As a British lady who was educated in schools here, we were taught absolutely nothing about the Ottoman Empire in my day. I became interested in Suleiman's era in my late 60's a few years ago and I'm fascinated by his reign and the life of others that served him in this period. Apart from having his best friend Pargali Ibrahim murdered and also his own son Mustafa along with various others who he illiminated because of loyalty only to him is henious. Saying that however, he did have magnificent mosques and other beautiful structures built. He brought culture through the arts with only the best artisans encouraged to teach others through his schools. I appreciate your knowledge and reseach in your work making these videos. Thank you so much, very interesting.
Have you watched Magnificent Century tv series. It is about Suleiman's reign. There is a spinoff Magnificent Century Kosem. It takes place about 2 sultan later. It is on UA-cam just type English subtitles after the series name. They take dramatic licence like all historical TV dramas but it is amazing. The acting, sets, costumes are amazing. It shows how people dealt with the pressures of the palace. The harem is not a sexy fantasy garden. It like the Thunderdome. The Sultana are constantly fighting for power so their son will become Sultan. Why, because the sons that don't are killed by their brother who gains the throne. It is a wonderful show plus if you like doing research you can look all the characters up and if they were real ( some are not but are put to fill plot holes but most are) you can find all kinds of things. When you watch you will find Mustafa death was from a bunch of police rageling over years.
Bhai aap jo character name mention krte ho screen pr vo show nhi hote sahi se ..kyuki di gyi information k niche hide ho jate h plsss isko sahi kriye aage se ... information bht achi thi ❤
What's tragic about this man is, historically there was no record or evidence that he committed any major crime or treachery. The series exaggerated his character and showed him doing many vile acts so that Suleiman's decision would seem justified. But in reality He simply got executed because of the pragmatic games of power and politics. Suleiman saw him as a threat because he constantly was getting promoted and almost became equal to Suleiman. Then Suleiman executed him because he or any ruler would have never wanted anyone else beside him having equal authority and power like the ruler. It's not that he was a saint. He did overstepped his boundaries couple of times too and sometimes acted arrogantly. The question is why wouldn't he ?, also in reality Ibrahim was not a slave . He was freed by Suleiman long ago and was a independent man. And he was older than Suleiman by age. He was basically Suleiman's advisor and guided Suleiman since he was a prince. So being a free man , having equal authority as the sultan, being this close to him and his long time advisor and mentor. And still not ever going arrogant and nor having any disagreements with the sultan is completely impossible. it's tragic that historically Pargali even resigned multiple times and warned Suleiman about it. Suleiman kept increasing his power again and again and when he felt threatened he immediately murdered. If it wasn't in the history that pargali didn't want to resign or begged to not give him promotion , then it shouldn't have been said but he did . So I think Pargali was actually a victim of the situation. Rather than a criminal
Hay diferentes teorías: Ibrahim empezó a actuar como sultán y Suleiman no podía permitir que eso sucediera. O Hurrem no quería que Ibrahim apoyara a Mustafa para convertirse en el próximo sultán.
historians are divided on what her role was: according to some, she was a high-ranking lady in the administration of the harem, according to others she was one of the consort of Süleyman and mother of Şehzade Murad (and/or Raziye Sultan), and who, after death of her son, became a lady-in-waiting and hostess of the harem by virtue of her qualities and closeness to the sultan, instead of being exiled to the province as tradition.
Yes, you are right. Damat literally means The Groom in Turkish. There is no recording of who Ibrahim's bride was. Early historians assumed she could be Suleiman's sister due to the richness of the wedding ceremony and the attendance list including the sultan. This was widely accepted for a long time and the Damat Ibrahim Pasha name used. Very lately, studies on this subject, especially by historian Ebru Turan (University of Chicago, PhD) including the discovery of multiple references to Muhsine in Venetian and Ottoman texts as well as a signed letter from her to Ibrahim, shows that Ibrahim's wife was Muhsine and not Hatice. I found this new info credible and decided to use it in the video.
She did manipulate him. Look at history: She became his legal wife, had more than one son, never left the palace. He changed so many traditions for her. Her fear would be a very strong motivator. There were many writings from Suleiman that reflected his regret for killing Pargoli Ibrahim Pasha. She manipulated him by making him paranoid. Hence the killing of Mustafa as well. She wasn’t stupid at all. Smiling on the surface all the while.
Bisexuality was common especially among European royalty in the Middle Ages. But I haven’t seen any source on that subject related to Suleiman. Thanks for your comment 👍
He was the lover of Suleiman they had physical relationship which ended when Hurrem came and this became the reason of the jealousy of Ibrahim to Hurrem and the war started
@@Sabakhan98234 I have read a lot of Ottoman history including.... Osman's dream......the relationship between the sultan and Ibrahiim was too close...not that of a master and slave..one theory posits that the sultan realized ibrahim had an affair with another man hence his raging jealousy. ibrahim was never a threat nor a rival for power as he was still Suleimans slave..So his execution may have been a "crime of passion "by the Sultan and of course due to Hurrems jealousy!. Of course most Turkish historians want to paint a pretty picture ...not the dark cruel side of the Ottoman Empire
This was one of the best seried i ever saw i also read the book ehich was partcularly interested Inrahim was Greek soaybe this is why i liked him do he was called thg greelk vezirl

Wow, thank you! And thanks for your contribution.
Yes why not study about all the other colonies United Kingdom ruled rather than another history of another empire

Please translate into Indonesian, because I'm a fan of this channel
Thanks for following 👍👍. Would it help if I add Indonesian subtitles?
Pero no dices porqué Suleiman mato a Ibrihim. ? Cual fue el detonante o motivación para hacerlo?
Hay diferentes teorías: Ibrahim empezó a actuar como sultán y Suleiman no podía permitir que eso sucediera. O Hurrem no quería que Ibrahim apoyara a Mustafa para convertirse en el próximo sultán.
Excelente información
Muchas gracias 👍
Topkapi Palace in its archives says Mahidevran had more childern.Not just Mustafa.Most likely they died of illness or poisoning.
Thanks for your contribution 👍
I thought Gulfem gave birth to 2 of Sulyman's children?

Zrobione. Ale to tłumaczenie Google.
I think that Ibrahim he did really marry sultan sister as he was known as Damat ibrahim as Damat called to men whoo married sultan sister or daughter
Yes, you are right. Damat literally means The Groom in Turkish. There is no recording of who Ibrahim's bride was.

Wo0ooO0w keep it up more on kosem plzzzzzz
Working on it 😊
Is the narrator AI or a real person?
In this video narrator is AI generated 👍
This is not proven that Sultana Hurram was the cause of Pargali's death.
That is right. Thanks for your comment.
She did manipulate him. Look at history: She became his legal wife, had more than one son, never left the palace. He changed so many traditions for her. Her fear would be a very strong motivator. There were many writings from Suleiman that reflected his regret for killing Pargoli Ibrahim Pasha. She manipulated him by making him paranoid. Hence the killing of Mustafa as well. She wasn’t stupid at all. Smiling on the surface all the while.
So who killed Mustafa?
There is more on that in my video of Hurrem Sultan.
No good deed goes unpunished. These are the characters beyond their times. A very well structured story both verbally as well as great illustrations
His father had him killed.
Sad😢
Agree 😞
😮😮😮they say ibrahim WAS lover of suleiman 😮😢😅😂
