The Ottoman Empire was initially just a small beylik in Anatolia which originated from the Seljuk Empire. In 1299, Osman I established a formal government and formed the Ottoman Turks. The next few years witnessed the conquest of this small beylik towards more powerful neighbors. At its height, the Ottoman Empire covered several regions, including Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Egypt, Hungary, Macedonia, Romania, Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, parts of Arabia, and a considerable amount of the North African coastal strip.
The most glorious period of the Ottoman Empire was believed to occur during the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent, a brilliant military commander, religious leader as well as political ruler. Under his reign, the Ottoman Empire started its massive expansion towards Eastern Europe and Asia, turning this empire into an extremely large state, and by the time he passed away, its total population reached 15,000,000 km2. Moreover, under the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent, this Islamic-rule superpower also attained considerable accomplishments in the domains of politics, law, and culture.
Specifically, the reforms and attainments Suleiman I reaped are called the “Golden Age of Islam”, which has exerted enormous influence on countries in the region and all around the world. This period was also marked by major achievements in fields of science, mathematics, engineering, philosophy, medicine, literature, economics, etc. For example, the Ottoman was considered the pioneer in the field of vaccination.
The method of vaccination or ‘variolation’ (referred to then as ‘inoculation’) had been practiced for centuries against smallpox in Ottoman lands before it was popularized in Britain and Europe in the 18th century by the wife of the British ambassador to Ottoman, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu. Or in terms of architectural construction, a large number of elaborate mosques and public buildings were built, which reflected the characteristics of Ottoman culture via minor details, contributing to define the culture of the time.
Constantinople (recently known as Istanbul) was built up as the capital of the Ottoman Empire under the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent remains its beauty until now and has become a popular tourist attraction.
The beginning of the 17th century marked the slow decline of the Ottoman Empire. The decline, firstly, was reflected through the loss of economic and military dominance to Europe. Despite the Ottomans’ effort to invade new territories, its defeat at the Battle of Vienna in 1683 definitely led to the weakening of the Empire. By the 19th century, Ottoman power was becoming weaker and weaker due to loss of territories, economic downturn, and increased dependence on the European powers. The Balkan War in 1912 and 1913 which ended with the Ottoman's losing populations and nearly all of its territories in Europe contributed to the decline of the Empire.
In the middle of the 19th century, the Ottoman Empire carried out a series of reforms known as The Tanzimat reforms to modernize the state itself as well as to improve its status. Nevertheless, the reforms turned out not as successful as expected.
And it was the outbreak of World War I that made the Ottoman Empire completely dissolve. During the war, the Ottoman army entered the war on the side of Central Powers which were defeated by the Allied Powers in October 1918. As a result, according to the Armistice of Mudros, the majority of Ottoman territories were divided among Britain, France, Greece, and Russia.
In 1922, the elimination of the Ottoman Sultan’s title officially put an end to the Ottoman Empire, giving the foundation for the Republic of Turkey in the following year.
Do you think what is the decisive factor for the collapse of the Ottoman Empire?

[@Baller474]

I can make alternate history so Ottomans never collapse well, kinda. Basically, Ottoman Empire takes over Kostantiniyye right ? They try to turkify everyone in the empire and since the empire didn't even have 1 million people, the non Turks are advised to only have one child and the Turks have 10 to 15 children. Now, basically everyone in the empire speaks Turkish and they get integrated into Turkic identity. They control their largest extent after a quick expansion. This took like 50 years. Ottoman Empire becomes the Turkish Empire. Then the Turks take over the Sumatra, Borneo, Java, Sulawesi and Malaysia. Then they rapidly increase their army and navy and declare war on Britain and join the 7 year war. The Turks quickly take over British India and some forts in West Africa. Alongside the French fleet, they bombard naval factories on the British coast and land on it. They reach London and Britain surrenders, ending the 7 years war. France takes over all of British North America and British West Africa and Turkey takes over British India which was only ports and forts at the time. Turkish India Company is established and Turkey becomes unstoppable taking over what was in this timeline the British Raj and British East Africa. At WW1, they had Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Kenya, Somaliland and Uganda as colonies and their greatest extent as the actual homeland of the Empire. India doesn't exist because it's Muslim and all non Muslim colonies that Turkey has become Muslim. Turkey wins WW1, WW2 does not exist and eventually Turkey becomes a constitutional monarchy.

[@golfhound]

The Ottomans controlled all trade between Europe and Persia, India, and the Far East. The Ottomans controlled the Silk Road and trade routes by sea. The two main centers of commerce between the East and Europe were Constantinople and Alexandria. The sea routes were far more profitable, lucrative, easier and quicker from the Far East and India sailing to the Northern tip of the Red Sea. All of those goods were transferred the short distance to Alexandria, and then to Western Europe. The Ottomans had a monopoly/stranglehold on all trade between East and West which was why Columbus tried sailing to the west - to create trade routes eliminating Constantinople and Alexandria.

