For the 19th century Ottoman Empire, there was a period in which problems were concentrated. During this period, the Ottoman Empire, on the one hand, was trying to prevent the activities of other states against the Gulf and at the same time had to deal with the local actors. All Western powers, especially Britain, were interested in the Persian Gulf and military, political, cultural and diplomatic means. Unlike other states, the US's interest in the Gulf goes back to the foundation of the US, as a matter of fact. Towards the end of the century, American naval merchants began to be seen in the Gulf. Therefore, the Ottoman State's close interest in the region can be considered not only as a requirement of the reforms, but also as a reaction to the actors, including the Wahhabis. In this study of the Ottoman Empire, we hope to understand its policies towards the Gulf in the 19th century and the developments of the region and contribute to the fact that Gulf history is more understandable in terms of social and political aspects.
