Gunduz son Ertugrula Biography

OK became aware why the throne Osmanov was inherited by Orhan-the youngest son of Osman Gazi, and not Alladdin-the son of Bali-Khatun, interest in the history of the Ottomans has grown significantly all over the world after the release of the cult saga “The Magnificent Age”. The audience intrigued not only the real life of Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska and Suleiman, but also their ancestors.

That is why today the series “Foundation. Osman ”with Burak Ozchivit in the title role is the most rating on Turkish television. The picture tells of the fate of Osman Gazi, his military campaigns and personal life. As often happens with artistic works, the events on the screen differ from what was shown in the series. In particular, we have already written about real Gazi wives here.

Today we will talk about why it was the younger Shehzade that he chose his governor. In the series, Malkhun is the mother of Orhan, but in reality she was Bala Osman's older wife-this is Malhun-Khatun, who was the daughter of Umur Bey and was of noble origin. Their marriage was concluded not by love, but for mutual benefit. For a long time it was believed that it was this woman who was the mother of Orhan, whom some mistakenly consider the first -born Osman.

However, today an increasing number of researchers are inclined to the fact that it was Rabia Bala Khatun who gave birth to this boy. Osman Gazi had another descendant of Alaeddin. And for a long time it was believed that he was the youngest child of the ruler of the camp, since his mother was his second wife. However, all this is only the result of the confusion that arose due to various interpretations of the annals of that time.

Bala, although she was the younger wife, it was she who gave birth to Shehzade Orhan, who was actually the youngest.

And the year before, Malkhun gave Osman another son. Gazi loved both children the same and also tried to treat his wives. However, the whole camp knew that Rabia married him in mutual love. Bala became the second wife of Osman Gazi between the wives of the ruler of the camp was an invisible confrontation. Malkhun understood that Osman's feelings for her were not as strong as her opponent.

But for many years the woman reassured herself that it was her son that would become the next ruler. However, shortly before the death of Gazi, he left a will. According to him, the throne was supposed to go to Orhan to the younger Shehzade. Alaeddin was to become his chief adviser. Such a decree greatly surprised everyone. However, no one dared to resist the will of Osman.

The son of Malkhun could not become the ruler of the Ottomans when the time came, the younger brother invited the elder to even divide the state and rule on a par. The son of Malkhun refused. He considered it shame to divide the empire created by his father, and voluntarily abandoned any power. However, Orhan cherished his brother’s opinion and that is why he appointed him the first great vizier in history.

Osman Gazi chose the heir not by the right of birth. He loved the ball the most, and this love applied to his descendant. That is why he made Orhan the heir. In addition, Osman was confident in the fidelity of the senior offspring, as in the fact that he would not harm his brother. Photos: Stop Kadra from the series “Foundation.
