As today, Middle East was not just only a geographical region to define its location in the world era for Britain. The 19 th century was the base of the British interests in the Middle East, with the increasing economic resources during the fall of the Ottoman Empire. It is equally clear that one of the significant aspects of British policy towards the Porte was the status of Christian subjects under the Turkish rule in addition to economic and political underpinnings. Subsequent to Crimean War, Britain had developed a strong intimacy with the Ottoman Empire which was based on mutual trust and friendship. Besides, she started to expand the empire by acquiring the Middle Eastern regions at the same time. This study will try to analyse this transform of the British Empire from the guardian to the heir of the Ottoman Empire in the Middle East. The analysis of the process will be based on the British imperialism towards the Middle East from the 19 th century until the establishment of the Republic of Turkey subsequent to the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. Basically, the reasons of why the British rule aimed to rule Aden Wharf, Cyprus, Egypt, Iraq, Palestine and Transjordan will be particularly examined in order to prove the main analysis. On the other hand, this research would not simply address the Anglo-Ottoman relations or the British influence over the relations between the Sublime Porte and the Arabs.
Although the Falklands War was one of the shortest conflicts in the world's history; it had extensive effects on the British society and culture which is still controversial in some ways. Particularly, the cultural impacts were much more substantial. Furthermore, in conjunction with the opportunities of technology, apart from the other wars in the past, television brought the reality of the war to homes and people's lives. There is also little doubt that Margaret Thatcher was in favour of using television's power in order to influence the public in some ways whose reputation and confidence were boosted with the success in the Falklands War. This research will attempt to assess the television as an illusion or a tool in order to determine these cultural and remarkable effects to the whole of the society as well as the people. Furthermore, the study will focus on the language of transcription from the television to the people seem to be the most essential tool to inspire the society. Besides, there is little doubt that framing the Falklands War on the television offered the opportunity to show war's effects on society and the culture of the British people.
