European imperialist powers sought to take over Ottoman Empire lands primarily for strategic, economic, and geopolitical reasons. The decline of the Ottoman Empire created opportunities for expansion, allowing European nations to gain access to valuable resources, trade routes, and new markets. Additionally, controlling these territories would enhance their military and political influence in the region, particularly in the context of rivalries among European powers. The desire to spread Western culture and political ideologies also motivated imperial ambitions in these lands.

The Ottoman Empire has formed various alliances with European States during its long existence. During the early European Conquests, the territories of Moldavia and Wallachia (in what is now Romania) became vassals of the Ottoman Empire. France also had a longstanding alliance with the Ottoman Empire (1500s-1800s) since both Empires opposed the Hapsburg Emperors of Austria and Spain. The British joined this alliance in 1852 to prevent Russian expansion into the Ukraine during the Crimean War.
