The Baghdad Railway, also known as the Berlin–Baghdad Railway, was a significant railway project initiated in the early 20th century to connect Berlin with Baghdad, aiming to enhance German influence in the Ottoman Empire and access to the Persian Gulf. Historical Background The Baghdad Railway project began in the late 19th century, with the Ottoman Empire granting a German firm the concession to extend the existing Anatolian Railway from Istanbul to Baghdad. Construction officially started in 1903, with the goal of creating a direct rail link to the Persian Gulf, which would facilitate trade and military logistics for Germany.
