Suleiman the Magnificent is regarded as the greatest ruler of the Ottoman Empire.
Suleiman the Magnificent certainly earned his name. He not only had a huge impact on the history of Turkey and the Middle East but also on the European politics of his day, allying himself with France against the Habsburgs of Spain. He is also known for his life-long love affair with Roxelana, a slave girl who became his wife and, some say, co-ruler of the empire.
The exploits of this legendary ruler come to life in this audiobook. Enjoy a thrilling story of a man who changed history and brought the Ottoman Empire to new heights.
In this audiobook, you will find out:
Why Suleiman was a master goldsmith as well as a sultan
How he became a major patron of the arts, employing the famous architect Sinan and changing the skyline of Istanbul
Why he is known to the Turks as “Suleiman the Law Maker (Kanuni)”
How close he came to taking Vienna-twice!-and why he failed
How the Ottoman Empire was run almost exclusively by former Christian slaves
How Suleiman’s faithful slave Ibrahim rose to be Grand Vizier-and how he fell from favor
How Suleiman was responsible for the execution of two of his sons
Why Egypt was so important to the Ottoman Empire
And how Suleiman may have been ultimately responsible for the creation of the croissant!

Magnificent hat, @ any r8. If anyone dared to wear a larger hat I’d say Suleiman would lose the head.

He’s got a coffin on his ‘ed? I’ve heard it all now! It’s quite big enough to be a coffin, for him - & a slave or 2 thrown in (literally). He’d be a right barrel of fun at parties, turning up with his coffin atop his pate. A real debbie downer.
You possibly meant to say “shroud” - coffin is a different kettle of fish altogether.
But, technically, if worn on the head, hat is a tolerably acceptable designation. We wouldn’t identify our favourite jacket as a piece of garden furniture, for inst.