[@infidelhindu]

They also controlled, as they do today, the choke point of Russia's European trade, since Russia's other trade would either be overland w/ rest of Asia, or from Vladivostok in their far east

[@Niniene]

I'd love to see a citation on "most modern navy in the world" considering that the time mentioned corresponds with Magellan. Were Ottoman boats capable of circumnavigating the globe? (They might have been, I have no idea.) Also, I usually hear "the Golden Age of Islam" referring to the Umayyad dynasty in Iberia. Which is neither here nor there...

[@atakanozgun_]

In fact, Ottoman's navy was not the most modern but however was the most powerful because of the power of Ottoman's economy. Ottoman's lost several war at Mediterranian Sea but every each time they had capacity to built more after these defeats. The other topic, entire Islam history neither Umayyads not Abbasids were more powerful than Ottomans. There are many reasons for this. Controlled territory size, technology, population, economic activity, etc. I am agree with the idea of Umayyads were the first biggest Islamic state. Yes, this is true but being the first one is not the mean of the biggest one. Of its own time, Umayyads were more powerful than most of European kingdoms. Well, I think everythink is clear now for you :)

[@Niniene]

@@atakanozgun_ That doesn't surprise me re: the economics bit. I think it's a fair differentiation. Is the technology the most advanced (probably in the early 16th century, that medal would go to the Portugeuese who were doing some really impressive things!) or richest which...actually might go to the Chinese. (We'd be looking at the late Ming dynasty, which was quite prosperous, but not really interesting in naval exploration...Or heck, maybe even the Castilians which had recently conquered both Mexico and Peru, so were fantastically wealthy at least as far as gold and silver reserves go...and also had some pretty impressive naval technology, even if they were mostly using it to cart metal back from the Americas.) I would agree that, as far as strength (and duration) goes, the Ottomans were probably the "dominant" Islamic empire. Not sure that they are necessarily the "golden age" of Islam, though, partially because they were competing intellectually with a far more advanced Christian-European world. (Europe in 700 AD was a backwater, while the same really couldn't be said for Europe in 1450-1900 AD, which were the heyday of the Ottomans). I suppose it's a minor point, all in all. And everything was clear to begin with. But thanks for the condensation...

[@azadaripoint4611]

@@Niniene I also read that the time during which ummayads were ruling spain is considered golden age of islam. I think he made a mistake here in this video

[@Niniene]

I think so too. There seems to be a somewhat odd trend in associating the Ottomans with everything good Islam ever did, bizarrely. As well as often time warping their abilities to eras that were far distant from them. (Like, I'm sure their Navy *was* impressive...as was their wealth. But in the 16th century, they were competing with powers that had empires where the sun literally never did set and had taken so much gold and silver from the Americas that it disrupted trade balances in China.) The Ottomans were an impressive power. They made some significant achievements! But other Islamic (and non-Islamic) empires did, too. Why lie?

[@nuranonal6879]

you didn’t already know?

[@papazataklaattiranimam]

Ottoman legitimacy drew on Turco-Mongol and Islamic precedents. Fleischer sees the Ottoman Empire as a 'unique, if not aberrant, phe nomenon' in Islamic history due to its emphasis on natural justice and the central role of the Ottoman dynasty as rulers of a defined geographic sphere (Fleischer, 1986: 253). The sixteenth-century Ottoman theorists Ebu's-Su'ud and Mustafa Ali upheld broadly similar theses for the legiti macy of the Ottomans which included the manipulation of their lineage to indicate their descent from Oghuz, the eponym of the Ghuzz Turks, their inheritance of Muslim lands from the Seljuk Turks and their dedica tion to justice, understood as a religious, universal concept (Imber, 1997: 73-4; Fleischer, 1986: 282, 287-8). Although the Ottomans adopted a more obviously Islamic profile after their conquest of the Arab lands, including the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, in the early sixteenth century, a distinction remained between religion and the state/dynasty (din-ü-devlet) which was also apparent in the Ottomans' dual legal sys tem based on the Shari'a and 'state' kamun, despite the close partnership between the two. Secular attitudes derived from the Turco-Mongol heritage were also qualified by the tendency among Ottoman political theorists of dis cussing international relations using the medieval dar al-islam/dar al-harb formulation and its concomitant, jihad or ghaza. This reflected the ori gins of the Ottoman Empire as a Turkic warrior principality on the frontiers of Byzantium which led generations of Ottoman sultans to style themselves 'holy warriors' (ghazis) until the Empire's demise in the 1920s. Their conquest of the Balkans and Aegean peninsula was legitimised in terms of jihad against the infidel, and their conquest of Constantino ple was celebrated as the culmination of the Islamic conquests which had begun in the seventh century. In much advice literature of the sev enteenth and eighteenth centuries, the need to continue the jihad and expand the Ottoman Muslim domain in order to restore the inner vital ity of the Empire is a recurrent trope alongside more practical suggestions for reform.

What about israel
