Rebirth of the Empire:
An Ottoman Monarchial AAR
Sultan Mahmud II
The Height of our glorious Empire
Walking into the halls of the great library of Istanbul you notice an old man deep in thought, starring out of the window over the city. The window brings forth rays of light piercing through the dark room, showing a fog of flowing dust. It would seem this room has been undisturbed for many an age, but how so? Right before your very eyes there sits a man. From below you hear chants of brotherhood and freedom, cries for democracy, and a rebirth of the Turkish people. "Young Turks, Young Turks, Young Turks!" This chant could be heard but you lack the ability to comprehend it. The old man senses your presence and turns towards you. "Welcome my son, would you like to hear a story of great Kings, and glorious wars? Tales of chivalry, and the clash of swords? A time when our people ruled the land, the sea an all in between. Come sit by me and we shall revel in time."
