Everything about Treaty Of Adrianople totally explained
The
Peace Treaty of Adrianople (also called the
Treaty of Edirne) concluded the
Russo-Turkish War, 1828-1829 between
Russia and the
Ottoman Empire. It was signed on
September 14,
1829 in
Adrianople by Russia's Count
Aleksey Orlov and by Turkey's Abdul Kadyr-bey. The Ottoman Empire gave Russia access to the mouths of the
Danube and the fortresses of
Akhaltsikhe and
Akhalkalaki in
Georgia. The Sultan recognized Russia's possession of Georgia (with
Imeretia,
Mingrelia,
Guria) and of the Khanates of
Erivan and
Nakhichevan which had been ceded to the tsar by
Persia in the
Treaty of Turkmenchay a year earlier. The treaty opened the
Dardanelles to all commercial vessels, thus liberating commerce for cereals, live stocks and wood, although it took the
Treaty of Hünkâr İskelesi (
1833) to settle the Straits Question between the signatories. The Sultan reguaranteed the previously promised autonomy to
Serbia, promised autonomy for
Greece, and allowed Russia to occupy
Moldavia and
Wallachia until the Ottoman Empire had paid a large indemnity.
