19. yüzyıl Afrika’nın büyük güçlerin odak noktası haline gelmesi açısından önemli bir dönemdir. Birleşik Krallık, Fransa, Portekiz ve Osmanlı gibi büyük güçler kıtada söz sahibi olmak istemiş ve aralarında çekişme yaşamışlardır. Bu çekişmenin yoğunlaşmasında Süveyş Kanalı oldukça etkili olmuştur. Nitekim, Afrika’yı Akdeniz’e bağlayan Süveyş kanalı jeopolitik açıdan büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu doğrultuda, Süveyş kanalının açılmasının proje olarak gündeme gelmesiyle birlikte büyük güçler arasında jeopolitik bir çatışma meydana gelmiştir. Çalışma Süveyş Kanalı’nın 19. yüzyılda Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun Afrika’daki varlığını ne yönde etkilediğini analiz etmektedir. Çalışmanın ilk kısmı 19. yüzyılda Afrika kıtasının önemi ve Osmanlı’nın Afrika ile olan etkileşimini incelemektedir. İkinci kısım Süveyş Kanalı’nın açılmasına giden sürecin değerlendirmesini yapmaktadır. Üçüncü ve son kısım ise Osmanlı ekseninde bir değerlendirme ile Süveyş Kanalı’nın açılmasının büyük güçleri ne yönde etkilediğini analiz etmektedir. Sonuç olarak, çalışma kanalın açılmasının diğer büyük güçlerin ilgisini arttırması ve bölgede nüfuz kurma isteğinin bir sonucu olarak Osmanlı’nın gerileme ve dağılma sürecini hızlandırdığı bulgusuna ulaşmıştır.
The 19th century is an important period in terms of Africa becoming the great powers’ focal point. Great powers such as the United Kingdom, France, Portugal, and the Ottoman Empire wanted to have influence in the continent and had conflicts between them. The Suez Canal was very effective in intensifying this conflict. As a matter of fact, the Suez Canal, which connects Africa to the Mediterranean, is of great geopolitical importance. In this direction, with the opening of the Suez Canal on the agenda as a project, a geopolitical conflict occurred between the great powers. The study analyzes how the Suez Canal affected the Ottoman Empire’s presence in Africa in the 19th century. The first part of the study examines the importance of the African continent in the 19th century and the Ottoman interaction with Africa. The second part evaluates the process leading to the opening of the Suez Canal. The third and last part analyzes how the opening of the Suez Canal affected the great powers with an evaluation on the Ottoman axis. As a result, it found that the opening of the canal accelerated the decline and disintegration of the Ottoman Empire because of increasing the interest of other great powers and the desire to establish influence in the region.
