Suleiman, ruler of the Ottoman Empire in the 1500s, presided over a flourishing literature, arts, and architectural society in the city of Constantinople. At the height of his power, the Ottoman Empire controlled half of the civilized world. Suleiman, considered “The Law-Giver,” freed the unjustly imprisoned and allowed some slaves to move up the social ladder based on merit and ability.
