The reason MENA is poor, divided and de-industrialized is because of euroaches 100%

The Egyptian-Ottoman war was the biggest humilliating defeat the Ottomans ever endured, worse than WWI, worse than Vienna and other Euroach victories chvds like the brag about, the Ottomans were on the verge of collapse at the hands of a subject alone.

They had a clergy bro, all premodern islamic states had an ulama. It didnt work like western clergy but it was still a collegiate body that was an authority on islamic practice and jurisprudence. They also didn't have an outright nobility but locally entrenched dynasties and landlords that acted as de facto closed nobilities, we just refer to them in the scholarship as “local notables” ofc their power wasnt exactly legally enshrined
