@@adamantu True, but a loyal and trusted Chancellor or Vizier is a huge asset. The problem with being the second most powerful person in the kingdom is that it tempts almost all of them to try for the #1 spot. People who are not ambitious rarely rise to such positions of power.

@@ArianaGuerin-pt2bz The situation of Sultan Murad 4 reign wasn't the same as Sultan Suleyman. Suleyman was in the throne when the economic condition of the empire was so strong. On the other side when Sultan Murad 4 came for the throne then the empire was going to sink for corruption and poor economic condition. Sultan Murad 4 took back the glory of Ottoman Empire within a very short time. To do so, he needed to be cruel.
@@sabidkhan9939not to mention the psychological effect of how the Sultan were treated and all the cruelty they have witnessed growing up. It must be hard.. he is the Sultan but he is still human.
I think he was.. but the picture of his brother Sultan Osman being mocked and tortured left a heavy toll in his mind and heart. I think he was kind hearted but the weight of being a Sultan plus the psychological trauma he endured was too much he can bear or probably anyone can handle.❤ the Ottoman’s.!
Murad IV, the Killer machine, was born to Lead, Rule and Kill. He is courageous, clever and cruel at the same time. Unfortunately he died at very young age, otherwise he could have rule the world.
Murad IV, executing his Sister's Husband, something Suleiman couldn't even bear to do because of his emotions and the consequences that came afterwards, Murad had guts, Suleiman was easily carried away by emotions.
Sad cause it seemed Gevherhan loved her husband. Like also when she found out he cheated on her with his mistress and fathered a love child.. I felt sad for her
I feel Sultan suleiman was the strongest Sultan....... Murad was fearless but at his time Ottoman corruption was rampant.... Pashas, jannissaries were more powerful nd defied even Sultan. I wish Suleiman chose Mustafa then his bloodline would have been better than appointing Selim the sensual drinker
He can hold up with one hand a mace that it takes two men to carry. Or at least the two men act as if it's heavy. I wonder if this practice of the Sultan personally executing malefactors influenced Peter the Great. In the documentary about Peter, he was about to have treasonous boyars beheaded. His wimpy pious son told Peter that he, Peter, would not do the dirty work himself, and Peter took the challenge and beheaded each boyar. Turks and Russians were enemies who admired each other (same with Turks and Poles). Lots of formal gatherings, elaborate costuming, and stilted speeches in what I've seen of this series. A little too reverent. All characters behave as if they know their biographers are watching. Today's Turks must greatly admire the rulers from Ottoman days. Reminds me of how some British revere the royal family.
@@miroslavtomic7038 maybe it was a very heavy stand 🤣 In fact it should have been heavier than the mace in order to provide stability so it wouldn't topple over at the slightest and crush someone's foot...

Lots of betraying going on. It'll soon become a headless society, which will make it a bit worrying for those doing the chopping. Good quality series though.
Yes, religion of peace. Justice = Peace, remember that. If I betray you and you family suffers because of that, I shouldn't be approached with peace. Justice upon me is justice upon you and your family.

Being a Grand Vizier was a really dangerous occupation in the Ottoman Empire.
Especially if you are ambitious and arrogant. All of the Grand Viziers who died, all of them brought it on themselves in the final analysis....

And here we see the longest and most powerful valide sultana!

Best Turkish actor!!! Thank you Metin for giving us pleasure!!!
I adored this series. I’ll try and watch it again.
Великолепный Метин с ним не кто не сравнится актерской игрой ❤️💋 эта сцена настолько мощная 😊😍

"You can't rule the state with anger and pride."
What an advice from a loving mother.
Which is kind of ironic coming from her
😂😂😂
They did make some gnarly hats for the pashas back then!
Sultan Murad the last LION king of osmania empire❤
A sultan is absolutely not a king. And it was called the Ottoman Empire.
@@florjanbrudar692 Sultan is an Arabic word that actually means the Wire ruler
Are you forgetting about mehmat the conqueror [the sultan the rasool (PBUH) prophesied about the leader of the army who will take Constantinople?]
Sultan Murad 4, was the Reflection of Suleiman the Magnificent! But unfortunately couldn't rule the empire for a long time!
Suleiman, was not such a cruel ruler as Murad was.

