Description: The Ottoman Empire ruled for four centuries in the Middle East region where the Arabs lived. The ideology of nationalism spreading to the world by the French Revolution influenced Arabs with other elements of the Ottoman Empire. Arab nationalism, which began to develop since the second half of the century, has come to the stage of independence through the separatist Arab societies established in the last period of the Ottoman State. One of the separatist Arab organizations established during the Constitutional period was the el-Lâ Merkeziye Cemiyeti. The Society was active between 1912 and 1914 just before World War I. As it is understood from its name, this society, which opposes the centralist approach, suggested a decentralized system as a solution to the problems of the Ottoman State. Apart from it's political program, the Society, which was a secret organization, had worked effectively in raising Arab nationalism in the Ottoman Middle East. There were many important Arab nationalists from the deputies to the journalists among the members of the Society. Another important factor in this society was the gathering of the Arab separatist movement in its own right before World War I.
