Great civilization
Not a great example of an Islamic empire tho

 

[Aurelian]

Was nice, it would be also nice if it kept dead.

 

[Lahaine]

They were a great empire but each battle they fought or won they always had high casualties you wonder how did they last so long. Glad it ended.

They were a great empire I like because of the fact colonialism and forcing their culture and language didn't happen unlike other empires.
Nowhere outside of turkey will you see Turkish language and culture being present or dominant.
However the way the empire was run was very inefficient.

The Arabs grew weak and so the natural order for the past 3 thousand years or so of middle eastern history in which the mountain dwellers of anatolia or Perisa ruled the middle east happened again.
The ottomans were like a muslim continuation of the byzantines who were also based out of anatolia and ruled the middle east.

Had the turks not invaded and assimilated the anatolians, we would have saw the middle east be ruled by a hundred million Christian greeks. Judging by the massive Greek influence on Coptic Egyptians, it's likely the greeks would've been spending at least a thousand years christianising and Hellenising the area. Nightmare fuel for any muslim.

Especially as the byzantines had contact with Ethiopia and Christian Sudan. The Solomon dynasty was trying to invade the lowland Islamic Somali lands and they burned down zelia which led to Ahmad Gurey and the Adalites invading Ethiopia and burning down churches and towns in revenge. Had the Christian Sudan and Byzantines been around Somalis would be finished by the Christian empires. Either Christianised or assimilated.

They did a lot of good and a lot of bad. They were one of the last great Islamic empires

Their failure to industrialize led to its gradual downfall,

Greatest muslim empire of all time. They even went all to way salzburg

 

[attash]

It was one of the greatest Muslim empires in history. During their reign, there was peace in the Middle East for 400 years (aside from occasional disruptions like Napoleon's and Muhammad Ali's campaigns). They have always been the Somali people's closest ally, giving us aid against encroaching kuffar colonisers from the time of Ahmad Gurey to the time of the Sayyid.

Had the House of Osman continued their reign over the Ummah, the Middle East would be a far more peaceful and developed place today. Instead, we have the House of Saud as our leaders.

 

[Garaad Awal]

Good riddance

 

[AbwaanCali]

They were the last khilafa. The loss of the Ottoman Empire has been disastrous for the ummah.

[Burqad]

The only empire to not have invaded us and so they are good.

A lot of bad things that happen to Arab countries is because some Arabs betrayed the caliph like they betrayed and tried to kill the prophets (SAW).
