The heavy losses of the Ottoman army meant that every day more and more dependants lost theirbreadwinners. When the breadwinner had gone to war, was wounded or died at the front; the wives, daughters, sisters and mothers they had left behindwere faced with two options: to find work and make a living, or to starve to death…On 14 August 1916, the Committee of Union and Progress (Ittihâd ve Terakkî Cemiyeti), the ruling party of the Ottoman Empire, established a newsociety under the leadership of one of its leading figures: Vice-Commander and Minister of War, Enver Pasa.
