I´ll start searchinf some info on the next ruler...
Suleyman the Lawgiver (or, in the West, the Magnificent) is the one who actually conquered Hungary. He also conquered Rhodes and Iraq, vassalized Al-Djazair, built a fleet that dominated the Med, besieged Vienna, and had an alliance with France.
That should give you something to work with.

I failed in diploannexing Alger and Tunis, but at least I made them allies. I also failed in ally myself with England and Holland. I did raise relations with them, but they seemed always be involved in other alliances thus making it impossible. I did how ever expand the Empires territory and never DoW a protestant or reformert nation, so I guss I succed reaching the goals halfways...

”Those fealthy heretics cant be tolerated” Mehmed stated. The tolerance towards the heretic shiites was none, but on the other hand the sunni branch was not only promoted, several mosques was built for the glory of Allah and his faitfull belivers as well. This action by the Sultan led almost immideatly to uprisings in the shiite provinces of the Empire, but Mehmed had great confident in that his loyal soldiers would put out any rebell rising that would occur.
How ever, the current religius policy didnt turn out as expected. A army of revolters had appeared in Isfahan and Mehmed had neglected it, hesitating in sending troops to the area. The result was that the same day the rebells took controll over Isfahan they proclaimed the restored Persia. When other nations heard of this they didnt hesitate to try to take advantage of this oppertunity. If the Sultan couldnt stop rebells maybe he couldnt stop invaders as well. Soon Turkey was involved in wars with nations such as Austria, Poland, Venice and Russia.
It is in the time of wars the true skills of the Sultans appears... He immideatly ordered his armies to invade Austria, Poland as Russia, some smaller armies was ordered to deal with this “restored Persia”. In Europe the turks soon find out that the europeeans had obtained greater technology then themself... when they meet europeans with equal sized armies the europeans won.. “Have Allah abandoned us!” a general wondered. The doubtfull general was of course executed and Mehmed stated “What we cant win with firepower, we will win with pure bravery” and so he sended wave after wave of jannisaries towards his enemies. The europeans was perhaps more skilled but not even they could withstand the massive amount of men that was overwhelming them. Allah hadent abandon them, he had just showned them another way to victory... the way of bravery.
In october 1597 the restored Persia was annexed, making the stability raise to its peak. The people thought the Empire to be strong and agil. A couple of months later Poland offered Belgorod for peace and Mehmed accepted. Poland had also been the leader for the major alliance so now only Venice and Russia was remaining as the main opponents. Most troops was send towards Russia, this bear of the north was to be annihiliated Mehmed thought.
Meantime rebell risings still occured in the shiite provinces, lowering the amount of people in thoose provinces. In 1598 the province of Awhaz was converted into sunni islam.
The war continued. Venice was heavily fortified but was slowly weakend. As for Russia the Empires armies drow the russians further north. In 1600 Venice was captured and annexed. The great merchant city and ancient enemy was now under the Sultans controll. The war in Russia continued. The russians offered peace several times and also fought bravely, forcing the Sultan to send wave after wave against it. Denmark, Russias allies signed a white-peace with the Empire but Mehemd refused any peace offering send by the Tzar. He would like to see Russia totaly destroyed. Finally in Marsh 1603 all the provinces of Russia was controlled by the Sultans armies and Russia was about to be assimilated, when Mehmeds mother put a stop to it, she persuade Mehmed to not assimilate Russia and just take few provinces instead. Mehmed did of course listen to his mother and the Empire signed peace, obtaining three provinces.
Shortly afterwards Mehmed deceased. The year was 1603.
Note: My plan was to annex Russia, but when I tried to do that I found out that I had started the game with Russia as a major... I was a bit frustrated, spending a couple of years trying to beat them and then just find this out, but I have to slapp my self for it cause I did after all start the game this way and should have remember it... I wrote about it as Mehmeds mother stopped him from annexing them...
In game:
Well I didnt DoW any muslim nation, didnt build breveries and had a maximum toleranca aginst sunnites so I guess I made it The only thing I regret is that... mumble mumble... russian thing that didnt work out how I planned, but I have my self to blame for that one

In Sultan Ahmed’s life the number 14 was important. He came to throne in the age of 14, he reigned for 14 years and he was the 14th sultan of the Ottoman Empire.
He had died at the age of 28 because of typhus.
In game:
As 14 seems to be this guys lucky number my goal during his reign will be to try to conquer 14 provinces

My Brilliant Sultan,
This lowly servant humbly suggests that you claim your birthright and conquer Rome, plus any other Italian provs which might "see the glory of Allah".
Or merciful lord, you may rescue the scattered servants of Allah who are still oppressed by the unbelievers in the world, perhaps by starting in the south of Spain.
Course, watch out for that English 66 gunship navy!

