In <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_Turkish" title="Ottoman Turkish">Ottoman Turkish</a>, the empire was referred to as Devlet-i ʿAlīye-yi ʿOsmānīye (دولت عليه عثمانیه), <abbr style="font-size:85%" title="literal translation">lit.</abbr> 'Sublime Ottoman State', or simply Devlet-i ʿOsmānīye (دولت عثمانيه‎), <abbr style="font-size:85%" title="literal translation">lit.</abbr> 'Ottoman State'. The Turkish word for "Ottoman" (Osmanlı) originally referred to the tribal followers of Osman in the fourteenth century. The word subsequently came to be used to refer to the empire's military-administrative elite. In contrast, the term "Turk" (Türk) was used to refer to the Anatolian peasant and tribal population and was seen as a disparaging term when applied to urban, educated individuals.<a href="#cite_note-44">[31]</a>: 26 <a href="#cite_note-45">[32]</a> In the <a href="/wiki/Early_modern_period" title="Early modern period">early modern period</a>, an educated, urban-dwelling Turkish speaker who was not a member of the military-administrative class typically referred to themselves neither as an Osmanlı nor as a Türk, but rather as a Rūmī (رومى), or "Roman", meaning an inhabitant of the territory of the former <a href="/wiki/Byzantine_Empire" title="Byzantine Empire">Byzantine Empire</a> in the Balkans and Anatolia. The term Rūmī was also used to refer to Turkish speakers by the other Muslim peoples of the empire and beyond.<a href="#cite_note-46">[33]</a>: 11  In Western Europe, the names Ottoman Empire, Turkish Empire and Turkey were often used interchangeably, with Turkey being increasingly favoured both in formal and informal situations.

At present, most scholarly historians avoid the terms "Turkey", "Turks", and "Turkish" when referring to the Ottomans, due to the empire's multinational character.<a

historian <a href="/wiki/Dimitri_Kitsikis" title="Dimitri Kitsikis">Dimitri Kitsikis</a>, have argued that after the fall of Constantinople, the Ottoman state took over the machinery of the Byzantine (Roman) state and that the Ottoman Empire was in essence a continuation of the Byzantine Empire under a <a href="/wiki/Turkish_people" title="Turkish people">Turkish</a> <a href="/wiki/Muslims" title="Muslims">Muslim</a> guise.<a href="#cite_note-185">[170]</a> The American historian <a href="/wiki/Speros_Vryonis" title="Speros Vryonis">Speros Vryonis</a> writes that the Ottoman state

href="/wiki/Heath_Lowry" class="mw-redirect" title="Heath Lowry">Heath Lowry</a> posit that the early Ottoman state was a predatory confederacy open to both Byzantine Christians and Turkish Muslims whose primary goal was attaining booty and slaves, rather than spreading Islam, and that Islam only later became the empire's primary characteristic.<a href="#cite_note-187">[172]</a><a href="#cite_note-188">[173]</a><a href="#cite_note-189">[174]</a> Other historians have followed the lead of the Austrian historian <a href="/wiki/Paul_Wittek" title="Paul Wittek">Paul Wittek</a>, who emphasizes the early Ottoman state's Islamic character, seeing it as a "<a href="/wiki/Jihad" title="Jihad">jihad</a> state" dedicated to expanding the <a href="/wiki/Muslim_world" title="Muslim

