    source= THE POLITICS OF UNION AND PROGRESS (by Feroz AHMAD): The character of post-revolution politics in Turkey was largely determined by the Unionist ideology and organisation. In July 1908 the Committee of Union and Progress (the CUP) emerged. In a few year time, Talat became the president of the CUP. Immediately after the restoration of the Ottoman Constitution, a number of Unionists came to prominence. They included Talat, Enver, Dr.Nazım, Dr.Bahaeddin Şakir, Rahmi Bey, and Emanuel Karasu, better known in Europe as 'Carasso, the Jewish lawyer from Salonika' .  Between 1908 and 1914 the Sublime Porte suffered at the hands of a number of powers. The Turks lost about 424,000 square miles out of a total area of about 1,153,000 square miles, and approximately 5,000,000 souls from a population of about 24 million.
