History
The Ottoman army under the command of Enver Pasha he entered Adrianople on 22 July 1913. Edirne, Kırklareli and Dimetoka were taken back and the Bulgarians could not show much resistance as they were being attacked from every region. Edirne (Adrianople) came under Turkish rule again. The Ottoman Empire won its last victory in the Balkans and did not lose a great deal of territory in Thrace until the First World War. The re-inclusion of Edirne in the Ottoman lands became official only with the Treaty of Constantinople (1913) signed with the Kingdom of Bulgaria on September 29, 1913.
