Jean Karadja Pasha

Prince Jean Constantin Alexandre Othon Karadja Pasha[1] (March 9, 1835 in Nauplia – August 11, 1894 in The Hague) was a Phanariot army officer and diplomat of the Ottoman Empire.

Jean was the son of Prince Constantin Caradja (1799–1860) and Adèle Condo Dandolo (1814–1891) who descended from the famous Venetian Dogal family.

In 1851 Jean was appointed secretary of the Ottoman legation in Berlin, which was led by his father Constantin from December 1847 – October 1857.

It was common practice that the lower officials of the Ottoman ministry were selected from their own family members.
