Nurban Sultan

The full founder of the female Sultanate can be considered Nurban Sultan (a representative of a notable Venetian family), his wife Sultan Selim II (1566-1574) and mother (that is, Valida Sultan) Sultan Murad III.

It is characteristic that it is impossible to attribute the beginning of the period of particular female influence to the reign of Selim II - with it, Nurban was just his wife Sultan, albeit the main one. Her influence increased after the top of her son Muradi III, which even climbed the throne at the age of 28, but the country did not show interest in the country, spending time in entertainment and enjoyment in the harem. Nurban Sultan can generally be called the Shadow Manager of the Empire until her death in 1583.

Safiya Sultan

After Nurban, Sultan, the role of "guardianship" at Murad III assumed his main concubine, and did not receive the status of the official wife of Safiye Sultan. She was also Venetian, moreover, who came from the same family as mother-in-law. She did not interfere with Sultan spending time in entertainment, in many respects deciding for him state affairs. Its influence increased even more after the death of the spouse in 1595 and climbing the throne of the Son, Mehmed III.

The new Sultan immediately executed the 19 of his brothers and even all the pregnant concubines of his father and continued himself as a bloody and incompetent ruler. However, Sultan Sultan with him was very close to being a real government. She died in 1604, Mehmed III survived her for a couple of months.

Ködesem Sultan

Then, for a while in the Women's Sultanate, there was a break and women lost their influence - but only for replacing the real "sultan", Ködesem Sultan, the wife of Sultan Ahmed I (1603-1617). With her husband, however, Ködem did not have any influence. She received him already in the status of Valida Sultan, when in 1523, at the age of 11, the ruler was her son Murad IV. In 1540, he died and a brother came to a shift, another son Ködesem, Ibrahim I, who became insane in the nickname.

With his sons, Ködem Sultan was almost a full government portion. After the murder of Ibrahim I in 1648 he was inherited by his son Mehmed IV. Initially, Ködem retained a good relationship with her grandson, but quickly collapsed with him and in 1651 was killed.

Turkhan Sultan

The death of Ködesend Sultan is often referred to at the expense of the last representative of the female Sultanate, Ibrahim I and Mother Mehmed IV, known as Turkhan Sultan. By origin, she was Ukrainian, her name was hope and in childhood was abducted by the Crimean Tatars. At the age of 12, she became a concubine of Ibrahim, His Ködem Sultan was presented to him. In 15 years, Turkhan already gave birth to the heir, the future Mehmed IV. After the arrival of his son, Turkhan was now received by the title of Valida Sultan and did not want to put up with ambitious mother-in-law, which, by assumptions, eliminated.

Mehmed IV was not very attentive to state duties, preferring the main time to carry out in hunting and sports contests in the fresh air. In the period from 1648 to 1656, the Turkhan Sultan was regent with a small son. However, when he was 14 years old, Valid-Sultan appointed a great Vizier Mehmed Kepelul, who became the founder of the Dynasty of the Great Visers, who focused real power in their hands on almost 60 years. Thus, the era of the female Sultanate is over, and Turkhan Sultan died in the summer of 1683, two months before the fatal defeat of the Ottoman Empire In the battle near Vienna.

Alexander Babitsky

Ottoman Empirewho once existed was the birthplace of 36 Turkish sultans. In fact, everywhere Turkish sultans are called Ottoman, but since Ottomans were anyone else, as the Turks, from the Turkic tribes, will allow the Sultans of the Ottoman Empire to call the Turkish rulers until 1922.

Ottoman Turks are immigrants from the Central Asian Tribal tribe called Kaiy (Kayı) who flee from the conquests of Tamerlane's ancestors, first ran to the West from their habitat (the city of Balkh - now the Afghan province), and then settled in Anatolia under the borders of the Byzantine Empire.

Now let's see what each Turkish Sultan distinguished himself for his years of the Board of the Ottoman Empire.

