemies.

Explanation:

The Ottoman Empire had great influence in the Middle East before the outbreak of World War I. Much of the area was under Ottoman rule. The Ottoman Empire welcomed the beginning of the war on the side of Germany and Austria-Hungary. The Ottomans called for a holy war against the enemy. The English knew that the Ottomans could be a powerful ally to Germany. That is why they started deploying their troops in Basra, an area not far from the Euphrates and Tigris' mouth. The Ottomans tried to thwart British actions with attacks but without success. The British tried to transfer the fight to the sea, but that attempt was unsuccessful. When we talk about the front in the Middle East, it is necessary to mention the Gallipoli campaign and the Ottoman troops' great success.

The Indians were at war with British troops. They were concerned that the Ottoman call for holy war could have a strong repercussion in Pakistan and could threaten the entire country. As the war progressed, the Ottoman Empire fell more and more into the abyss. The fight with the British was in vain. Even with Germany's help, the Ottoman Empire could not have enough resources to continue the struggle. The British, on the other hand, had enormous capacities. The end of the war meant the elimination of Ottoman influence from the Middle East. It also meant the creation of some new states that gained independence. There was also a strengthening of British influence in that part of the world.

the beginning of the iditarod trail sled dog race. the iditarod trail sled dog race first ran to nome in 1973.   the trail they used is today known as the iditarod trail, first surveyed by the alaska road commission in 1908 and now one of the national historic trails as so designated by the congress of the united states.

what inspired

the children of nome were dying in january 1925. infected with diphtheria, they wheezed and gasped for air, and every day brought a new case of the lethal respiratory disease. nome’s lone physician, dr. curtis welch, feared an epidemic that could put the entire village of 1,400 at risk. he ordered a quarantine but knew that only an antitoxin serum could ward off the fast-spreading disease.the nearest batch of the life-saving medicine, however, rested more than 1,000 miles away in anchorage. nome’s ice-choked harbor made sea transport impossible, and open-cockpit airplanes could not fly in alaska’s subzero temperatures. with the nearest train station nearly 700 miles away in nenana, canine power offered nome its best hope for a speedy delivery.sled dogs regularly beat alaska’s snowy trails to deliver mail, and the territory’s governor, scott c. bone, recruited the best drivers and dog teams to stage a round-the-clock relay to transport the serum from nenana to nome. on the night of january 27, 1925, a train whistle pierced nenana’s stillness as it arrived with the precious cargo—a 20-pound package of serum wrapped in protective fur. musher “wild bill” shannon tied the parcel to his sled. as he gave the signal, the paws of shannon’s nine malamutes pounded the snow-packed trail on the first steps of a 674-mile “great race of mercy” through rugged wilderness, across frozen waterways and over treeless tundra.even by alaskan standards, this winter night packed extra bite, with temperatures plummeting to 60 degrees below zero fahrenheit. although every second was precious as the number of confirmed cases in nome mounted, shannon knew he needed to control his speed. if his dogs ran too fast and breathed too deeply in such frigid conditions, they could frost their lungs and die of exposure. although shannon ran next to the sled to raise his own body temperature, he still developed hypothermia and frostbite on the 52-mile leg to tolovana before handing off the serum to the second dog team.