Köprülü">Mehmet Fuat Köprülü</a> championed the <a href="/wiki/Ghaza_thesis" title="Ghaza thesis">Ghaza thesis</a>, according to which the early Ottoman state was a continuation of the way of life of the nomadic <a href="/wiki/Turkic_peoples" title="Turkic peoples">Turkic tribes</a> who had come from East Asia to Anatolia via Central Asia and the Middle East on a much larger scale. They argued that the most important cultural influences on the Ottoman state came from <a href="/wiki/Iran" title="Iran">Persia</a>.<a href="#cite_note-190">[175]</a> The British historian <a href="/wiki/Norman_Stone" title="Norman Stone">Norman Stone</a> suggests many continuities between the Byzantine and Ottoman empires, such as that the zeugarion tax of Byzantium became the Ottoman <a href="/wiki/Resm-i_%C3%A7ift" title="Resm-i çift">Resm-i çift</a> tax, that the <a href="/wiki/Pronoia" title="Pronoia">pronoia</a> land-holding system that linked the amount of land one owned with one's ability to raise cavalry became the Ottoman <a href="/wiki/Timar" title="Timar">timar</a> system, and that the Ottoman land measurement the <a href="/wiki/D%C3%B6n%C3%BCm" class="mw-redirect" title="Dönüm">dönüm</a> was the same as the Byzantine <a href="/wiki/Stremma" title="Stremma">stremma</a>. Stone also argues that although Sunni Islam was the state religion, the Ottoman state supported and controlled the <a href="/wiki/Eastern_Orthodox_Church" title="Eastern Orthodox Church">Eastern Orthodox Church</a>, which in return for accepting that control became the Ottoman Empire's largest land-holder. Despite the similarities, Stone argues that a crucial difference is that the land grants under the timar system were not hereditary at first. Even after they became inheritable, land ownership in the Ottoman Empire remained highly insecure, and the sultan revoked land grants whenever he wished. Stone argued this insecurity in land tenure strongly discouraged <a href="/wiki/Timariot" class="mw-redirect" title="Timariot">Timariots</a> from seeking long-term development of their land, and instead led them to adopt a strategy of short-term exploitation, which had deleterious effects on the Ottoman economy.<a href="#cite_note-191">[176]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Government">Government</h2></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951" /><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/State_organisation_of_the_Ottoman_Empire" class="mw-redirect" title="State organisation of the Ottoman Empire">State organisation of the Ottoman Empire</a></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1273380762/mw-parser-output/.tmulti" /><div class="thumb tmulti tright"><div class="thumbinner multiimageinner" style="width:224px;max-width:224px"><div class="trow"><div class="tsingle" style="width:222px;max-width:222px"><div class="thumbimage"><a href="/wiki/File:Topkap%C4%B1_-_01.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/06/Topkap%C4%B1_-_01.jpg/250px-Topkap%C4%B1_-_01.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="110" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/06/Topkap%C4%B1_-_01.jpg/330px-Topkap%C4%B1_-_01.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/06/Topkap%C4%B1_-_01.jpg/500px-Topkap%C4%B1_-_01.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3635" data-file-height="1817" /></a></div></div></div><div class="trow"><div class="tsingle" style="width:222px;max-width:222px"><div class="thumbimage"><a href="/wiki/File:Dolmabah%C3%A7e_Palace,_Istanbul_cropped.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/Dolmabah%C3%A7e_Palace%2C_Istanbul_cropped.jpg/250px-Dolmabah%C3%A7e_Palace%2C_Istanbul_cropped.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="115" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/Dolmabah%C3%A7e_Palace%2C_Istanbul_cropped.jpg/330px-Dolmabah%C3%A7e_Palace%2C_Istanbul_cropped.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/Dolmabah%C3%A7e_Palace%2C_Istanbul_cropped.jpg/500px-Dolmabah%C3%A7e_Palace%2C_Istanbul_cropped.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4740" data-file-height="2484" /></a></div><div class="thumbcaption"><a href="/wiki/Topkap%C4%B1_Palace" title="Topkapı Palace">Topkapı Palace</a> and <a href="/wiki/Dolmabah%C3%A7e_Palace" title="Dolmabahçe Palace">Dolmabahçe Palace</a> were the primary residences of the <a href="/wiki/List_of_sultans_of_the_Ottoman_Empire" title="List of sultans of the Ottoman Empire">Ottoman sultans</a> in <a href="/wiki/Istanbul" title="Istanbul">Istanbul</a> between 1465 and 1856<a href="#cite_note-nytimes-192">[177]</a> and 1856 to 1922,<a href="#cite_note-dolmabahcepalace-193">[178]</a> respectively.</div></div></div></div></div> Before the reforms of the 19th and 20th centuries, the <a href="/wiki/State_organisation_of_the_Ottoman_Empire" class="mw-redirect" title="State organisation of the Ottoman Empire">state organisation of the Ottoman Empire</a> was a system with two main dimensions, the military administration, and the civil administration.

By developing commercial centers and routes, encouraging people to extend the area of cultivated land in the country and international trade through its dominions, the state performed basic economic functions in the Empire. But in all this, the financial and political interests of the state were dominant.