Sultans of Turkey: the structure of personalities on the line of 717 years

Osman Gazi. The son of the leader of a small Turkic tribe, located on the strategic boundaries with Byzantium and the Balkans. I wore the title of Ulubay, the Board began in 24 years. Osman 1 in history is characterized as a brave warrior with a noble nomadic spirit, but at the same time a full barbarian, which organized military campaigns on the way to the creation of the Great Ottoman Empire. Announces your possessions free from Seljukov, Osman 1 was able to win a new part of Malaya Asia, Byzantine Ephesi, the Black Sea cities of Anatoly and to compile a plan for conquest, in which Osman was buried. The Turkish Sultan died from old age in 1324.

OrhanI Gazi.. This Sultan of ancient Turkey is the youngest son of Osman 1, the dates of death and the end of the board of which different sources are described in different ways. To be honest, I do not know what date is true (1359 or 1362), but, nevertheless, it was at the first territory of the first territory of the Ottoman Empire that expanded quite noticeably. Turkish Sultan made every effort to create the right conditions for the growth of the Great Power.

At its board, the first Ottoman coins began to be minted, it was Orhahan 1 who established the famous squads of Janacar, and first, after the end of the seizure of all Malaya Asia, went to conquer Europe. In Orhans, the population of the state increased to 500,000 people, and in 1354 this Ottoman Sultan seized the current capital of Turkey -.

Murad I. This ruler was able to elevate his state to the level of the empire, after which the title of the Great Sultan was gained. At the Greeks, he took Adrianopol, where he suffered the capital of the power, won part of Bulgaria, and in the last hiking went to the Serbs, and in the "epically-memorable" battle on the Kosovo field the enemy broke the battle. However, Sultan Murad 1 killed there, in 1389. I killed him Serb, who gave himself for the defector.

This Sultan Turkey was negotiable, he fastened the fingerprint contracts, not the signature. But it is worth paying tribute to him - Murad 1 was very reluctating, providing citizenship to foreigners and the same privileges with Muslims, while remained a true defender of the Islamic faith.

Bayazid i lightningry. The first step as the ruler of the Empire, Bayazid 1 made in the direction of the murder of his own brother. It was this Turkish Sultan that the state tradition of fratricide was introduced while entering the throne. I must say, this tradition is quite firmly asslaved in the empire as eliminating competitors. Bayazid Lightning loved luxury, he saw and having fun, drinking wine that the Muslim religion was not successful. Nevertheless, this Sultan Turkey was able to win a small Asia to the end, take big lands in the Balkans and give a crushing back to the Crusaders.

I was going to take Constantinople, which deposited as many as 6 years, but from the east on Ottomans, Tamerlan was shown, who was captivated by Turkish Sultan. Bayazid 1 died in 1402 in captivity, according to some reports she committed suicide.

Mehmed I Cherestubi. He came out the winner from the civil war and officially joined the throne in 1413. He enjoyed strong support to Janchar, he was loved for education, prudence and strict temper. He managed to keep the empire allocated after the captivity and start hosting military campaigns again. He was the youngest son of Bayazid the First, who supported the world with Byzantium and Europe, strengthening the returned lands that Tamerlan once took.

Murad II.. He married his grandfather Bayazid I, on the Slavic woman - the daughter of the Serbian ruler, giving his wife complete freedom of religion. After the battle at Varna (in 1444), Murad 2 came out the winner, suppressing all the energy of Europe. From that time and until the end of the XVI century, the entire history of Turkish sultans is full of alone victories and conquests.

Mehmed II Conqueror. Rules Ottomans 2 times, for 6 years giving Father Murada 2 his throne due to youth judgments in terms of conquesting Constantinople. After the death of Father Mehmed Fatih, the conqueror finally began to exercise his plans. It was this Turkish Sultan that took and allowed brutally to rob him three days. It was Mehmed 2 who moved to this city with the capital of the Ottoman Empire to this city, and the Holy Temple of Saint Sophia reddown to the main mosque of the Old Turkey. The name of the city also gave this Turkish Sultan, as well as Mehmed Fatih insisted at the presence with representatives of the Islamic clergy of the residence of the Patriarchate of the Greek Orthodox Church, the Armenian and Main Juda Rabbi. He also deprived Serbia autonomy, conquered Bosnia, captured the Crimean Khanate, and almost reached Rome, to seize this city to Turkish Sultan prevented his death.

