The Ottoman Empire, historically and colloquially known as the Turkish Empire, is an empire that controlls most territories in the Anatolia Region.

The empire was founded in the middle of August 2023 in northwestern Anatolia in the town of Söğüt (modern-day Bilecik Province) by the Turkoman tribal leader Nevalik I.

Starting from a little beylik in Söğüt, the Ottomans crossed through the whole anatolia region and, with the conquest of big cities like Bursa, the Ottoman beylik was transformed into an empire.

Rise

First Days

The Empire was founded on 14th August by the Sultan Nevalik Han I. Although the group isn't exactly the same, it obviousely is based off the real Ottoman Empire and its structure was made almost the same as it really was. The organisation of the systems, discord servers and bots took place in less than a week. After just two days, the empire opened its doors to new members. Following first advertisements, the empire experienced a steep climbed in their member count. The following days, new documents regarding military organisation were published and put in effect. A new game for the group was freshly being developed and territorial advances were made. The empire seemed invincible.

Ottoman Interregnum

After successfull first days, the empire fell into an interregnum and the expansion stopped. Also, the main developer wasn't able to work anymore, stopping the progress made on the map. With major problems in command, the Sultan had to see his Pashas fight each other for higher ranks. The empire's territorial expansion was halted until the problems were solved. Sultan Nevalik knew that he has to change something quick, in order to keep his Empire alive. Following the fights, 3 Pashas and 5 Officers were removed from their position and exiled from the empire. Now the empire had come back.

Devlet Reforms

The so called "Devlet Reforms" (Devlet=State) consisted of several changes that were made to the empire,

in order to revive it. The changes made were mainly deadlines for Officers and Enlisteds, but also changes in the general sysetm of the empire.The changes were discussed with the new Divan with new Pashas that have been promoted to Vezir (thus being members of Divan). All changes were chosen after long discussion and they aim to bring the Empire on the top again, The changes are following:

1 | General Reforms (Counts for every member)

• You are required to have a verified Roblox account linked to the ottoman discord server
• Every member of the Ottoman Empire has to be a member of its roblox group
• You will not be granted access to all channels, if you are not verified

2 | Subay (Officer) Reforms

• To be/stay commissioned, a Subay has to fulfill both of the requirements mentioned on top
• Those who fail to fulfill these requirements, won't be able to be promoted to a Subay Rank.
• Subaylar not meeting these criteria will be demoted to either Onbaşı if verified or Nefer if unverified.

Territorial Expansion

After the reforms, the Ottoman Empire made great advances in its territorial expansion and gained more and more power.

Anatolian Expansion

Thanks to the changes, the Ottoman Empire gained more territories in the anatolian region of turkey. Improved Economy and Industry also lead to that long term success. Especially with the conquest of the old Seljuk Capital Konya, the empire had proven its dominance in anatolia.

Arabian Expansion

Shortly after the successful conquests in anatolia, the Ottomans have also expanded into West Arabian territories, conquering the cities of Hatay and Aleppo. In the future, they aim to take suez, so they will further expand on the arab peninsula.

Government

Leadership:

The leadership structure is centralized, with the Sultan assuming the pivotal role in appointments. Leaders of eyalets and sancaks are handpicked by the Sultan, and the authority to dismiss or reassign officials is vested in the central administration. This centralized approach ensures a cohesive governance strategy, allowing for adaptive responses to evolving circumstances.

Responsibilities of the Sultan:

The Sultan's oversight is integral to the success of this administrative model. Apart from the appointment of key officials, the Sultan actively monitors and ensures effective governance across the vast empire. This centralized leadership model strikes a delicate balance between centralized control and localized administration, optimizing efficiency.

Conclusion:

The Ottoman Empire's provincial administration, distinguished by the roles of eyalets and sancaks, embodies a sophisticated and responsive governance structure. This centralized yet adaptive approach has been instrumental in navigating the complexities of an extensive and diverse empire, contributing significantly to its enduring influence and longevity.

Provincial Administration

Eyalets and Sancaks on the Map

At the core of the Ottoman Empire's governance is a meticulously structured system centered around eyalets and sancaks.

This framework proves instrumental in facilitating the administration of the empire's diverse and expansive territories.

Eyalets

Eyalets, the primary administrative divisions, are overseen by a "Vali"—provincial governors personally appointed by the Sultan.

The Major Provinces are equivilant to big provinces on the Map (eg. Bursa, Istanbul, Suez, ...).

Command

Each Vali will be appointed only by the Sultan himself, as they have a major importance in the empire's administration.

They hold the rank of minimum Ferik-i Evvel. Also, the may not hold the rank of a Vezir, as they already hold another civilian position, being Vali.

These leaders wield comprehensive authority, navigating the realms of politics, military affairs, and fiscal management within their designated eyalets.

Sancaks

Operating within the broader context of eyalets are sancaks, smaller administrative units which are lead by a so called "Sancak Bey".

These smaller provinces are equivilant to one tile on the RoNations Map (eg. Bursa 01, Bursa 02, Bursa 03, etc...).

Command

Sancak Beys, officials appointed within these districts by their direct superior or the Sultan himself, report directly to the Vali.

Their responsibilities span local administration, tax collection, and the maintenance of order within their specific districts.

Sancak Beys hold at least the rank of Kaymakam and may not get appointed as Pashas, as they already hold another civilian position, being Sancak Beys.
