In what ways was the Ottoman Empire influenced both by previous Islam empires and the Byzantine Empire?

History

Marina CMI [18]3 years ago

The Ottoman Empire began as one of the small Turkish states that emerged in Asia Minor during the decline of the Seljuk Empire. The Ottoman Turks gradually controlled the other Turkish states, survived the Mongol invasions and under the reign of Mehmed II (1451-1481) ended what was left of the Byzantine Empire.

The origin of the Ottoman Turks can be found in the steppes of Central Asia, in Turkestan, in an ethnic group dedicated to transhumant livestock, especially horses, and to commerce, with semi-nomadic practices. The Turks soon relate to the Muslim cultures of their environment, engage with them in business relations and adopt Islam in their Sunni branch. This contact could be due to the silk route, as the Muslim merchants would probably pass through the territories where the Ottomans lived. The first entries of Turkish tribes in the region that would later be the Ottoman Empire occur in the military, when the armies of the Abbasid Caliphate needed soldiers for internal struggles and against the Christians and Byzantines during the ninth century. Therefore, they resorted to border territories recruiting the population. Within the Abbasid Caliphate it can already be seen how the Turks are climbing positions in the army and the administration. The slow penetration of Turkish tribes in this area was carried out in two ways: through the progressive occupation of the territory by the tribal groups and through the struggle against the Byzantine Empire, which had dominated this region for a long time and which they annulled militarily.

Vesna [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Former President Theodore Roosevelt's decision to participate influenced the election and the Progressive Party in that another serious contender participated in the disputed election of 1912. US citizens had a pull of four candidates that polarized the election in which the winner was Democratic candidate Woodrow Wilson.

Elected candidate Woodrow Wilson ended up with 435 electoral votes and 6,293,454 popular votes. Former US President Theodore Roosevelt finished in second place with 88 electoral votes and 4,119,207 popular votes.

One reason for this result was the fact that the Republicans faced a serious internal division in the party when Republicans decided that William Taft was going to be its candidate. That is why Roosevelt decided to compete for the Progressive party, taking with him many members and votes that formerly belonged to the Republican party.

Why did the ancient city-state of Athens and Sparta develop different political systems?
sergij07 [2.7K]

The mountainous topography of the Greek peninsula resulted in the isolation of these two city-states.

Athens developed a system that valued philosophy and active political involvement by its citizens in an early form of democracy. (Note that it wasn't full democracy as we'd think of it today, as those who had a political voice were free men, not women or slaves.)

Sparta developed a militaristic system that valued physical training and military service, as well as a strict loyalty to the state.
