The '''Dardanelles''' is a narrow waterway linking the [[Aegean Sea]] with the [[Sea of Marmara]]; the Gallipoli peninsula, part of European [[Turkey]], forms the west bank and Asiatic Turkey the east bank. In 1915 British and Commonwealth troops invaded Gallipoli in an ill-fated attempt (the ''Dardanelles Campaign'') to knock the [[Ottoman Empire]] out of the [[First World War]]. After heavy fighting, the expeditionary force evacuated the peninsula in 1916.
