C. Treaty of Lausanne
D. Treaty of Constantinople

Answer 1

Answer:

Treaty of Constantinople (1832

Answer 2

Answer:

D. Treaty of Constantinople recognized Greece as an independent nation.

Explanation:

• The Treaty of Sevres was a 1920 treaty signed between the World War I allies and the Ottoman Empire. The treaty ceded most of the Ottoman territory to France, Great Britain, Greece, and Italy, creating large occupied territories within the Ottoman Empire.
• The Treaty of Versailles is one of the most controversial armistices in history. The so-called "war liability" clause of the treaty placed full responsibility for World War I on Germany and other central powers. This meant loss of territory, reduction of troops, and payment of reparations to the Allies.
• The Treaty of Lausanne was signed on July 24, 1923, after a seven-month conference in Lausanne, Switzerland. The treaty recognised Turkey's modern state borders. Turkey did not claim the former Arab provinces, but did recognise British control of Cyprus and Italian control of the Dodecanese.
• The great powers ratified the terms of the Treaty of Constantinople on the borders of Greece and the Ottoman Empire with the Protocol of London on August 30, 1832. This ended the Greek War of Independence and showed modern Greece as an independent state liberated from the Ottoman Empire.
