Alıntı: 1831 marks the beginning of detailed censuses in the Ottoman Empire. The reason for the compilation of this census was not to explore the tax base of the Ottoman Empire, but to register possible conscripts. 1831 census precedes the introduction of universal conscription in the Ottoman Empire and although we have detailed information on the male part of the population females are totally missing. See (Karal 1943) for the first publication of the 1831 census and (Behar 1996)23-25 for critical comments on 1831 census. Due to inefficiency of newly modernizing Ottoman state in registering its subjects, this census represents a serious undercount. Moreover, several regions of the Ottoman Empire including its biggest city Istanbul were not included into the census. Nevertheless, on the demography of the capital we possess detailed studies throughout the centuries.
