Take the following as truth: Sultan Abdul Hamid II (1876 1909) tried to apply absolute rule to an empire staggering under a crushing foreign debt, with a fragmented population of hostile people, and succeeded only in creating ill will and dissatisfaction amongst the younger generation of educated Turks.
Then the following statement: "The population was fractured during the rule of Sultan Adbul Hamid II, and many people were hostile to his rule." is true, false, or inconclusive?
Answer: True