Bayazid II Dervish. He fought a little, considered to be the first Sultan, who refused to personally command his army, and in the history of Bayazid 2 entered as a patron of culture and literature. Run from the throne, having passed his younger son to Selim.

Selim I Grozny. It is nusted with merciless, for ordered to kill his brothers and nephews, as well as for cruel straightening with shiites, having interrupted about 45,000 people. Pershed Kurdistan, won Western Armenia, took away Syria with Palestine, Jerusalem, Arabia with Mecca and Medina, plus Egypt. Selim 1 Terrible For almost 10 years, the territory of the Ottoman Empire increased 2 times. This Turkish Sultan in Istanbul translated the banner and the cloak of the Prophet Mohammed, approving that it has the right to manage the entire Islamic world.

Suleiman I Gorgeous. Known, like Turkish Sultan, the legislator, the magnificent, the Great and Canona on the Turkish Lad. Sultan Suleiman 1 also strongly expanded the boundaries of the Ottoman Turkey, which, with its rule, occupied the Earth from Budapest to Assuana and Nile Rogging, from Euphrate and Tiger and to the Gibraltar Strait. During his reign, the Ottoman Sultan Suleiman gorgeous dreamed of connecting the Earth and the peoples of the West and the East. The last 20 years, the most famous Turkish Sultan was influenced by his concubine, and then the wife of Hurrem (Roksolan). Having headed a new trip to Hungary, Sultan Suleiman did not live to victory, in 1566 he died. The death of Padishah hid - the empire was already managed without Sultan, but on his behalf, while he did not come to the throne and Hurrem Son - Selim the second, from which the decline of the Ottoman Empire began.

Selim II drunka. The son of the magnificent Turkish Sultan was a kind and educated person, he wrote exquisite poems, was a talented poet, but, apparently, like all creative people, had something special addiction. Selima 2 was called the drunkard, very much he loved the wine that prevented him to follow the empire. It was during the reign of this Turkish sultan that Turkey and Muscovy's interests were faced at the border of Azov and Astrakhan.

Sultan Selim drunk was able to win Cyprus, it was his only acquisition on the throne. Although, drinking another glass of local wine with a volley, everything on the same Cyprus, in the bath, Turkish Sultan slipped and fell. Having hit his head about the marble slab, died in 1574.

Murad Third was distinguished by a strong greedy to numerous concubines, which led to the results of extensive offspring - this Turkish Sultan was over hundreds of children.

With Murada 3, Tiflis, Dagestan, Azerbaijan, Shirvan, Tabriz was captured. But the Empire's decline that began never stopped.

Mehmed III. Portrait - depraved and bloodthirsty. This Ottoman ruler has not fallen behind his father Murad Third in terms of killing his brothers. If you remember, his father had more than a hundred children. Turkish Sultan Mehmed Third ordered to kill his 19 brothers - this event became the largest brotherhood in the history of Ottomans. Moreover, the new ruler gave a decree to drown in the Bosphorus of their pregnant concubines, and after some time, sent to death and his own son. The Ottoman Empire was led by his mother, but he managed to do one successful trip to Hungary.

Ahmed I.. Sultan Ahmed first lived only 27 years and 14 of them the rules of the Ottoman Empire. He was a capricious but very clever boy. When the board showed a character and changed his viziers and advisers when he wakes up, or, as he demands a harem.

With it, corruption strengthened, it was in honor of this Sultan that the famous blue mosque was built in Istanbul, originally wearing the name Ahmedia, now simply - Sultanahmet's mosque.

In 1612, in the diploma of the Polish King Turkish signed as follows:

Mustafa I Lunatic. Rules in two times in 1617-1618 and in 1622-1623, - Ahmedi's weak brother, was seen in Lunaticism. This newly minted Sultan spent 14 years in the dungeon, but some considered him a "holy" man, because in its mass Muslims treated with sacred reverence to the crazy. In his prison, Turkish Sultan Mustafa 1 Fishes in Bosphorus threw no crumbs, but the most real gold coins.

It remained alive at the classroom of his brother Ahmed, who did not want to kill the only brother. When everyone understood that he could not rule the Mustafa, he again went to the dungeon.

