Catégorie:Article utilisant une Infobox The chronology of the Crimean War, covering the 1850-1857 period, enables some understanding of the war through a timeline of military actions in the Black Sea and diplomatic events with an impact on the conflict.

  • In 1849, in Jerusalem, the Russian Empire creates the Russian Ecclesiastical Mission (Russkaja duxovnaja missij), therefore settling its presence in Ottoman-dominated Palestine.
  • France May 28: in Constantinople, general Jacques Aupick gives a note to Ali Pasha, Ottoman Minister of Foreign Affairs, which refers to the treaty of 1740, signed between Louis XIV and the Sublime Porte demanding that the quarrels concerning the Holy Places be definitely settled. These quarrels were in part related to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem and the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, which were invested by several Christian congregations. However, the liturgical differences and power struggles between Catholics and Orthodoxes made this cohabitation difficult; the Ottomans were sometimes forced to post guards in front of and inside the churches to avoid conflict. This was not always enough and on Easter in 1846, a struggle arose to know whether Catholic or Orthodox congregations would have priority to celebrate mass at the Holy Sepulchre, where forty people died.
