industrial centerof Cukurova. French and Armeniens captured the city in 1918 and
it was freed on 5 Jan. 1922. It is observed from the economic structure of Adana

for its textile industry because of the American Civil War therefore encouraged
the cotton production in Adana under the control of the Ottomans, and the cotton

the region. Adana has many Islamic monumentssuch as mosqus, medreses, bazaars,
clock towers, caravansarays and baths.
