Explanation:

A/5 --- The Armenian Genocide was the forced deportation and the attempt to exterminate the Armenian race. It is estimated that between one and a half million and two million Armenian civilians were persecuted and killed by the government of the Young Turks in the Ottoman Empire, between 1915 and 1923.

B/2 --- Young Turks is the nickname of a Turkish nationalist and reformist party of the early twentieth century, officially known as the Union and Progress Committee, whose leaders rebelled against Sultan Abdul Hamid II, who was officially deposed and banished in 1909. They ruled the Ottoman Empire between mid-1908 and the end of the First World War.

C/4 --- The expression "sick man of Europe" has been applied throughout history to different European countries, referring to the weakness or decay of the government regime its economy.

The origin of the phrase is attributed to Tsar Nicholas I of Russia, who referred to the situation that crossed the Ottoman Empire in the nineteenth century. The use of this expression became popular during the Crimean War. It was mainly applied to the Ottoman Empire from before the First World War, because of the successive losses of territories that once belonged to it.

D/3 --- The Crimean War was a conflict between 1853 and 1856 fought the Russian Empire against a league formed by the Ottoman Empire, France, the United Kingdom and the Kingdom of Sardinia. It was unleashed by Russian expansionism and the fear that the Ottoman Empire would fall apart, and it was fought mainly in the Crimean peninsula, around the naval base of Sevastopol. It ended with the defeat of Russia, which was reflected in the Treaty of Paris of 1856.

E/1 --- Egypt was occupied and controlled by the British Empire from about 1882, when the British invaded it to reinforce the Khedive's regime against growing nationalism. This marked the beginning of a British military occupation of Egypt that was still nominally part of the Ottoman Empire at that time. In 1914 as a result of the declaration of war against the Ottoman Empire, Great Britain declared a protectorate over Egypt and deposed the Khedive, replacing him with another member of the family, Hussein Kamil, who became the Sultan of Egypt.
