In 1721, Austria, and at later dates France, Russia, Great Britain, Germany and Italy were granted the right to operate their own post offices in cities throughout the Ottoman Empire. All foreign post offices closed in October 1914 but after the war Great Britain, France and Italy reopened their post offices in Constantinople and, in the case of Great Britain, Smyrna. This system came to an end with the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923.
