The Ottoman Empire * * *Download for FREE on Kindle Unlimited + Free BONUS Inside!* * * Read On Your Computer, MAC, Smartphone, Kindle Reader, iPad, or Tablet. Over the course of just two hundred years, the Ottoman Empire grew from a small, obscure Anatolian state into the most powerful Muslim nation in the world, controlling vast swathes of the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and North Africa. Within the empire science, medicine, technology, and art flourished, and the Ottoman army became one of the most feared and efficient fighting forces in existence. Then came a period of gradual decline. Beset by external enemies and torn apart by conflicting elements inside, over the next three hundred and fifty years the Ottoman Empire lost power, territory, and prestige until it became “the sick man of Europe.” Inside you will read about... ✓ Emergence of the Ottoman Dynasty ✓ The Fall of Constantinople ✓ Selim the Grim and Suleiman the Magnificent ✓ Sultanate of Women ✓ The Crimean War ✓ Decline Until World War I And much more! This is the dramatic story of the rise, fall, and eventual disintegration of the Ottoman Empire, of its conquests and defeats, and of its sultans who ranged from the grandeur of Suleiman the Magnificent to the obsession and confusion of Mustafa the Mad. The story begins with the dream of the first Ottoman sultan, Osman I, in 1300, and ended with the nightmare of the last sultan, Abdulmejid II, in 1922. This is the story of the Ottoman Empire, from beginning to end. Read more
Review
“Hourly History” offers free short books written in easy to read English on Amazon that contain significant history every Friday. The books can be read in their entirety in an hour. This book on the Ottoman Empire is only 39 pages, but it contains the significant information we should know about the empire, its impact upon history, and how the insufficiently thought-out division of the defeated empire still effects the middle east today. It also tells us how the Muslims in the empire put a halt to the expansion of Christianity by repeatedly defeating the Crusaders, especially in 1444 and 1453. The Hourly History free books are very informational. On November 2, 2018, for example, the free books were: Babylon, Anne Frank, Spartacus and the Slave Wars, Byzantine Empire, Hittites, and Alexander the Great. Information about Hourly History can be found on the internet at [email protected] short book also tells us about the emergence of the Ottoman dynasty from a small fiefdom to one of the most powerful empires in the world and the most influential Muslim state ever. We learn about significant people such as Suleiman the Magnificent and how when the sultans were too young or too weak, the empire was run by their mothers. The empire’s history was impacted by many things which the book explains, such as the great schism of the Roman Empire in 1054, the Russian threat, the Crimean War of 1856, and incompetency. The most fatal step was that the empire joined the side of Germany in World War I. One of many immoral acts by the empire was their murder of about two million Armenians.
