Özet:

The monastery province is one of the most risky earthquake areas in Ottoman Macedonia and the most active earthquake areas in the Balkan Peninsula. The earthquakes occurred in the monastery province were concentrated on the Struga-Ohri-Görice line. Among the examined dates, there have been frequent earthquakes on the line of Monastery-Ohri-Görice. In this study, the earthquakes occurring between 1893-1912 on the Struga-Ohri-Görice line in the Monastery province will be assessed and recorded with data obtained from the archive documents. However, the topic of catastrophic management and the reduction of the impact of the earthquake on society, which is the most important topic of earthquakes, was one of the priority issues for the Ottoman State in a period when the matter of Macedonia became an international issue. The Ottoman State’s work on catastrophic management will be referred to in order to reduce the impact of the earthquake on society.