The Janissaries had been recruited from Christians and other minorities; their abolition enabled the emergence of a Turkish elite to control the Ottoman Empire. A large number of ethnic and religious minorities were tolerated in their own separate segregated domains called millets.<a href="#cite_note-274">[259]</a> They were primarily <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_Greeks" title="Ottoman Greeks">Greek</a>, <a href="/wiki/Armenians_in_the_Ottoman_Empire" title="Armenians in the Ottoman Empire">Armenian</a>, or <a href="/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_the_Ottoman_Empire" title="History of the Jews in the Ottoman Empire">Jewish</a>. In each locality, they governed themselves, spoke their own language, ran their own schools, cultural and religious institutions, and paid somewhat higher taxes. They had no power outside the millet. The Imperial government protected them and prevented major violent clashes between ethnic groups. Ethnic nationalism, based on distinctive religion and language, provided a centripetal force that eventually destroyed the Ottoman Empire.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEQuataert1983-275">[260]</a> In addition, Muslim ethnic groups, which were not part of the millet system, especially the Arabs and the Kurds, were outside the Turkish culture and developed their own separate nationalism. The British sponsored Arab nationalism in the First World War, promising an independent Arab state in return for Arab support. Most Arabs supported the Sultan, but those near Mecca believed in and supported the British promise.<a href="#cite_note-276">[261]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Istanbul_asv2021-11_img03_Hemdat_Israel_Synagogue.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/Istanbul_asv2021-11_img03_Hemdat_Israel_Synagogue.jpg/220px-Istanbul_asv2021-11_img03_Hemdat_Israel_Synagogue.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/Istanbul_asv2021-11_img03_Hemdat_Israel_Synagogue.jpg/330px-Istanbul_asv2021-11_img03_Hemdat_Israel_Synagogue.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/24/Istanbul_asv2021-11_img03_Hemdat_Israel_Synagogue.jpg/440px-Istanbul_asv2021-11_img03_Hemdat_Israel_Synagogue.jpg 2x" data-file-width="7719" data-file-height="5146" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Hemdat_Israel_Synagogue" title="Hemdat Israel Synagogue">Hemdat Israel Synagogue</a> of <a href="/wiki/Istanbul" title="Istanbul">Istanbul</a></figcaption></figure> At the local level, power was held beyond the control of the Sultan by the <a href="/wiki/Ayan_(class)" title="Ayan (class)">ayans</a> or local notables.

Greece became independent, and Serbia and other Balkan areas became highly restive as the force of nationalism pushed against imperialism. The French took over Algeria and Tunisia. The Europeans all thought that the empire was a sick man in rapid decline. Only the Germans seemed helpful, and their support led to the Ottoman Empire joining the central powers in 1915, with the result that they came out as one of the heaviest losers of the First World War in 1918.<a href="#cite_note-278">[263]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Culture">Culture</h2></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"

cultures in the regions they conquered and added new dimensions to them. Numerous traditions and cultural traits of previous empires (in fields such as architecture, cuisine, music, leisure, and government) were adopted by the Ottoman Turks, who developed them into new forms, resulting in a new and distinctively Ottoman cultural identity. Although the predominant literary language of the Ottoman Empire was Turkish, Persian was the preferred vehicle for the projection of an imperial image.<a href="#cite_note-279">[264]</a> <a href="/wiki/Slavery_in_the_Ottoman_Empire" title="Slavery in the Ottoman Empire">Slavery</a> was part of Ottoman society,<a href="#cite_note-280">[265]</a> with most slaves employed as domestic servants. Agricultural slavery, like that in the Americas, was relatively rare. Unlike systems of <a href="/wiki/Slavery" title="Slavery">chattel slavery</a>, slaves under Islamic law were not regarded as movable property, and the children of female slaves were born legally free. Female slaves were still sold in the Empire as late as 1908.<a href="#cite_note-281">[266]</a> During the 19th century the Empire came under pressure from Western European countries to outlaw the practice. Policies developed by various sultans throughout the 19th century attempted to curtail the <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_slave_trade" class="mw-redirect" title="Ottoman slave trade">Ottoman slave trade</a> but slavery had centuries of religious backing and sanction and so was never abolished in the Empire.<a href="#cite_note-Syed-2011-264">[249]</a> Ottomans adopted Persian bureaucratic traditions and culture.

