He started his career as a simple secondary Imam in the Turkish regiments, then moved to a government position when the war ended.He was eventually appointed as an Emir in Syria and gained a name for himself as an excellent and honest administrator.

A fierce fighter of corruption, he enacted many successful reforms, balanced the budget and led the war against the Rum.

MattyG said:Subsequent monarchs reinforce this overall policy and new ideas from the West are afforded status in the Caliphate. The final result occurs some time before the reign of Salim III, which is the conversion of the Caliphate to Orthodox tech group. This event would simply have an offset of about 10000 days.
