Beirut 1860: The Massacre That Redrew Mount Lebanon

8 min•20 juni 2026

In June 1860, sectarian violence erupted in Deir al-Qamar, spreading through the Chouf and Matn, killing thousands of Christians and reshaping Mount Lebanon. Lucas and Luna examine the immediate causes — peasant grievances, Druze-Maronite tensions, and Ottoman weakness — and the aftermath: the Règlement Organique that created the Mutasarrifiyya, a autonomous governance that planted the seeds of modern Lebanon. They discuss the role of Yusuf Karam, the Maronite leader who fought back but was exiled, and how European powers forced reform. A forgotten massacre that still echoes in Lebanese memory.
