(<span style="white-space:nowrap;"><abbr title="reigned">r.</abbr> 1789–1807</span>) concluded that Ottoman military required serious reform if the empire was to survive. As a result, he began implementing a series of <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_military_reforms" title="Ottoman military reforms"> reforms aimed at reorganizing the military</a> after the model of European militaries. This included the usage of European training tactics, weapons, and even officers. These reforms troubled the Janissaries, who were suspicious and unreceptive towards the reforms. To this end, Selim III established the <i>Nizam-i Djedid</i> in 1797 in order to develop a replacement for the Janissaries. By 1806 this new army stood 26,000 men strong, equipped with French-style uniforms, European weapons, and a modern artillery corps. Due to their distinctly modern nature, the army was named <span title="Ottoman Turkish (1500-1928)-language text"><i lang="ota">Nizam-ı Cedid</i></span>, which has the meaning of 'New Order' in Ottoman Turkish.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability" title="Wikipedia:Verifiability"><span title="Quotation needed from source to verify.

The old order strongly opposed this age of reform in the Ottoman Empire - first evidenced in the <a href="/wiki/1806_Edirne_incident" title="1806 Edirne incident"> Edirne incident</a> in the summer of 1806 when Selim III's efforts to expand the New Order into Thrace were forcibly halted by a coalition of Janissaries and local <a href="/wiki/Ayan_(class)" title="Ayan (class)"> <i>ayans</i></a>, and, later, by Selim's deposition in May 1807, during which the soldiers of the New Order were either disbanded or massacred.
