Video spoilers history, starting with the blitzkrieg on Poland

……

The sky continues.

[The Ottoman succession law is very famous and has achieved very remarkable results. ]

[The Ottoman Empire was able to maintain its rule for more than 600 years in a place where multiple ethnic groups, forces, and religious beliefs competed with each other.]

[There were ten generations of wise rulers in succession, and with the remaining strength of ten generations, a great empire spanning three continents was established. ]

[This also seems to illustrate the superiority of their inheritance system. ]

The sky curtain continued to boast about Osman.

Let many ancient people.

Especially the Qin Emperor, Han Wudi, Tang Taizong, Song Taizu and others, all watched it attentively.

Not to mention the kings, princes and generals in ancient times.

Even ordinary families hope to learn when they divide up the inheritance.

And in the expectant eyes of countless people.

The marquee continues to play.

[We know that throughout history, both in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad, many great empires have fallen apart and collapsed because of the issue of succession.]

[Why did the Ottoman inheritance system perform so well? 】

[Today we will lift the gilded curtain of Topkapi Palace and take a closer look at this "living elimination game" inheritance method. 】

【Parricide Law System! 】

[In 1389, on the battlefield of Kosovo, the old Sultan Murad I was stabbed in the heart by a Serbian assassin]

[His son, nicknamed Lightning Bayezid I, was on the front line killing people when he heard that his father had died suddenly]

[He turned around and led his personal soldiers back to the camp. ]

[He strangled his younger brother Yakub with a bowstring.]

[“So that he doesn’t learn from me and usurp the throne” – This was the first time in Ottoman history that brothers killed each other. ]

[From now on, an iron rule is established: the new Sultan must physically eliminate all potential competitors. ]

【That is the customary law of killing brothers. 】

[On May 1453, 5, Mehmed II just stepped into Hagia Sophia and became the Great Emperor of the Ottoman Empire! ]

[His status is comparable to that of the Emperor Qin. ]

[And he was of such a prominent position, and had already killed several of his brothers with great pain. ]

[Suddenly I remembered that I still have a younger brother, little Ahmed. ]

[He immediately sent someone to strangle the baby with a silk bowstring]

[The "Parricide Law" was subsequently promulgated, which clearly stipulates: "In order to ensure national peace, the new Sultan has the right to execute his brothers"]

He said: "It is legitimate and reasonable for any of my sons to be chosen by God to be the Sultan and for him to kill his brothers in order to better rule the country and maintain order."

[This guy proved it with his actions: it only took 53 days to capture Constantinople, and only 53 minutes to kill all his brothers]

[After Selim the Grim usurped the throne in 1512, complete the following KPIs within two months. ]

[Hanged five of his brothers, including a posthumous child in a pregnant woman's womb.]

[Drowned 12 nephews—the oldest was just over 13 years old.]

[Exiled 27 cousins ​​to the Yemeni desert to feed vultures.]

[Before he died, he kindly told his son Suleiman: "Remember to prepare a gilded gallows for your brother."]

[When the old Sultan Murad III died in 1595, the harem statistics showed that he left behind 19 living princes, the youngest of whom was only 3 years old, and dozens of concubines who were pregnant.]

[The new Sultan Mehmed III performs extreme operations. ]

【16 brothers were hanged in three days.】

【Stuff the pregnant women into sacks and sink them into the Bosphorus.】

[Successively killed four Grand Viziers to silence them. ]

[The coffins in the Royal Cemetery are out of stock. 】

[In 1603, when 13-year-old Ahmed I ascended the throne.]

[I discovered that of the entire Ottoman royal family, only myself and my insane brother Mustafa were left.] [If I continue killing them, my family line may be extinct!]

[They killed their own family. ]

[So he invented the "golden cage" system: he kept his younger brother Mustafa in a gilded attic, isolated from the world and forbidden to study.]

[Those who have been locked in the "golden birdcage" for a long time are often not even normal people. 】

[Prince Ibrahim ascended the throne after being imprisoned for 34 years,]

[Thinking the waves are monsters, using the golden chamber pot as a helmet. ]

【Pure garbage.】

[He was finally strangled to death with a curtain rope by the rioting guards.]

[And the Ottoman harem is also the ultimate Shura field. ]

[Typical case: Roxelana, also known as Hürrem Sultan, bribed the royal doctor to mix sputum from tuberculosis patients into the food of her competitors.]

[She taught her daughter to seduce her husband, Suleiman the Magnificent.]

【Ultimately, my son became the first "Golden Cage Graduate". 】

[In 1826, the reformist Sultan Mahmud II formally abolished parricide.]

[The result is another strange breed: Abdul Mejid I changes into three sets of Paris haute couture every day]

【Abdul Aziz collected 3000 European silver forks.】

[Murad V chewed the carpet in public during his coronation. ]

[Modern archaeological discoveries show that 419 underage bodies were buried in the royal cemetery.]

[1378 unsent poems are engraved on the walls of the golden cage.]

[The youngest prisoner was only 28 days old.]

[A hellish joke from the tour guide: “The average survival rate of Ottoman princes is lower than that of gladiators.”]

【When the British marveled that the empire remained intact for 600 years. 】

[They may not care: behind every Sultan's ascension to the throne are dozens of silver-wrapped coffins and hundreds of mad souls in golden cages! ]

The sky screen video ends here.

Netizens’ comments also flew out.

"It turns out that the gods of the past generations are actually raising Gu."

"Li Shimin calls him an expert!"

"The orthodoxy of the Tang Dynasty lies in the Ottoman Empire, right?"

"Although the Ottoman Empire was the sick man of West Asia, it still had a strong military spirit even at the end of the dynasty."

"Although bloody, it was effective. This succession law made the Ottoman Empire have wise rulers for ten generations!"

"He also sent a loser named Jem into exile in Rome and promised the Pope to convert the Ottomans to Catholicism in exchange for the Crusades."

"The system that produced the gods was cruel. The system of the son being noble and the mother being dead caused the Northern Wei Dynasty to produce many gods. "

"After playing a lot of Crusader Kingdoms, I feel that the Ottoman succession law is quite advanced."

"If all the brothers are killed, what will happen if the Sultan dies young and has no heirs?"

《Ottoman rule allows the Crimean Khanate to be the heir.》

"Ahmed I did not kill his crazy brother Mustafa."

"After Ahmed's death, his son Osman II failed to succeed to the throne. His mentally ill brother ascended the throne as the new Sultan, known as the "Mad Emperor" Mustafa I. "

Although the "Mad Emperor" was eventually driven out of power and Osman II took the throne, he also became the first Sultan to be killed under the Janissary succession law.

"Well, it seems that the Ottoman Empire has its own national conditions here, so we have to kill, kill, kill!"

"The golden birdcage system doesn't work. These spare tires have been imprisoned in high walls for many years, and their abilities have been directly wasted!"

"Let me tell you a ghost story. The Ottoman family has not died out to this day."

"No, such a cruel inheritance system is not in line with traditional religious etiquette, right?"

"Sultan loves to drink grape juice and eat big-eared sheep, so why would he care about you?" (End of this chapter)
