Jews by and large did not participate in the Young Turks, which disbanded in 1924 after gaining power and creating the Turkish Republic. In fact, the Jews of Turkey prior to the creation of the Turkish Republic were primarily Ottomanists, the political who pressed for a continuation of the Ottoman Empire with the introduction of increasing Tanzimat reforms as opposed to the Young Turks who sought the overthrow of the government. The reason for this stance was that the newly independent Greek and Bulgarian countries were more Anti-Semitic than the Ottoman Empire had been and they feared that the Young Turks would lead to an increase in Anti-Semitism as well. To a degree, they were right and most Jews left Turkey in 1949. However, there were some Turkish Jews like Emmanuel Carasso who were prominent Young Turks.
