Despite their persecution during the supression of the Janissaries in1826, the Bektashis were again reestablished in considerable strengthby the mid 19th. century.

Thus down throughOttoman history, the Bektashis played an important role as a linkbetween Christians and Turks, and preserved the culture that developedamong the peoples who were living together in Asia Minor the exchangeof populations in 1923.