Her influence increased after the top of her son Muradi III, which even climbed the throne at the age of 28, but the country did not show interest in the country, spending time in entertainment and enjoyment in the harem. Nurban Sultan can generally be called the Shadow Manager of the Empire until her death in 1583.

Safiye Sultan (tour. Safiye Sultan; approx. 1550-1618 / 1619) - concubine of the Ottoman Sultan Murad III and Mother Mehmed III.

After Nurban, Sultan, the role of "guardianship" at Murad III took over his main concubinate, and did not receive the status of official wife Safiy Sultan. She was also Venetian, moreover, who came from the same family as mother-in-law. She did not interfere with Sultan spending time in entertainment, in many respects deciding for him state affairs. Its influence increased even more after the death of the spouse in 1595 and climbing the throne of the Son, Mehmed III. The new Sultan immediately executed the 19 of his brothers and even all the pregnant concubines of his father and continued himself as a bloody and incompetent ruler. However, Sultan Sultan with him was very close to being a real government. She died in 1604, Mehmed III survived her for a couple of months.

With her husband, however, Ködem did not have any influence. She received him already in the status of Valida Sultan, when in 1523, at the age of 11, the ruler was her son Murad IV. In 1540, he died and a brother came to a shift, another son Ködesem, Ibrahim I, who became the story under the nickname insane. In his sons, Ködesem Sultan was almost a full-fledged government ports.

Little-known facts from the life of Sultanov ...

When they begin to talk about the Ottoman rulers, then people automatically appear the image of the formidable, cruel conquerors who spent their free time in a harem among semi-naughty concubines. But everyone forget that they were simple mortals with their shortcomings and hobbies ...

Osman 1.

Describe that when he stood, his lowered hands reached his knees, based on it, it was believed that he had or very long hands, or short legs. His distinctive feature character was that he never dressed upper clothes again. And not because What was a pigeon, he just loved to give his clothes by shit over coat. If someone looked at his caftan for a long time, he removed him and gave this man. Osman loved her music before the meal before the meal, was a good fighter and skillfully owned weapons. Turks had a very interesting old custom - once a year, ordinary members of the tribe worn from the house of the leader all that they would like in this house. Osman and his wife came out of the house with empty hands and opened the doors for his relatives.

Orhan.

Orhan's board lasted 36 years. He owned the 100th fortresses, and he spent around them all his time. None of them remained more than one month. He was a big fan of Mevlana-Jelleleddin Rumi.

I loved the hunt and was an avid hunter, often participated in combat competitions. Historians also celebrate his master's master's possession and horse riding. He was one of the first rulers writing poetry. He was the first to be asked by Constantinople, and more than once. He died in captivity of Timur.

Mehmet Chelaby.

It is considered the revolution of the Ottoman state as a result of victory over thimurila. When he was with him, he was called a wrestler Mkhemet. During his reign, we entered the custom every year to send to Mecca and Medina the gifts, which was not canceled even in the most difficult times until the First World War. Every Friday evening prepared food for his personal money and distributed to the poor. As the father loved the hunt. During the hunt for the idar, fell from the horse and broke the hip bone, which is why he died soon.

    Suleiman Kanuni was born on April 27, 1495. He became Sultan when he was 25 years old. Uncompromising wrestler with bribery, Suleiman won the location of the people with good deeds, built schools. Suleiman Kanuni patronized poets, artists, architects, he himself wrote poems, was considered a skillful blacksmith.

    Suleiman was not so blooddered as his father - Selim I, but he was not less than his father's conquest. In addition, neither kinship nor merit saved from his suspicion and cruelty.

    Suleiman personally led 13 campaigns. A significant part of the wealth received from military extraction, Dani and taxes was spent by Suleiman I on the construction of palaces, mosques, caravan Sarai, tomb.

    Also, it was also drawn up laws (eve) on the administrative device and the position of individual provinces, about finance and forms of land tenure, the contestedness of the population and attaching peasants to the Earth, the regulation of the military system.

    So I am for the friendship of peoples and denominations. Now 21 century and people should not differ in a racial or confessional principle. We see how many sultans had christians? By the way, the last Sultan, if I'm not mistaken, the grandmother was Armenian. Russian kings parents are also Germans, Danes and the British.

