The Three Pashas
Talaat Pasha
Enver Pasha
Djemal Pasha
The Three Pashas,[1] also known as the Young Turk triumvirate[2][3] or CUP triumvirate,[4] consisted of Mehmed Talaat Pasha, the Grand Vizier (prime minister) and Minister of the Interior; Ismail Enver Pasha, the Minister of War and Commander-in-Chief to the Sultan; and Ahmed Djemal Pasha, the Minister of the Navy and governor-general of Syria, who effectively ruled the Ottoman Empire after the 1913 Ottoman coup d'état and the subsequent assassination of Mahmud Shevket Pasha.
The Three Pashas, all members of the Central Committee of the Committee of Union and Progress, were largely responsible for the Empire's entry into World War I in 1914 on the side of the Central Powers and also largely responsible for the genocide of some one million Armenians. The Turkish public has widely criticised the Three Pashas for drawing the Ottoman Empire into World War I and its subsequent defeat.[5] All three met violent deaths after the war—Talaat and Cemal were assassinated by Dashnaks, whilst Enver died leading the Basmachi Revolt near Dushanbe, present-day Tajikistan.
After their deaths, Talaat and Enver's remains have been reburied at the Monument of Liberty in Istanbul[6][7] and many of Turkey's streets have been controversially renamed in their honour.[8]
