You might say : “ gidene yol yakışır” :)
Discorve was much more difficult than it is now, because a man was asked ‘why?’, and this question forced him to act carefully..
II. Manuel Palaiologos
Manuel babası, ağabeyi ve ağabeyinin oğlu VII. Ioannes ile çekişmeler yaşamış, defalarca iç savaşa tanık olmuştur. 1376-1379 yılları arasında Andronikos tarafından babası ve erkek kardeşi Theodoros ile Anemas Zindanı’na kapatılmıştır. Ayrıca 1382’de babasının Andronikos’u tekrar veliaht ilan etmesi üzerine babasına isyan ederek, Selanik’e gitmiş,
At Lepanto the Ottomans now had a secure forward base on the edge of the Ionian Sea from which to conduct naval operations. During this tense time, Leonardo da Vinci arrived in the city to offer his services as a military engineer. He came with a head full of extraordinary schemes for the city’s defence – a diving suit of pig’s leather with bamboo pipes for air tubes, sketches for submarines . Whatever conversations took place came to nothing. (Two years later he was drawing up proposals to put to Sultan Bayezit for a single-span bridge across the Golden Horn.)
It was the Republic’s policy never to make military alliances with the Ottomans, as the Genoese did, but neither were they in a position to act against them. Always distracted by other wars and by trading interests, and wary of unstable crusading alliances which could leave them dangerously exposed, they watched and waited.
As Hungary’s hold on the Adriatic weakened and the Ottomans drew ever nearer, many of the small cities on the Dalmatian coast that had once struggled so hard against Venice came to seek its protection. When the Ottomans in their turn were thrown into turmoil by civil war, the Republic prospered. Between 1380 and 1420 Venice doubled its land holdings – and almost as importantly its population.
Rise of Ottomans dizisine yanlış kişileri danışman yapmışlar sanırım
Şehrin en sahici fotoğrafı olan makberler, yaşayan ölülere ne kadar duyurmak istiyordur seslerini. Fatih’in kabri, belki de yan caddeden jiple geçerken elindeki sigarasını camdan dışarı sarkıtan hanımefendiye, “Bu topraklarda hem sigara içmek, hem de âşufte suretinde dolaşmak yasaktır.” diyordur. Fakat kim duyar, duysa da kim dinler ki?

Çaldıran Savaşı ile Safevi Yayılmacılığının Durması
The defeat at Chaldiran ended the first phase of Safavid history. Geographically, the Safavids lost only the province of Diyar Bakr, but the momentum of expansion was gone. Ismail, who had been a charismatic, aggressive leader, became passive. He never led his troops in battle again. Of the last ten years of his reign, there is little to report. The establishment phase of the Safavid Empire ended with a Qizilbash confederation ruling Azerbaijan, Iraq, western Iran, and Khurasan. It confronted the Ottomans in the west and Uzbeks in the east and was committed to Shii Islam as the religion of the general population.
Unlike earlier wars in Europe, the Long War produced no profit. The jalali disorders disrupted the economy of much of Anatolia. The timar army cost the central treasury almost nothing in cash; the central army and the sekban required cash payment, but the dwindling number of sipahis and the need for the larger armies that only the sekban could provide forced the Ottomans to alter the provincial financial, administrative, and military structure. They transferred much of the provincial revenue from timar holders to tax farmers and used the revenue to support sekban infantry rather than sipahi cavalry. This policy reflected not the military
obsolescence of the sipahis but their dwindling numbers, the need for
larger armies, and the interests of the qapiqullar.
As soon as the 1559 Treaty of Cateau-Cambrésis ended hostilities between France and the Hapsburgs, Phillip II, who had taken the thrones of Spain and Naples on the abdication of his father, Charles V, in 1555, immediately organized a major naval expedition against the corsair base at the island of Jerba, off the coast of Tunisia. The Hapsburgs conquered the island, but in 1560 the Ottoman fleet under Piyale Pasha defeated the Hapsburg fleet there. In 1565, the Ottomans attempted to conquer Malta, which had become the base of the Knights of St. John after Sulayman drove them from Rhodes. The knights, under their grand master Jean Parisot de la Valette, won renown for the epic defense. The Ottomans withdrew before a relief force arrived.
Canım İstanbul
Celile, üzerinde Chemins de Fer Ottomans D'Antolie yazılı bileti, Haydarpaşa Garı'nın kapısında bekleyen görevliye uzatırken, dönüp bir kez daha baktı, elini uzatsa yakalayacakmış gibi yakın duran Sultanahmet ve Ayasofya camilerine.

