Abstract

The Ottoman Empire was waging fierce wars on its various western and eastern fronts at the beginning of the seventeenth century, and with the apparent decline in the management of its various institutions, it seemed as if it was losing control over all its provinces, especially in the Levant, where political and military chaos prevailed. Some aspirants took advantage of these conditions, and several revolutions broke out in the region, foremost of which was the revolution of Ali Pasha Jan Bolad in Aleppo in the year 1605-1607 AD, which divided the Levant on its impact between supporters of the Ottoman Empire and its opponents. The revolution led to clear political goals, internal organization, and real external support, in addition to the popular support, which led to its failure and the speedy elimination of it, despite Ali Pasha''s courage in declaring his hostility to the Ottoman Empire, which still had the necessary strength to quell any A revolution breaks out against it in Anatolia or the Levant, because it is on the path of the forces heading to the eastern front in Iran.
