For a long time, the Ottomans were the horror of the Europeans. within a very short time, the Ottoman Empire expanded from a small Anatolian state to a world power. the defining and unifying values were clear, bravery and Islam that held the empire together for centuries.

Since 1570, the Ottoman Sultan has automatically been the Caliph of Islam and thus the protector and representative of the Islamic world. Admired by the Islamic world and hated by the West, the Ottoman Empire moves into the new age.

The Ottoman Empire kept all its subjects faithful and equal, no matter if they were Muslim, Christian or Jewish. When Fatih Sultan Mehmet conquered Constantinople, he assured his new subjects that they would not be forced into either religion or culture. This is still true today; The Empire offers all its subjects freedoms that no other empire grants.... But is this not too risky?

dark clouds are gathering. The Eternal State, the glorious Ottoman Empire, caliphate and protector of the entire Islamic world, the rulers of the Balkans and the Middle East, the conquerors of Constantinople, the (almost) besiegers of Vienna seem to be receding.

European powers are trying to unleash uprisings that are spreading in the Balkans and other parts of the empire in order to weaken us and our authority! Minorities demand freedom! Total independence! Our economic and research capabilities are lagging behind, as the Janissaries have made reforms impossible in the past... But now you are Sultan, YOU must make the right decisions to keep the Eternal Empire alive and reawaken it. Lead the Ottoman Empire back to a glorious age! For God and the Sultan!
