Règlement Organique (Mount Lebanon)

The Règlement Organique (from French: "Organic Regulation") was a series of international conventions between the Ottoman Empire and the European Powers from 1860 to 1864 which led to the creation of the Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate. The 1860 Lebanon conflict led France to intervene and stop the massacre of Christian civilians after Ottoman troops had been aiding Islamic forces by either direct support or by disarming Christian forces.