    Palace intrigues of Padishakh wives

    

    

    Hyrem-Sultan (Roksolana 1500-1558): Due to its beauty and the mind, she not only managed to attract the attention of Suleiman's great, but also to become his beloved woman. Her struggle with the first wife of Suleiman, Makhidervan, was the most famous intrigue of that time, such a struggle was not on life, but to death. Roksolana walked around her in all articles and finally became his official wife. As its influence on the ruler, its influence and in state affairs increased. Soon she managed to shift and Vesiri and Azam (Prime Minister) Ibrahim Pasha, who was married to the sister of Suleiman. For married betray, he was executed. She married the next Vesir and Azama Rushem-Pasha, she married her daughter and with the help of which she managed to defame, by replacing letters, accuse in hostile relations with the main enemies by the Iranians of the Elder Son Suleiman Shahzad Mustafa. For the mind and great abilities, Mustafa was able to follow the next Padishah, but by order of his father strangled him during the campaign to Iran.

    

    Over time, during meetings while in the secret department, Hyrem Sultan listened and shared after the Council his opinion with her husband. From the poems dedicated to the Suleiman Rocksolane, it becomes obvious that the love of him to her was more expensive for him in the world.

    Nurban Sultan (1525-1587):

    At the age of 10 years, the corsars were abducted and sold on the famous feather market in Istambul by traders with slaves. The traders marked her beauty and the mind sent it to Harem, where she managed to attract the attention of Hyrem Sultan, who sent to the upbringing in the city of Manis. A real beauty was able to conquer the heart of the son of Hurrem Sultan Selima 2, who soon married her. Poems written by Selim in her honor entered as excellent patterns of lyrics. Selim was a younger son, but as a result of the death of all his brothers, becomes the only heir to the throne, which he climbed. Nurban became the only mistress of his heart and, respectively, Harem. There were other women in the life of Selim, but none of them was able to conquer his heart as Nurban. After the death of Selima (1574), her son Murat 3 became Padishah, she becomes Sultan's Valida (Korleva-Mother) and for a long time held the reign threads in their hands, despite the fact that this time her rival was Murat 3 Safiy Sultan's wife.

    Safia Sultan

    

    Life full intrigue has become the topic for many novels after her death. Just like Nurban Sultan, she was kidnapped with corsairs and sold in a harem, where Nurban Sultan was bought for the big money for his son Murat 3.

    

    Hot love of her son to her embarrassed the influence of the mother on the son. Then Nurban Sultan begins to enter into the lives of the son of other women, but the love of Safie Sultan was unshakable. Shortly after the death of the mother-in-law actually the rules of the state.

    

    Sledge Sultan.

    Murada 4 (1612-1640) Soul Sultan became a widow when he was still small. In 1623, at the age of 11 years, it is erected on the throne and Sultan's sledge becomes revenge on it. In fact, the rules of the state.

    

    As the son growled, she moved into the shadows, but continued to influence her son to his very death. Another son - Ibrahim (1615-1648) was erected on the throne. The beginning of his rule was the beginning of the struggle by Sultan's sulter with his wife Turkhan Sultan. Both of these women sought to establish their influence in state affairs, but over time this struggle has become so apparent that it served the formation of opposing groups.

    

    As a result of this long struggle, Sultan sultan was found in their room, and her supporters were executed.

    Turkhan Sultan (Hope)

    It was abducted in the steppes of Ukraine and was presented in the harem. Soon she became the wife of Ibrahim, after the death of which her juvenal son Menmet was planted on the throne, even though she became the reserve, her mother-in-law Sultan Sultan was not going to release the reign of the board from their hands. But soon she was found chosen in her room, and her supporters were executed the next day. Regency Turkhan Sultan lasts 34 years and it was a record in the history of the Ottoman Empire.

  • • roksolana, with his son-in-law slandered him before his father, were drawn up letters, allegedly written by Mustafa Iranian Shah, where he asks for the latter to help capture the throne. All this is happening against the background of the acute struggle between Rumelia Turks (Osmans) and Iran's Turks for the extension East. Anatoly, Iraq and Syria. Suleiman ordered to strangle Mustafa.

