The 18th century saw a precipitous drop in Ottoman power, according to ThoughtCo. The previous few decades of the 1600s had been dominated by a string of wars with Russia, via Encyclopedia Britannica, and those conflicts persisted through the 1700s and 1800s. During the Crimean War, Russia, Britain, and France vied for influence in the Middle East and especially the Ottoman Empire, per the UK National Archives. Tsar Nicholas I saw an opportunity to put the "sick man of Europe" out of his misery and in 1853, Russia launched an assault on Ottoman forces. France and Britain entered the fray, engaging Russia in battle.

Uprisings rocked the Ottoman Empire in the late 1800s century, and the increasingly weakened sick man limped into the 20th century. During WWI, it backed the wrong horse, aligning itself with the Central Powers. History writes that the Ottoman Empire officially ended in 1922 when the title of sultan came to an end. So now we understand how the Ottoman cookie crumbled. It was also understood a long, long time ago, but it's understood now, too.
