I have made a research while writing a story.

There was a time period named *Sultanate of women* it started in 1533, after Sultan Suleiman Khan married Hurrem Sultan and ended at 1683 after the death of Turhan Hatice Sultan.

The most powerful women of this time were Hurrem Sultan, Mihrima Sultan, NurBanu Sultan, Mahpeyker Kosem Sultan and Turhan Hatice Sultan.
Most of the entered the palace as young slaves, bore the Sultan's heir and became an influence in sultan's life . But Mihrima was different . She was Sultan Suleiman Khan's daughter .

💚Hurrem Sultan : Hurrem's life was more or less like an fairy tale. Ottomans captured her at a young age and took her to Topkapi palace as slave. Suleiman the magnificent loved her so much that he broke many established rule of their dynasty for her . Suleiman married Hürrem in a magnificent ceremony in either 1553 or 1534. The marriage broke the 200-year old custom of the Ottoman empire according to which the sultans should not marry their concubines. Thus, Hürrem became Suleiman’s legal wife.
Hürrem was the first sultan’s favourite to receive the Haseki Sultan title. That title elevated her to the status higher than that of the Ottoman princesses, equal to the Empress title in European courts.

📍Ottomans used this title for further 100 years, primarily during the Sultanate of Women era. In addition to being freed from slavery, the Haseki Sultan title elevated Hürrem, the former slave, to one of the highest societal positions.

📍Hürrem had six children with Suleiman and one of her sons – Selim – became the sultan, after his father’s death. But, she never held the Valide Sultan title, because she died much earlier.
This broke another rule of the Ottoman harem: one concubine mother – one son. Suleiman allowed Hürrem to have more than one son, in fact she gave him five sons.
📍One more tradition that Suleiman broke because of Hürrem was that she remained in the imperial palace in Istanbul all her life. Traditionally, the sultan’s sons would leave the harem and the palace at the age of 16 or 17, to govern faraway provinces, in preparation of becoming sultans one day.The mothers would also leave with their sons and would come back to the Topkapi Palace only if their son became the new sultan. But, Hürrem stayed in the palace with her youngest hunchback son Cihangir.

💚Mihrima Sultan : Mihrimah Sultan was not a slave. As the only daughter of Suleiman the Magnificent and Hürrem Sultan, she was the most powerful princess in history of the Ottoman empire.

📍Mihrimah’s power came from two sides. First of all, she was Suleiman’s beloved daughter, plus she had a very powerful mother. She lived at the time when the Ottoman Empire reached its peak and flourished under the Suleiman’s reign

📍Mihrimah married Rüstem Pasha when she was 17 years old. Rüstem Pasha (Rustem-Paša Opuković) was devşirme, either Serbian or Croatian slave, who became Suleiman’s Grand Vizier.

📍It’s very likely that Mihrimah remained in the Topkapi Palace and shared power with new Valide Sultan – Nurbanu Sultan, the mother of Sultan Murad III.

Additionally, Mihrimah was certainly more powerful than Murad’s wife – Safiye Sultan.

💚 Nurbanu Sultan : One more slave girl that held the ultimate power in the Ottoman Empire was Nurbanu Sultan. She was the legal wife and Haseki Sultan of Sultan Selim II.After Selim’s death, she became Valide Sultan, as the mother of Sultan Murad III.

📍There are different theories about her origin. Most likely, she was from the Venetian Republic and her original name may have been Cecilia Venier-Baffo. Interestingly, she was very pro-Venetian during her nine year regency. The Republic of Genoa hated her because of that. This fact also points at her probable Venetian origin.

📍The same as Hürrem Sultan, she remained in the Topkapi Palace during Selim’s reign. Selim often asked Nurbanu for her advice on various subjects, because he respected her good judgement and she acted as his adviser.

📍When Sultan Selim II died, she hid his body for 12 days, which allowed her son Şehzade Murad to reach Istanbul from Manisa and take power. Thus, she prevented anyone else from sitting on the throne.When her son became the new sultan, she became Valide Sultan, the highest position for a woman within the Ottoman Empire.

📍Nurbanu was the first wife of a sultan to be buried next to her husband, because that wasn’t the Ottoman tradition.

💚Safiye Sultan : The next powerful woman in the Sultanate of Women was Safiye Sultan. She was Haseki Sultan and the chief consort of Sultan Murad III. She became very powerful after Nurbanu’s and especially after Murad’s death. Her son became the new sultan – Mehmed III – and she became Valide Sultan. It means that she also held two most powerful titles within the Ottoman Empire.
Safiye lived in the Topkapi Palace during the reign of seven sultans: Suleiman the Magnificent, Selim II, Murad III, Mehmed III, Ahmed I, Mustafa I and Osman II.
She held the ultimate power between 1595 and 1603 and ran the empire together with Gazanfer Ağa, the Chief White Eunuch.

💚Kosem Sultan: Kösem Sultan, or Mahpeyker Sultan, reigned with supreme control and was undoubtedly one of the most famous women in history of the Ottoman empire.

📍Kösem also arrived to the Topkapi Palace as a slave, but she soon became Haseki Sultan as the favourite consort and later the legal wife of Sultan Ahmed I.After his death, she became Valide Sultan, as the mother of Sultan Murad IV and Sultan Ibrahim.

📍After the death of Sultan Murad III in December 1603, Ahmed became the new sultan. Additionally, Safiye Sultan lost her status and she moved to the Old Palace in January 1604.Ahmed’s mother, Handan Sultan, became Valide Sultan, but she died a year later. As Kösem was Haseki Sultan at the time, she took the top position within the imperial harem.

📍Sultan Ahmed I died in 1617, at the age of 27. At the time of his death, Ottomans abolished fratricide and implemented a new “Rule of Elderness”.Kösem may have had something to do with this new policy. She would’ve certainly wanted to prevent the killing of her young sons. After Ahmed’s death, his half-brother become Sultan Mustafa I.But, Kösem lost her status in the harem, she was no longer Haseki Sultan.

📍Mustafa’s mother, Halime Sultan, became new Valide Sultan. However, Mustafa was deposed due to his poor mental health.After that, Ahmed’s oldest son, whom he had with another woman, became Sultan Osman II, but he was killed by Janissaries in 1622.Mustafa came to the throne once again, but the Ottomans removed him after just over a year and locked him in a cage, until his death.

📍After all these events, Kösem’s oldest son became Sultan Murad IV, at the age of 11. She became Valide Sultan and as Murad was too young to rule, she became the official regent, until 1632.
But, she ruled the empire during the most of Murad’s reign and attended the meetings of Divan (the cabinet) behind a curtain.

📍After Murad’s death, her mentally unstable son Ibrahim became the sultan, whom Ottomans deposed and killed, with Kösem’s consent.

After Ibrahim, Kösem’s seven years old grandson became Sultan Mehmed IV. She declared herself regent for the third time and ruled supremely for 3 years.

📍According to the rule, Mehmed’s mother, Turhan Hatice Sultan should’ve become Valide Sultan. But, she was overlooked because she was young and inexperienced.

💚Turhan Hatice Sultan : After Kösem’s death, Turhan Hatice Sultan became Valide Sultan. Her son, Sultan Mehmed IV was 6 years old when he became the sultan, so Turhan ruled the empire as the official regent.

📍She had the supreme power. She was the only Valide Sultan that shared the running the empire with her son, in which she surpassed Kösem. Her son loved her, respected her and considered her his co-ruler.

📍She is buried in a mausoleum opposite the New Mosque, together with her son Sultan Mehmed IV.