Genel tanımla IV. Muraď'ın 17 yıllık saltanatı iki evreye ayrılır. İlk evre, 12 yaşında tahta çıkışından itibaren, annesi Kösem Mahpeyker'in naibeliğinde geçen çocuk padişahlığıdır ki, 17-18 yaşına değin sürmüştür. Kösem Sultan, Hareme ve yönetime egemen olabilmek amacıyla bu yıllar boyunca oğlunun, "Haremden uzak" Enderûn ortamında oyalanmasını gözetmiş; Murad da bu yönlendirme nedeniyle Hasodanın genç zülüflü ağalarıyla gece gündüz eğlenmiş, spor yapmış, at binmiş, cirit, lobut müsabakalarına katılmış; o ortamdaki cinsel sapmalara eğilim göstermiş. İkinci evre, gençlik ve ataklık çağına girip iktidarı kavradığı 1630'lu yıllardır. Bu evrede de eğiliminde değişiklik olmamakla birlikte, Doğu'ya yaptığı iki büyük sefer, İstanbul dışındaki gezileri, Haremden çoğunca uzak kalmasını gerektirmiştir. The Structure of the Ottomans Dynasty'deki “IV. Murad Ailesi" tablosunda hasekilerinin adlarını veremeyen Alderson, "Eşlerinden hiçbirinin adının kaydedilmemiş olması şüphe uyandırıyor," demekle haklıdır.

7 AMAZING SIGHTS YOU’LL NEVER SEE, BECAUSE HUMANS RUINED THEM
The Parthenon
One of the jewels of Ancient Greece, until in 1687 the Ottomans used it as a gunpowder store during a war with Venice. One lucky Venetian shot later—no more Parthenon.
Temple of Artemis
One of the actual Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, until 356 BCE, when a bloke called Herostratus burned it down because he wanted attention.
Boeung Kak Lake
The largest and most beautiful lake in the Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh, until it was decided to pump it full of sand to build luxury apartments on it. Now a puddle.
Buddhas of Bamiyan
The magnificent statues of Gautam Buddha in central Afghanistan, over a hundred feet tall, were blown up by the Taliban in 2001 because they were “idols.” FFS.
Nohmul
A great Mayan pyramid, the finest Mayan remains in Belize, was torn down in 2013 by some building contractors because they wanted gravel for nearby roadworks.
Slims River
A vast river in Canada’s Yukon territory that completely vanished in the space of four days in 2017, as climate change caused the glacier it flowed from to retreat.
Ténéré Tree
Famously the most isolated tree on the planet, alone in the middle of the Sahara Desert—until 1973, when despite it being the only tree for 250 miles, a drunk driver still managed to drive his truck into it.

Defending India and the empire thus also meant a strong diplomatic and naval British presence in the Near East where Russia or France, together or separately, might try to break up the Ottoman Empire and share out its provinces. Russia’s claim to protect the Ottomans’ Christian subjects, their forward base in the Caucasus, where they maintained a large army, and the tsars’ longstanding ambition to rule Constantinople (Tsargrad) and master the Straits, were a source of constant unease. Neither did the British forget Napoleon’s Egyptian invasion: all French interest in Egypt was viewed with suspicion.