How many of you can predict the weight of Ottoman sultan Murad iv 's mace in this series 🇹🇷?
Comment it below 👇.
70kg
Hard to say. But I'm sure
it was made of solid iron.
Not as heavy as the heart of his sister after…
i have read the true history.From history i can say he was too strong boyh physically and mentally
I think he was.. but the picture of his brother Sultan Osman being mocked and tortured left a heavy toll in his mind and heart. I think he was kind hearted but the weight of being a Sultan plus the psychological trauma he endured was too much he can bear or probably anyone can handle.❤ the Ottoman’s.!
36:03 is the most terrifying
Murad IV, the Killer machine, was born to Lead, Rule and Kill. He is courageous, clever and cruel at the same time. Unfortunately he died at very young age, otherwise he could have rule the world.
He needed therapy for his unresolved childhood trauma.. unfortunately it made him spiral into a bloodthirsty tyrant.. otherwise he was great
Caption's reference to "poker face" makes me wonder how accurate the translations are.
Did they say they don’t trust the sultan and got away with it?
Turks are our magnificent leaders who led under the banner of Islam for over 600 years.
Murad IV, executing his Sister's Husband, something Suleiman couldn't even bear to do because of his emotions and the consequences that came afterwards, Murad had guts, Suleiman was easily carried away by emotions.
But take into account the fact Suleiman was behind his son Mustafa's death.
Sad cause it seemed Gevherhan loved her husband. Like also when she found out he cheated on her with his mistress and fathered a love child.. I felt sad for her
We need to go back to having titles announced prior to our presence… 😊
A puffy hat did not protect.
The slow motion makes sense, Not. A scene of killing takes more than forever or one episode. hahaah ...
Really interesting story. good acting too.. probably going to look to find the entire thing later.😊
a sultana looks and tastes like a raisin
You talk, talk, talk a lot, but the end is always the same. You kill someone.
It is a pattern yes!
I feel Sultan suleiman was the strongest Sultan....... Murad was fearless but at his time Ottoman corruption was rampant.... Pashas, jannissaries were more powerful nd defied even Sultan.

Mustafas was a traitor
@@reitahaugstad9868 and who said that? Don't say you did
No one is talking about the torture at the start
I was wondering what all happened during the time skip.. during Kösem's regency and what led up to the mass imprisonment

Now that’s a price of betrayal 👍👍

Two men carried stand on which mace was placed. Not just the mace.

When they brought out that club mace those sipahis cringed with terror as they knew what it meant
That woman is supposed to be his mother?! She looks no older than him. 😆
people got married in early teens in the past
People in the past didnt live very long & so married early.

@@antred11 Didn't know this. Then why did they marry so early?
Later on the mother even looked younger than her son Ibrahim who was killed by her eventually. Sad but good show.
He's so badass..
Murad a mighty emperor 🎉
Yet he spiraled into paranoia and ruthlessly killed hundreds of people due to his unnecessary bans of coffee, tobacco, wine and opium.
@@20PINKluvropium needed to be banned…..just not any of the rest of what he banned
Love the hats.
the fight scene is ludicrous
Lots of betraying going on. It'll soon become a headless society, which will make it a bit worrying for those doing the chopping. Good quality series though.
Don't you wish the Byzantines won that war.
Constantinople would become more wasteland due to infighting between royal Byzantine dynasty
Byzantine was Long Gone during Sultan Murad time, it was Ended by Sultan Mehmet

I AM MORE OF A SULTAN RATHER THAN A SULTANA IN THIS SERIES 😅🏳️🌈🇵🇸🇹🇷

Yes, religion of peace. Justice = Peace, remember that. If I betray you and you family suffers because of that, I shouldn't be approached with peace. Justice upon me is justice upon you and your family.
