The Ottoman Empire was so big, and lasted for so long, yet, it is one of those empires that many common people have forgotten about. In the 20th century, World War I destroyed much of what was left of the empire, and the Turkish state and culture was being established shortly after that. In this comprehensive guide to understanding more about historical events, you will learn more about the sultans, and citizens of the Ottoman Empire - their drive, their background, and their accomplishments throughout the centuries.

The fall of Constantinople in 1453 marked a number of significant historical turning points. It saw the end of the last vestige of the Roman Empire, which had been founded more than 1,400 years before, and marked the beginning of a period of dominance for the growing Ottoman Empire. Furthermore, this moment marked the end of the Middle Ages in Europe and the beginning of the Renaissance, as the fall of Constantinople was directly linked to both these events.

The beginning of modern Europe was a time of confusion, excitement, suspicion, hope, despair, and ideas. It was a time of a lot of change spread out over just a few hundred years, but the end result was a completely different world than the one that had come before it. This audiobook includes details of the transition from the Middle Ages to the early modern era, where Europe saw significant shifts across the continent in phases.

Where did writing, culture, and agriculture begin? The Middle East is the cradle of civilization - where humankind once roamed in small groups of hunter-gatherers and foraged for food and shelter, then learned to plant crops and build structures. Today, we are an advanced civilization that has conquered the skies, oceans, and even the moon. To understand how this transformation occurred, take a brief trip back into the history of the Middle East, where it all began.

Bu roman, kendilerini, varlığının her zerresi ile Devleti Ebed Müddet'e adamış Osmanlılar'ın, serhadherdeki hikayesini anlatır. Şahısların hemen hepsi birer adsız kahramandır. İmparatorluğa sadakat ve nefsini pervasızca feda edişlerdeki şaşırtıcı büyüklükler, mübalağa gibi görünebilir. Fakat, Avrupa'daki Türk ihtişam ve gücünü başka türlü izah etmek de mümkün değildir. Osmanlı, "Büyük Dava"sını ancak böylesine sarsılmaz bir iman, zeka ve hareket seli içinde hakim kılabilirdi. Romanın kuruluşu, olayların sıralanışı ustaca ve çarpıcıdır.

Vom demokratischen Aufbruch zur Autokratie – über einen beunruhigenden Wandel. Seit seiner Machtübernahme 2002 hat Recep Tayyip Erdoğan einen radikalen Wandel in der Türkei eingeleitet. Das Land, das einst eine Säule des westlichen Bündnisses war, betreibt eine militaristische Außenpolitik, die sich von Bergkarabach bis Libyen in regionale Krisenherde einmischt. Sein früheres demokratisches Streben, u. a. um eine EU-Mitgliedschaft, ist einer gefährlichen Ein-Mann-Herrschaft gewichen.

Attilâ, Peyami Safa'nın yegâne tarihî romanıdır. Peyami Safa bu romanıyla, Attilâ gibi büyük bir Türk cihangirinin devrine ve kişiliğine ilk defa bir Türk gözüyle bakmış, Batı dünyasının “geçtiği yerde ot bitmez” diye karaladığı bir devlet adamı ve kumandanını Türk gözüyle tasvir etmiştir. Peyami Safa, Attilâ'yı yazarken yabancı kaynaklardan ve özellikle Bizans tarihçilerinin verdiği bilgilerden oldukça istifade etmiştir. Çelik iradeli, demir disiplinli bu Türk hakanının yalnızca bir devlet adamı ve kumandan olarak değil, şahsî ilişkilerde yumuşak huylu.

Whereas for much of human history slavery was somewhat arbitrary, in its later forms, it often had a discriminatory component, typically based on race, ethnicity, nationality, or religion. This distinction shows how the practitioners of slavery justified the practice in terms of ideology, and Slavic people were discriminated against within the Ottoman Empire. Slavs had lived in the lands of today’s Eastern European region for centuries.

Sorto nel XV secolo sulle rovine dello stato selgiuchide e di Bisanzio, l'impero ottomano si estende rapidamente sino alle frontiere dell'Austria-Ungheria, in Medio Oriente e nell'Africa settentrionale. Questo volume ne ripercorre la storia politica dalle origini all'apogeo, e poi fino alla sua disgregazione, cominciata già nel XVII secolo e consumatasi nel corso dell'Ottocento, con il risveglio dei nazionalismi balcanici e sotto la spinta imperialista delle nuove potenze industriali.

Lawrence of Arabia is one of the most iconic figures of the First World War, seen by many as a heroic and romantic guerrilla leader in a period of savage and deeply impersonal industrial warfare. While Lawrence himself has been the subject of many biographies and an award-winning film, the context of his war in the desert, and his ideas on war itself, are less well-known. Lawrence of Arabia on War is a study of those ideas and of his campaign of irregular warfare which has informed tactical theory and decision-making down to the present day.

Gallipoli: the mere name summons the story of this well-known campaign of the First World War. And the story of Gallipoli, where in August 1915 the Allied forces made their last valiant effort against the Turks, is one of infamous might-have-beens. If only the Allies had held out a little longer, pushed a little harder, had better luck, Gallipoli might have been the decisive triumph that knocked the Ottoman Empire out of the First World War.

El Imperio Otomano se alió con Alemania y Austria-Hungría en la Primera Guerra Mundial. Esto resultó, entre otras consecuencias catastróficas, en la guerra que duró dos años más de lo que debería, las dos revoluciones rusas de 1917 y la dictadura bolchevique, el genocidio del pueblo armenio, quince millones de muertos y el desmembramiento del Imperio Otomano, con el nacimiento de una miríada de nuevos Estados en Oriente Medio cuya inestabilidad social, económica y política sigue sin resolverse un siglo después.

The destruction of the Armenians of the Ottoman Empire in 1915-16 was the greatest atrocity of World War I. Around one million Armenians were killed, and the survivors were scattered across the world. Although it is now a century old, the issue of what most of the world calls the Armenian Genocide of 1915 is still a live and divisive issue that mobilizes Armenians across the world, shapes the identity and politics of modern Turkey, and has consumed the attention of U.S. politicians for years.

Se Atatürk volle una Turchia laica e occidentale, oggi Erdogan va nella direzione opposta. Il paese sta assistendo infatti a una rapidissima reislamizzazione, segno che ottant'anni di laicismo di stato non hanno mai scalfito davvero l'islamismo delle masse. Dopo il recente golpe mancato, impadronitosi di ogni apparato statale, abbandonato ogni discorso europeo, Erdogan mira a far diventare la Turchia leader di un'area vastissima (che ricalca quella dell'antico impero ottomano) e paese guida dei sunniti.

Istanbul, com'è stata chiamata fin dalla conquista ottomana del 1453, ma com'è denominata ufficialmente solo all'indomani della Prima guerra mondiale. "Nèa Ryme", Nuova Roma, secondo il suo nome ufficiale. Costantinopoli, il suo vero nome, da sempre e per sempre. Un nome che evoca immagini mirabili: il sogno dell'Oriente, le lontananze raggiungibili attraverso il Bosforo e l'Anatolia. Le moschee, gli harem, i sufi danzanti, gli aromi dei bazar. Da mezzo millennio l'Europa identifica in quella sola città il prezioso anello di congiunzione fra l'antichità perduta e la modernità.

In terms of geopolitics, perhaps the most seminal event of the Middle Ages was the successful Ottoman siege of Constantinople in 1453.
