The "Notes" column contains information on each sultan's parentage and fate. Early Ottomans practiced what historian Quataert has described as "<a href="/wiki/Survival_of_the_fittest" title="Survival of the fittest">survival of the fittest</a>, not eldest, son": when a sultan died, his sons had to fight each other for the throne until a victor emerged. Because of the infighting and numerous <a href="/wiki/Fratricide" title="Fratricide">fratricides</a> that occurred, there was often a time gap between a sultan's death date and the accession date of his successor.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In 1617, the <a href="/wiki/Line_of_succession_to_the_Ottoman_throne" class="mw-redirect" title="Line of succession to the Ottoman throne">law of succession</a> changed from survival of the fittest to a system based on <a href="/wiki/Agnatic_seniority" title="Agnatic seniority">agnatic seniority</a> (<span title="Ottoman Turkish (1500-1928)-language text"><span lang="ota-Arab" dir="rtl">اکبریت</span></span> <i>ekberiyet</i>), whereby the throne went to the oldest male of the family.

The title of <a href="/wiki/Sultan" title="Sultan">sultan</a> was used continuously by all rulers almost from the beginning. However, because it was widespread in the Muslim world, the Ottomans quickly adopted variations of it to dissociate themselves from other Muslim rulers of lesser status. <a href="/wiki/Murad_I" title="Murad I">Murad I</a>, the third Ottoman monarch, styled himself <i>sultân-ı âzam</i> (<span title="Ottoman Turkish (1500-1928)-language text"><span lang="ota" dir="rtl">سلطان اعظم</span></span>, the most exalted sultan) and <i>hüdavendigar</i> (<span title="Ottoman Turkish (1500-1928)-language text"><span lang="ota" dir="rtl">خداوندگار</span></span>, emperor), titles used by the Anatolian <a href="/wiki/Seljuq_dynasty" class="mw-redirect" title="Seljuq dynasty">Seljuqs</a> and the Mongol <a href="/wiki/Ilkhanate" title="Ilkhanate">Ilkhanids</a> respectively.

The combining of the Islamic and Central Asian heritages of the Ottomans led to the adoption of the title that became the standard designation of the Ottoman ruler: <i>Sultan [Name] Khan</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-31" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-31"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>31<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Ironically, although the title of sultan is most often associated in the <a href="/wiki/Western_world" title="Western world">Western world</a> with the Ottomans, people within Turkey generally use the title of <i><a href="/wiki/Padishah" title="Padishah">padishah</a></i> far more frequently when referring to rulers of the Ottoman Dynasty.<sup id="cite_ref-32" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-32"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>32<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></dd> <dd><b>b</b><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1041539562"><span class="citation wikicite" id="endnote_Caliphate1"><a href="#ref_Caliphate1"><b><sup>1</sup></b></a></span> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1041539562"><span class="citation wikicite" id="endnote_Caliphate2"><a href="#ref_Caliphate2"><b><sup>2</sup></b></a></span> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1041539562"><span class="citation wikicite" id="endnote_Caliphate3"><a href="#ref_Caliphate3"><b><sup>3</sup></b></a></span>&#160;: The <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_Caliphate" title="Ottoman Caliphate">Ottoman Caliphate</a> symbolized their spiritual power, whereas the sultanate represented their temporal power.

However, the general consensus among modern scholars is that Ottoman rulers had used the title of caliph before the conquest of Egypt, as early as during the reign of <a href="/wiki/Murad_I" title="Murad I">Murad I</a> (1362–1389), who brought most of the Balkans under Ottoman rule and established the title of sultan in 1383. It is currently agreed that the caliphate "disappeared" for two-and-a-half centuries, before being revived with the <a href="/wiki/Treaty_of_K%C3%BC%C3%A7%C3%BCk_Kaynarca" title="Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca">Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca</a>, signed between the Ottoman Empire and <a href="/wiki/Catherine_II_of_Russia" class="mw-redirect" title="Catherine II of Russia">Catherine II of Russia</a> in 1774. The treaty was highly symbolic, since it marked the first international recognition of the Ottomans' claim to the caliphate. Although the treaty made official the Ottoman Empire's loss of the <a href="/wiki/Crimean_Khanate" title="Crimean Khanate">Crimean Khanate</a>, it acknowledged the Ottoman caliph's continuing religious authority over <a href="/wiki/Islam_in_Russia" title="Islam in Russia">Muslims in Russia</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-33" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-33"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>33<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> From the 18th century onwards, Ottoman sultans increasingly emphasized their status as caliphs in order to stir <a href="/wiki/Pan-Islamism" title="Pan-Islamism">Pan-Islamist</a> sentiments among the empire's Muslims in the face of encroaching European imperialism.