Poetry was by far the dominant stream. The earliest work of Ottoman historiography for example, the <a href="/wiki/Iskendername" title="Iskendername">İskendernâme</a>, was composed by the poet <a href="/wiki/Taceddin_Ahmedi" title="Taceddin Ahmedi">Taceddin Ahmedi</a>.<a href="#cite_note-:1-287">[272]</a> Until the 19th century, Ottoman prose did not contain any examples of fiction: there were no counterparts to, for instance, the European <a href="/wiki/Chivalric_romance" title="Chivalric romance">romance</a>, short story, or novel. Analog genres did exist, though, in both <a href="/wiki/Turkish_folk_literature" title="Turkish folk literature">Turkish folk literature</a> and in <a href="/wiki/Diwan_(poetry)" title="Diwan (poetry)">Divan poetry</a>. Ottoman Divan poetry was a highly ritualized and symbolic art form. From the <a href="/wiki/Persian_literature" title="Persian literature">Persian poetry</a> that largely inspired it, it inherited a wealth of symbols whose meanings and interrelationships—both of similitude (مراعات نظير mura'ât-i nazîr / تناسب tenâsüb) and opposition (تضاد tezâd) were more or less prescribed. Divan poetry was composed through the constant juxtaposition of many such images within a strict metrical framework, allowing numerous potential meanings to emerge. The vast majority of Divan poetry was <a href="/wiki/Lyric_poetry" title="Lyric poetry">lyric</a> in nature: either <a href="/wiki/Gazel" title="Gazel">gazels</a> (which make up the greatest part of the repertoire of the tradition), or kasîdes. But there were other common genres, especially the mesnevî, a kind of <a href="/wiki/Courtly_romance" class="mw-redirect" title="Courtly romance">verse romance</a> and thus a variety of <a href="/wiki/Narrative_poetry" title="Narrative poetry">narrative poetry</a>; the two most notable examples of this form are the <a href="/wiki/Leyli_and_Majnun_(Fuzuli)" title="Leyli and Majnun (Fuzuli)">Leyli and Majnun</a> of <a href="/wiki/Fuzuli_(poet)" title="Fuzuli (poet)">Fuzuli</a> and the <a href="/wiki/H%C3%BCsn_%C3%BC_A%C5%9Fk" title="Hüsn ü Aşk">Hüsn ü Aşk</a> of <a href="/wiki/%C5%9Eeyh_G%C3%A2lib" title="Şeyh Gâlib">Şeyh Gâlib</a>.

Nevertheless, there was a tradition of prose in the literature of the time, though it was exclusively nonfictional. One apparent exception was <a href="/wiki/Giritli_Ali_Aziz_Efendi" title="Giritli Ali Aziz Efendi">Muhayyelât</a> (Fancies) by <a href="/wiki/Giritli_Ali_Aziz_Efendi" title="Giritli Ali Aziz Efendi">Giritli Ali Aziz Efendi</a>, a collection of stories of the fantastic written in 1796, though not published until 1867. The first novel published in the Ottoman Empire was <a href="/wiki/Vartan_Pasha" title="Vartan Pasha">Vartan Pasha</a>'s 1851 The Story of Akabi (Turkish: Akabi Hikyayesi). It was written in Turkish but with <a href="/wiki/Armenian_language" title="Armenian language">Armenian</a> script.<a href="#cite_note-289">[274]</a><a href="#cite_note-290">[275]</a><a href="#cite_note-291">[276]</a><a href="#cite_note-292">[277]</a> Due to historically close ties with France, <a href="/wiki/French_literature" title="French literature">French literature</a> constituted the major Western influence on Ottoman literature in the latter half of the 19th century. As a result, many of the same movements prevalent in France during this period had Ottoman equivalents; in the developing Ottoman prose tradition, for instance, the influence of <a href="/wiki/Romanticism" title="Romanticism">Romanticism</a> can be seen during the Tanzimat period, and that of the <a href="/wiki/Realism_(arts)" title="Realism (arts)">Realist</a> and <a href="/wiki/Naturalism_(literature)" title="Naturalism (literature)">Naturalist</a> movements in subsequent periods; in the poetic tradition, on the other hand, the influence of the <a href="/wiki/Symbolism_(arts)" class="mw-redirect" title="Symbolism (arts)">Symbolist</a> and <a href="/wiki/Parnassianism" title="Parnassianism">Parnassian</a> movements was paramount.

The most dominant regions with their distinguished musical styles are Balkan-Thracian Türküs, North-Eastern (<a href="/wiki/Laz_people" title="Laz people">Laz</a>) Türküs, Aegean Türküs, Central Anatolian Türküs, Eastern Anatolian Türküs, and Caucasian Türküs.

These immigrants were overwhelmingly Muslim, except for a number of Jews who left their homes in the Balkans and Russia in order to live in the Ottoman lands. By the end of the century the immigrants and their descendants constituted some 30 to 40 percent of the total population of Anatolia, and in some western areas their percentage was even higher." ...
