Abstract: The Ottoman State faced with many financial and administrative crises, especially after the 16th century. As well as the relevant crisis periods are called as depressed ones, they also have an important place in terms of fading of the state after the rising period of that. In this context, as the comprehension between arm and finance began to weaken, the crises began to become chronic and caused the state to regress and enter into a period of disintegration. Although appearance of the crises may seem because of the administrative reasons, it would generally be more appropriate to attribute them to the developments in the west. The Ottoman State stayed behind the European states due to the reasons such as especially renaissance and reform movements, industrial revolution, development of capitalist production system etc, and couldn’t keep pace with new order. However, the factors such as the inability to win wars, corruption of land management applied, inadequate production in domestic market, and some financial disruptions have also been identified as factors that trigger the crisis in the Ottoman State. In this study, the causes of the financial crisis in the Ottoman Empire will be examined, and how the changes performed to overcome the financial crisis resulted will be discussed.Besides, the topic of that to what extent a set of essential innovation movements organized by management straightened the financial structure establishes the original aspect of the study.
