Summary/Abstract: With the occupation of the Arab lands, in which were under Ottoman rule for four centuries, in the First World War by the British forces, the prolonged Turkish-Arab co-existence has come to an end. However, the fact that this union breaks down in terms of the recent Turkish-Arab relations is the rebellion that the Amir of Hejaz Sharif Hussein made against the Ottoman government. The rebellion that Sharif Hussein made was an important argument in making the nation-state processes of the Turkish and Arab states and played an important role in the history of these nation-states as "Great Arab Revolt" or "Arab Betrayal". Appropriating the rebellion to all the Arabs, which is stated as a rebellion that ended the centuries-old Ottoman rule, created a trauma in Turkish-Arab relations.
