DiKsa [7]

Answer: Throughout history, there have been many great leaders; a man of the 21st century could live most comfortably during the reign of the Ottoman ruler Suleiman the Magnificent.

Explanation:

The Ottoman ruler Suleiman is one of the most important rulers. There are many reasons for this. First, it significantly expanded the borders of the Ottoman Empire. He has implemented many reforms, and many of those reforms concern ordinary people. In addition to improving the quality of life, Suleiman legally imposed freedom of religion. The Ottoman Empire was thus among the first secular states in the world. He financed the construction of many monasteries and churches and was extremely tolerant of other religions. It was the Ottoman Empire that carried out the most reforms.

In that period, it was almost impossible to live anywhere in the world if you were of another religious affiliation. Because of that, they killed people. During his reign, many Jews expelled from Europe, primarily from Spain, were admitted to the Ottoman Empire. Throughout history, a man of the 21st century could most comfortably live in an empire led by Suleiman the Magnificent because, unlike everyone else, he could enjoy the most freedom without being liquidated due to different attitudes.
