Abstract
- The article focuses on the Millet System in Ottoman Empire. It states that Millet System helped to create a tolerable minority status for different religious groups and the Ottoman Empire's general contribution to it was primarily to regulate and institutionalise it. It notes that the system allowed the state to control communities through religious institutions and allowed religious hierarchies to control internal dissent and fight heterodoxy.
