Non-Muslims who lived in the Ottoman Empire were called Dhimmi, or second-class citizens. They lacked a number of fundamental rights such as freedom of movement, freedom of settlement, access to all occupations, and additional taxation because they were Non-Muslim. Each Dhimmi group, like the Armenians, Greeks, Jews, and so forth were organized into Millets which were community representative groups. Each Millet would report to a centralized Millet representative in Istanbul who would have direct dealing with the Imperial Palace. This would allow the Millets to air their grievances, but was more often used as a method to control the Millets and make them less resistive to Ottoman Occupation.

The Ottoman Empire practiced a system known as "millet," which allowed religious minorities, including Jews and Christians, to govern themselves in matters of personal law and maintain their own religious practices. While they were generally tolerated and given a degree of autonomy, these groups were subject to certain legal and social restrictions, such as paying a special tax called the jizya.
