The Sultan Who Defied the Law of Murder

He was only 13 when he inherited a throne built on blood. Sultan Ahmed I faced a horrifying choice: uphold the Ottoman Law of Fratricide by executing his own little brother, or defy a centuries-old tradition and risk plunging the empire into chaos. This is the story of the decision that changed everything. Delve into the hidden history of the Ottoman Empire and the reign of Sultan Ahmed I. We explore the brutal legacy of his father, Mehmed III, who began his rule by ordering the strangulation of his 19 brothers. Witness the paranoia that filled the corridors of the Topkapi Palace, where princes like Ahmed lived under the constant threat of the silk bowstring. Learn how a prince who was never supposed to rule made a choice of mercy that had unforeseen and dramatic consequences for the future of the dynasty, leading to the establishment of the 'Kafes' (the Cage) system. Was Ahmed I's decision an act of compassion or a fatal mistake?
