English: 'An Armenian view of the Baghdad Railway', circa 1915.

The project was never fully completed and the line finally ran north from Basra, in modern-day Iraq, as far as Konya in modern Turkey. Text states; "The Mightiest Military-King in Europe: "Abdul my beloved friend! let us ratify a pact. Give me my railway and keep all the massacres you want..." |
