These words were in the first half of his reign. When he was glorifying and priding of his Turkish racism so far as despicable fanaticism. As if the Turks were the only inhabitants who solely make up the population of the Ottoman Empire! Abdul Hamid exaggerated the comparison between the Turkish and the German elements, as we see him being boast and take pride in saying: “Now and then, the Turks were said to be the East Germans. The fact is that there is similarity between us and the Germans. Where this similarity may be a reason for our tendency towards them. As calmness, prudence, and patience over hardships are the characteristics of these two peoples. Our people are sober and solemn. Where their forbearance precedes their rage. So they endure injury for a long time. But if they get angry, it would be intense rage. In addition to boldness, integrity, kindness and generosity that are the characteristics of the Germans as they are our characteristics”. There is no doubt that such a saying arises from a view of admiration for the German race, who used to see himself as one of the purest human races. This supreme view conveys to any reader that the Sultan adopted the same chauvinism and supremacist view of the Turkish race. As this raises many marks of exclamation by the readers about this who claimed to be the caliph of the Muslims and the primary responsible for them. This who called for the Islamic League, which apparently was not invoked except in an attempt to get rid of the internal and external crises that engulfed the pillars of his state. 

Indeed, the character of Sultan Abdul Hamid needs a psychological study to find out his behavior, thinking and emotions. In addition to his reactions that were issued by him during that era of the modern history. Especially that he has been known for the conditions of suspicion and uncertainty that dominated him, his actions and behavior. About this matter, Tahseen Pasha, head of the writing department at Yildiz Palace, and as he was close to the Sultan, talked in his diary about Abdul Hamid, by saying: “the illusion of Sultan Abdul Hamid, whether congenital or acquired, was an illusion that is far beyond the normal extend. This illusion had significant and sometimes painful effects on his behavior in general. However, with no doubt that part of this illusion arose from his character. As it is certain that, at the time, when he was a prince, crown prince, or sultan, the people around him did not stop raising his concerns. So they showed him concerns that exacerbate those illusions”.