      Could the maral save Krnstantinopol? The 15th century was marked by the unreaved Natius of Ottomans on Byzantium. By this time, only Constantinople remained from Byzantium. How once Sultan Mehmet 2, "Or I will take Constantinople, or he."

  

Anastasia Gavrilovna Lisovskaya, or Roksolana, or Hurrend (1506-1558) - first was a concubine, and then became the wife of the Ottoman Sultan Suleiman magnificent. Why, no one ordered it by this name, no one knows, but in Arabic may mean "cheerful, bright", but about Roksolana - disputes serious, the name to Rusinam, Russians - the name of all the inhabitants of Eastern Europe.

And where she was born, no one knows exact location. Perhaps the city of Rogatin Ivano-Frankivsk region or the city of Checomers Khmelnitsky region. When she was a little she kidnapped the Crimean Tatars and sold to Turkish harem.

In the harem life was not easy. She could die or fight. She chose the struggle and is now known to the whole world. Everything in the harem was ready for everything, just to get a sultan tenderness. Everyone wanted to survive and put off the feet. The life of Roksolana-Nastya is well known to everyone, but about other slaves, which could also break out of the slavery of information.

Kezate Sultan

The most famous Valida Sultan Kezeme-Sultan (1589-1651), she was a favorite concubine of Sultan Ahmet's first. In the years of short virginity, she was a girl Anastasia, a priest's daughter from the Greek Island Tinos.

She officially and was alone at the head of the Muslim Empire during debts of years. She would be a tough woman, but also with mercy in it also attended - she looked at all his slaves in 3 years.

She died with a violent death, was strangled by order of the future Sultan Valid the main eunuch of the harem.

Handan Sultan

Valida Sultan was Handan (Handan) Sultan, the wife of Sultan Mehmed III and the mother of Sultan Ahmed I (1576-1605). Previously, she was Elena, a daughter of a priest, also Greek.

She was abducted in a harem, and tried to get to power with all ways.

Nurban Sultan

Nurban Sultan (translated - "Princess of Light", 1525-1583) was his beloved wife Sultan Selima second (drunkard) and mother Sultan Murad Third. She was noble origin. But it did not stop the slave workers to kidnap her and deliver to the palace.

When her husband died, she sledged him to wait for her son to wait, when her son arrives and goes to the throne.

The corpse was so lay down 12 days.

Nurbanu was a relative of the most influential and rich people in Europe, for example, Senator and Poet Georgio Buffo (1694-1768). In addition, she was a relative of the Government of the Ottoman Empire - Safia Sultan, who was Venetian in origin.

At that time, many Greek islands belonged to Venice. They were relatives and "in the Turkish line", and "on Italian".

Nurbanu led correspondence with many ruling dynasties, led a pro-Venetian policy, for which it was raised by the Genoese. (There is also a legend that the Genoese agent pointed it). Lined the mosque Attik Valid in honor of Nurban near the capital.

Safia Sultan

Safiy Sultan was born in 1550. She was the wife of Murad Third and Mother Mehmed Third. In freedom and the virology, Sofia Buffo was named, was the daughter of the ruler of the Greek Island Corfu and the relative of the Venice Senator and the poet Giorgio Buffo.

Excursions around the city of Safiye Sultan made in a presented crew, the subjects were shocked by such behavior.

She was the hence of the Turkish Sultans after her after her.

In her honor there is a mosque in Cairo. And Turkhan Hatis's mosque, which she herself began to build, finished another Valida Sultan Nadia from the small Ukrainian city. She was kidnapped when she was 12 years old.

Sultanshi due to circumstances

The stories of such girls can not be called happy. But they did not died, they did not sit in imprisonment in the most distant rooms of the palace, they were not expelled. They themselves began to rule, it seemed impossible to everyone.

They achieved power with cruel ways, including the orders for killing. Turkey for them is the second homeland.

They did not try to end the life of suicide, but someone contacted a knife from many thousands sold to the Seryla girls of many nationalities. And someone just died. And some decided to edit those who deprived them of home, parents and their homeland. We will not blame them in anything.

What the girls had the power of character and will, which were in such situations. They fought for their lives, sprill intrigues, killed. But is there a sweet life in a harem?
