He then heads East with a mind to laying down some Ottoman law amongst the wayward Beys. He can count on two powerful friends to help him, the Anatolian Bey of Dulkadir, a man named Șaban Suli and the unwavering Karaside Beylic.
Getting in his way is the rebellious Beylic of Aydin and their crafty leader, Cuneyd. After settling accounts in Izmir, Mehmed makes the risky move of promoting the erstwhile rebel Cuneyd to high office. Any further action in Anatolia is checked by the Timur Empire and Mehmed must deal with Christian opposition to his domains in Rumelia.We don’t get to Sheikh Bedreddin’s Rebellion (Revolution) yet.. but I promise next show we will.28 min - Sultan Mehmed I “The Restorer” & Post Interregnum Headache: Episode 14

Show Synopsis: It is the year 1413 and Prince Mehmed has defeated his three brothers in battle and claimed the Ottoman throne for himself. In certain circles the hope of peace and stability for the Empire grows as the dark days of the Civil War recedes. In other quarters Mehmed’s ascension is greeted with hate, fear, and foreboding as the Christian leaders of Wallachia, Byzantine, and Venice array themselves to take advantage of Ottoman weakness.Across the straits Anatolia is awash in poverty, banditry, and rebellion where all hope has sank in the pits of despair of the past 11 years. The far off Karamanids break off again and the terrible specter of an invasion from the successor state to Timur’s Empire looms large. Amidst the chaos a religious leader arises, Sheikh Bedreddin, who’s movement will change the face of Ottoman policy for the next century.A strategic overview of these challenges are detailed by Frank as the stage is set for Mehmed I to set off and claim his place in history as “The Restorer” of the Ottoman Empire.19 min - Special Announcement!
