@brianbethea3069 that pasha worked with his wife. If anything, his favourite wife caused all this. This is the punishment of loving a foreigner.

@Sunayze ibrahim did many things for the ottoman empire and suleiman. He was an equal, and should have been sultan in that persian place he talked about.

Ataturk was an asshole

@Wolf6119 sounds like a god complex. Islam forbids this, how unislamic of the ottomans.

Worst thing about jainissaires was they were forced.

@1987MartinT turks are emotional beings. Why do you think turks have problems today? All created by emotion and hubris, and most importantly, lack of self awareness and reflection.

However, ottoman power was based on expension. Because Europe was devided, taking over eastern europe was easy. Later they unified, and expension was no longer possible. Later sultans could not keep on expending, and instead ottoman empire shrunk. Suleiman had created a system too difficult to follow. Ottoman empire shrunk and shrunk, and were unable to develop because of corruption and hostile neighboors on all sides. During the end of the empire, ottoman empire was called "the sick man of Europe", a weak and frail empire. If the turks weren't so barbaric everything could have been better. Kindness is a strenght.

Tolerant to other cultures? Lol the Turks are extremely intolerant towards other cultures, especially the ethnic people of anatolia and East Turkey (the Kurds, Assyrians etc.). The ottomans weren't the problem, nor was the "not being nationalistic enough" vieuws. No, the ottomans were just as racist and nationalistic then the modern Turks. However, their hubris and narcissism caused the downfall of the ottoman empire. They were more busy with religion and were plagued by weak sultans (perhaps because every sultan killed his brothers having a very limited amount of candidates for the throne). Having a kemalist government will not work (we had the past 100 years to see that), however an islamofacist, turk nationalistic leadership like we have now in 2019 won't work either. I suggest a leadership who wishes equality for all, and who better then those who suffered the most (the Kurds). You will know their love and wish for equality to be real because they suffered the most, and only thing the Kurds want is peace and cultural freedom for all. Everyone is free to live.

@REDDEADANDGTACLUB no, we are mixed with some Indo Europeans. Doesn't make us 100% Iranic. Just like the Turks, they are also mixed because of Ottoman conquest. Doesn't change the fact that the Turks are from central Asia now are they?
