Özet:

During the Balkan Wars, Imbros and Tenedos were invaded by the Greeks at the end of 1912. The sovereignty of Greeks in the islands continued until 1923. In World War I, Imbros was used as a military base by the British. Being held by Turkey with the Treaty of Lausanne, Imbros and Tenedos again entered into the domination of Turks in October, 1923. On various occasions, The Greeks in Imbros have expressed their satisfaction for being annexed to Turkey. Initially, civil service inspectors and delegations were sent to the island; and the administrative organization was established temporarily. Later, both of the islands were turned into administrative districts and connected to Çanakkale Province.  The governments of the Republic of Turkey have paid special attention to ensuring order and security in the islands. In 1928, Ali Galip, Inspector of Property, and Mr. Nazif, General Director of Provincial Affairs of the Provinces, were assigned to carry out inspections in the island by the Ministry of the Interior. Mr. Nazif prepared a detailed report on both islands and presented it to the Ministry of the Interior. In this article, the developments in Imbros and Tenedos during the first years of the Treaty of Lausanne (1923-1928) are explored in the light of archival documents and various sources.