The first years of Ahmeds regency passed with recruitment of troops and fighting rebells. Tolerance towards shiites was keept low with th result that the keept revolting. A good thing was how ever that for the glory of Allah some of the provinces was converted to sunni islam.
In 1609 the tolerance towards shiites was raised again and the Sultans attention was turned towards foreign policy. Even more troops was raised and then on a brigh spring morning in April 1611 a war declearation was made towards the evil spaniards. A navy with troops on it was already prepared and they sweept in on the coast of the undefended Murcia and invaded the mainland of Spain. Soon several christian nations such as France, Savoy, Portugal, Genoa and Russia DoWed Turkey aswell.
In April 1612 our forces had harased the mainland of Spain in such a manor that the Spanish King offered the provinces of Murcia, Valencia and Mantua for peace, the Sultan accepted. Meantime the brave forces of the Empire also had invaded Russia so the Tzar was forced to hand over Lugansk and Tambow, also in Northern Italy the war had went good and Savoy soon was forced to cede there province Milan to the Sultans care. All other nations soon signed white peace or was accepting offerings of payments from the Sultan. 6 new provinces was the Sultans gain from this short, well planned and brutal war.
Just for fun...
Turkey has 117 in BB points, making every one hate us, unless they get payed...
As for the wars I have lost about 5 million men from the start, both (3) attrition and (2) battles accounted for. A cheap prize for the greatness of the Empire...
3186 VP making the Ottoman Empire the number one!
A monthly income of about 300

The monthly income is great

Six provinces conquered, eight more to go… As usual troops was recruited during the peace time. In 1615 the Sultan could wait anymore. A war decleration was made towards Austria and Poland. Alger, our allies aided us, but Tunis refused. Instead Tunis declared war upon us soon afterwards. Arnies was send against both Austria, Poland as Tunis. Tunis was an easy target, only defended by an army of 4000 poor equipeded men and was thus annexed in august 1516. Also Austria and Poland was overwhelmed by the numerius forces of the Empire, although they seemed to be better equiped. In november Austria ceded Salzburg and Ostmark, this made the Bavarians feel threatend so they declared war upon us. The armies that had been fighting in Austria was now send deper into Germany.
Poland was soon defeated and signed a peace in december 1516 granting the Empire the provinces of Galizia and Krakow. Soon afterwards it seemed that the Europeans decided to unite against us and nations such as Genoa, Portugal and Spain declared war upon us to. It was in such times when Ahmed I passed away by illness. He had, during his reign, conquered 11 provinces but left the Empire in a dangerous state of war...
In game:
I failed in conquereing 14 provinces. I started the wars to late I suppose... Instead Ahmed was able to conquer 11 provinces in 14 years of reign a medior accomplish I think.

After 14 years of cage life, Mustafa came to throne, but, as a result of his abnormal behaviours the military council and the statesmen dethroned him. Sultan Osman II (Osman the Young) ascended the throne after him. But, the yeniceris dismissed Sultan Osman II and killed him. Mustafa was enthroned again. But, after one and a half year he was dethroned.
Sultan Mustafa I was a very religious man. He was a very gracious ruler. He thrown golden coins to the pool for the servants. He spent his life by reading books about Islam and praying. When he was invited to the throne for the second time he rejected by saying “I am reading the Koran and I do not want to be the Sultan”.
In game:
Well this was a tricky one... I think I just gonna go with the flow on this one... Unless you got any suggestions!?

Well this last Sultan only ruled a couple of months then he dissapeared so there was not much action. I only had time to order some troops movements and a recruitment of another 40 k army, then it was all over...
He left the Empire in a state of war to then...

Sultan Osman was a reformer, he reformed many governmental issues. He limited the authority of the seyhulislam (Minister of Islamic issues) as soon as he ascended the throne.
In game:
1. Sign peace... the Empire have been in war for a long time now. Peace without landlosses is a priority.
2. Reform the governmental issues, by appointing officials.. bailifs and so on....
3. Build at least one Center of Culture.

I checked the monarchs files to see if he would return, but it seems like Osman II will rule until 1622 and then another guy will take over, so I guess Paradox removed him or that my resources are bad...
