Who were 39 Albanians who led the Ottoman Empire

This is a fact accepted by Turks and historians who study this period of history. During the 18-19th century, there were not many Albanians in the rank of prime minister, and it is evident that the empire had terrible defeats that questioned its existence. Had it not been for some Western countries that wanted to maintain it against Russia, it would surely have fallen.

These two centuries, Albanians were not without power, but had gained independence from Sultan, and ruled for themselves in some countries, such as Arabia, Syria, Egypt, and so on.

Here's 39 Albanian widowies of the Empire:

1 Jedical Ahmet Pasha

Prime Minister of the Albanian-born Empire. He was prime minister in 1475-479. During the time of his military fleet rule, he managed to conquer most of the Crimea, which blocked Europe's trade route to the east. He was able to win the war against Venice by imposing a favourable peace agreement on which Venice would pass to the Ottomans all the islands of the Aegean, except for Crete and Corfu, and pay an annual tribute to the empire. In 1478 the Ottoman armies took looting expeditions to Austrian territories. He refused to participate in the conquest of Shkodra, and for that he was dismissed from the prime minister's post. The prime ministers were credited with military successes because they were commanders of military operations and responded head-on to the sultan in case of failure.

2 David Pasha

According to Sami Frasher, he is of Albanian origin, taken captive by Sultan when he was a child. Thanks to his natural abilities and talent, at the time of Sultan Mehmed II became the religion of Rumelli and Anadol. In 1483, in the time of Sultan Bayazit, being the bellebe of Anadol, he stepped into the prime minister's post and succeeded in managing the important affairs of the Ottoman state. In 1496 he left office, and two years later he died.

3 Hyim Ahmet Pasha

Prime Minister of Albanian origin from 1496-1514. During his rule, he subdued Herzegovina and undertook several looting expeditions in Hungary, Austria, Poland. Although peace had been established with Venice, it still held some strategic points coveted by the Ottomans, so they continued fighting, mainly at sea.

The Ottoman fleet won a historic victory at the Battle of Leopantos in Corinth against the Venice fleet with which Hungary, France and Spain, blessed by the pope. Victory over Venice did not bring any major spoils of war, but it only scared Europeans not to deal with the Ottomans, and it also gave rise to the Ottoman fleet against the western fleet. At this time, the whole small Asia became involved in the Ottoman state. During his rule, a long war began with Iran's chess because he had invaded Iraq, Armenia, Kurdistan, and also searched for Asia Minor, the home of the Ottomans. This war took religious character because the Iranians were Shiite and the Zen Turks. Eventually, Iran was defeated in 1514 so much that the Ottomans entered the territories of Iran's own state and took a large part of the state ark. He succeeded in defeating Venice's medieval sea power, and then Iran itself, which had more possessions than Ottomans. Eventually, small Asia, during its rule, became the Ottomans, which would be the center of the Turkish nation. Thus, Albanians also occupied the historic territories where the Turkish nation today lies.

4 Ahmet Pasha Dukagini

He was prime minister for a short period of time from 1514 to 1515 and is derived from the great family of Dukagjins. During Sultan Selimi's rule, he has been a senior military leader with the title general, and then was the bellege of Rumeli, hence, the Balkan government, and later became prime minister. Dukagini, during the time of his rule as Egyptian governor, aimed at this country's independence from the Emperor's power. He rebelled against the sultan, but was defeated by military forces, and his severed head was sent to the sultan in Istanbul.

5 Abraham Pasha

It was originally from Butrinti, but there are scholars who say from Parga of Chemeri, however, it was Albanian. During a military expedition on Albanian soil, Sultan took him, and raised him in his palace along with his son, Sulejman, who in 1520 becomes Sultan, and his childhood companion makes him prime minister. So he grew up with the brilliant Sultan Suleiman who was one of the empire's greatest sultans, possibly the greatest. He was educated and received sufficient education to be a good military and politician. He was prime minister from 1523-1536. He married Sultan's sister, who made her a magnificent wedding. As he became prime minister, he led campaigns for the conquest of Belgrade and Rhodes.

Thus, in 1526 he headed an army of 100,000 and set out against Hungary. In August of that same year, Mohawk's battle took place, where the Hungarians were defeated and, after that, the Ottoman Army took the Buddha city's capital. This battle, attended by Sultan Suleiman, was a historic battle because the Ottomans thereafter came to the borders of central Europe and threatened him seriously. Mohawk's battle was one of the biggest battles the Ottomans have fought, but with Albanian commanders. Given that Hungary fought a 100-year war, since 1444 when it sought Skenderbeu's help, the importance of this victory is historic.

In 1529 the Ottoman army of 250,000 soldiers, commanded by Abraham, in which the sultan himself attended, surrounded Vienna. Vienna was severely bombed but did not give up. In the failure of the Ottoman army, taking Vienna was negatively affected by the cold the Ottoman army had not been used to, as it came from a warm area. In 1532 he was commander of another war with Austria, but more so for Hungarian territories. In this war he defeated Austria and finally managed to turn Hungary into a province of the Ottoman Empire. In 1534 he was able to invade Azerbaijan and further expanded the territories of the Ottoman State to the east. Ibrahim has signed and capitals with France, which many scholars call in Turkey's disparity in terms of the economy, because French merchants were privileged to the empire, but the capitulations were on the other hand an agreement with France against the common enemy Austria, who wanted to attack him simultaneously. Thus, seen in foreign policy was not a bad deal at all because it allied a Western state. He managed to crush all domestic uprisings with weapons.

In 1536 he was killed in the Sultan's palace where he grew up, but it is unknown who killed him and why, although many historians claim that he was killed for jealousy because he had succeeded. I can't believe that there was a Sultan's hand in his murder, as in the Ottomans; for they were grown together as children, and a great Sultan like Solomon couldn't have such a little soul. In history, it remains one of the largest veins of one of the greatest sultans of the Ottoman Empire. He is credited with having managed to invade Hungary, which had been challenging the Ottomans for 100 years, attacked Austria, even though it took that action to terrorise Europe, invaded Azerbaijan, signed alliance agreements with France and so forth.

In 1538 the Ottoman fleet defeated the fleet of three powers of the West, the fleet of Charles of V Habsburg, Venice, and the pope. After this defeat, Venice was forced to unleash several cities in Dalmatia and pay a heavy annual tribute in favor of the Ottomans. He took part in the crackdown on the rebellion in his hometown, Himara, as he was prime minister and perhaps could not do otherwise than beheaded by the sultan.

While he was prime minister, in the 1553-1555s, he was charged with negotiating Iran's chess and signed a peace agreement with him, under which Iraq remained under Ottoman rule, Gruzia and Armenia split in two, while Azerbaijan passed under Iran's chess control. The peace agreement was favourable that the empire emerged in the Persian Gulf, that is, another Albanian after bringing the empire out on the Red Sea, which gave the Persian Gulf to the Ottoman state. Several invasions were also carried out with the Ottoman fleet in North Africa. In 1555 he was beheaded, even though he was the sultan's son - in - law, the reasons why they are not known.
