13727historical_info = flavor_tur.165.historical_info Beginning in the 1680s, the mighty Euphrates river changed course, resulting in the flooding of significant areas and widespread destruction. The Ottoman were embroiled in war with the Holy League in the west, and could not muster the resources to address the situation in Iraq. This disaster led to the breakdown of the old Ottoman governance strategies in the region, and only with the appointment of the veteran statesman Hassan Pasha as governor of Baghdad in 1704 did they regain significant control.
