1. balkan wars

   The Balkan Wars refer to two conflicts that took place in the southeastern region of Europe known as the Balkans in the early 20th century. The First Balkan War occurred in 1912 and 1913, when the Balkan League (comprising of Serbia, Greece, Bulgaria, and Montenegro) fought against the Ottoman Empire for control over territory in the region. The Second Balkan War happened quickly afterwards in 1913, primarily fought between Bulgaria and its former allies Serbia and Greece, along with Romania and the Ottoman Empire. The wars were pivotal in reshaping the map of the Balkans, and foreshadowed the complexities of alliances and ethnic tensions that would lead into World War I.

1. Balkan Wars

   The Balkan Wars were two conflicts that took place in the Balkan Peninsula in south-eastern Europe in 1912 and 1913. By the early 20th century, Bulgaria, Greece, Montenegro and Serbia had achieved independence from the Ottoman Empire, but large parts of their ethnic populations remained under Ottoman rule. In 1912, these countries formed the Balkan League. The First Balkan War broke out when the League attacked the Ottoman Empire on 8 October 1912 and was ended seven months later by the Treaty of London. After five centuries, the Ottoman Empire lost virtually all of its possessions in the Balkans. The Second Balkan War broke out on 16 June 1913. Bulgaria was dissatisfied over the division of the spoils in Macedonia, made in secret by its former allies, Serbia and Greece, and attacked them. The Serbian and Greek armies repulsed the Bulgarian offensive and counter-attacked into Bulgaria, while Romania and the Ottoman Empire also attacked Bulgaria and gained territory. In the resulting Treaty of Bucharest, Bulgaria lost most of the territories it had gained in the First Balkan War.
