The British Empire forces (including Australia, New Zealand, Newfoundland, and British India) and the French forces together sought to gain the straights of the Dardenelles by mounting a campaign against the slowly crumbling Ottoman Empire (now Turkey), which was supported by their allies, Germany and Ausria-Hungary. The main commanders were British, on the one side and Turkish, on the other.
