On this day (13 November, 1918 CE ), allied troops from the UK, France & Italy occupied Constantinople after the Ottoman defeat in World War 1.

The Treaty of Lausanne signed on July 24, 1923 CE brought an official end to the occupation.

It was also in fact the first time the Ottomans did not have control over Istanbul/ Constantinople since its conquest by Fatih Sultan Mehmet Han in May 1453 CE.
