The immediate cause of the war involved the rights of Christian minorities in the Holy Land, which was a part of the Ottoman Empire. The French promoted the rights of Roman Catholics, while Russia promoted those of the Eastern Orthodox Church. The longer-term causes involved the decline of the Ottoman Empire and the unwillingness of Britain and France to allow Russia to gain territory and power at the Ottoman Empire´s expense. It has widely been noted that the causes, in one case involving an argument over a key,[10] revealed a "great confusion of purpose", yet they led to a war noted for its "notoriously incompetent international butchery".[11]" - (en.wikipedia.org 12.07.2020)
