Hurrem to Kosem: How Slaves Ruled the Ottoman Empire

The Ottoman Empire was one of the most powerful and influential empires in history, spanning over six centuries and three continents. But behind the scenes, there was a group of women who played a crucial role in shaping the fate of the empire and its sultans. These women were the wives and mothers of the sultans, who came from humble origins as slaves or concubines, but rose to become the most influential figures in the palace and the state. This period, known as the Sultanate of Women, lasted from 1533 to 1656, and witnessed the emergence of remarkable women such as Hürrem Sultan, Nurbanu Sultan, Safiye Sultan, Kösem Sultan, and Turhan Sultan.

Hürrem, Nurbanu, Safiye weren't slaves since they got married.They were free women.

[aha]

The Sultanate of Women continued untill 1715
Also why is Halime missing?

[zettyaddison]

😂 showing that after Sultan Orhan, Ottoman sultans were children out of wedlock, not married according to Islam, even hurem had children before marriage according to Islam, such hypocrites ruling the Islamic dynasty

Like the Ottomans almost all the mothers of Safavid Shahs of Iran(Persia)were also slave origins and the best example for this was Anna Khanum(concubine of Shah Safi I of safavid Empire and mother of shah Abbas ii of safavid Empire)🇮🇷🇹🇷!

Turhan was born in 1627/28 so she couldn't become Haseki in 1605... Error in the video 11:26 minute
Her son Mehmet was born January 2nd 1642, so she became Haseki that year

Kosam and ahmad family are best and osam family

Yeah, but only the 0, 01 percentage could make it to the top. The other slaves were treated like any other slave in the World. Used as much as the masters could. Italians used as slave-soldiers or dying into mines togheter with subsaharian slaves etc. European women used as house slaves or sex slaves. Slavery was the same in every part of the World. Would not very much liked being kidnapped by pirates only to have a 0.01 percentage of possibility of becoming a wife of a rich merchant or a high
Empires being empires, i know, but i rather like the after human-rights-card World

Hurem and other was not kidnaped by ottoman correct this . Learn rules of otman empiror 1st .
After any war if women lost their family these women's were brought under emperior rules who provide them shelter food and every basic need is want . She was prohibited by making illegal relation with multipul man she was allowed to be in relation of only 1 man if she want or keep happy to emperior, Instead of misused by every 1
