There are a few unique units like Janissaries around the world. The name is very popular. They were the inspiration for Mozart to compose "Turkish March". What about how well do you know about the life of Janissaries? Would you like to see one? This is a story from one of them. Fatjon or Mehmed, whatever you call.
They're talking about child slavery here, but what does that have to do with child slavery? If they were to send you to the United States right now to study in top schools, wouldn't you accept it? This is something like him.
yeah and if a family has only boy they wouldt took the boy only the youngest child was taken(its probably better for the family because there was a food shortage at the time and no birth control)
It was neither slavery nor voluntary. It was basically a conscription system if the family was poor not to able to pay their taxes. In return they were exempted from tax until the child gets retired(KIA would be considered "martyred" and family will be exempt for life), paid enough to buy a couple of cattle or few sheeps, or to be able to just afford to pay their bondage to their landlord and buy their freedom if the family was in some form of serfdom or contract, however it was by no means voluntary in most cases, it was forced and basically was like "we conscript your kid, we pay you in return and you have no say on that". Neither romanticising nor demonising historical facts will get us nowhere. Stop doing either...
Everyone talk about fat john but no one talks about his score(20 children)
III.Murad has 102-130 children
Ottoman society was polygamous and rich people like him had their own harems, so he was able to impregnate many women at once.
He's a rockstar
Elon Musk has 9 children.
@@kmmmsyr9883 Only an invisible minority elite(not surpassing the 1 percent) were polygamous. It was a rarity for a commoner to be rich enough to be polygamous.
It’s pronounced Fat-yon, not fat john lol
I’m so tired why is this comment so funny
Who gives a fuck about that?!
@@mattgogman575 i do
I also care how words are properly pronounced.
I’m also upset the poster hasn’t rectified this major mistake. You would think someone who studies history would know that eastern-europeans, etc., pronounce the “J” as a “Y”. Ever heard of Jan Hus? It’s fucking pronounced YAN. This guy gets a downvote from me.
Interesting fact : All families were eager to send their sons to the Yeniceri Ocak especially poor families because becoming a Yeniceri (Janissary) meant guaranteed succesful career. The Yeniceri's were mainly recruited from Balkans and Anatolian families. Some families, although poor, even tried to bribe recruiters to take their son as Yeniceri.
Yes. Turkish families even bribed the tax collectors to take their children, despite Muslim not being allowed, which led to the corruption of the Janissary Guild. I think the only disadvantage of the system for families was the forced conversion to Islam.
@@kmmmsyr9883 My English is bad, so let me explain briefly, there is a weapon on the other side, you have a sword, what kind of way do you follow, you increase the number of soldiers and discipline collapses.
@@kmmmsyr9883 There is no compulsion in Islam, I cannot say that it did not happen in history, but this is wrong in the religion of Islam.
@@kmmmsyr9883 Eğer mümin iseniz İslam'ı araştırmanızı tavsiye ederim, eminim Müslüman olacaksınız, kalbiniz ferahlayacaktır.

It's nice to know that an Albanian was the Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire during Sultan Suleiman's Reign.
Most of grand vizir is doesnt turkish but bosnian albanian italian greek one french serbian etc
barbaros hayrettin pasha the great ottoman navy was also a albanian. he conquered tunesia and gave the keys to the city to sultan suleyman

Ottomans only started wearing fez in 19th century, until then they wore turbans or simple caps.
In Algeria, 17th century, medieval Turkish historian Evliya Celebi describes Algerian men wearing the fez ( tarbouche ) our version are a little bit different it’s a more smaller we called chechia

Janissaries and Concubines from European countries contributed greatly to the Ottoman Empire and whether they managed to attain high ranks or not is immaterial. Whether they were loyal or betrayed the empire later on, their service to the empire is monumental to say the least.
The Janissaries flourished because the recruits were offered opportunities that they could never have hoped to access in their Native countries. Europe had a caste system with the aristocracy at the top especially Eastern Europe where serfdom was implemented. If you were born a serf you had very few economic opportunities and you were basically indentured to your feudal lord. The ottoman’s rejected this notion of aristocratic primogeniture even refrained from marrying noble women and preferred concubines from conquered states who would be more loyal to the dynasty and not advance the political advances of their families. The Ottoman Empire began to decline when the Ottoman dynasty decided to adopted the European custom of primogeniture.
@@juliie007 noice blame the europeans racist af muslim doh
Actually the janissaries didnt betray. They were just corrupted and out of control. Also they were resisting against some innovations, reforms. They were not in a organization against the empire that we can call a "betreyal".
@@juliie007 most the concubines were sex slaves kidnapped from their homes and had their bodily autonomy violated, the Jannissaries were boys forcibly taken from their families. They only had opportunities to participate in a hierarchy that benefited the Ottoman Empire, they were still denied true self determination and denied the love of their families for the sake of the Ottoman state. Serfdom sucked but slavery is slavery, don’t pretend sex slaves or slave soldiers should be grateful for being taken from their families due to “economic opportunities”. You’re also obfuscating the horrific treatment of all the regular slaves who had no such opportunities with many enduring fates worse than death.
@@Sanakudou the issue of slavery was complex in the Ottoman period Europeans captured were treated better and offered better opportunities many went on to become prominent political figures earning their freedom through merit and queen mothers to the Sultans, the highest female rank However, slaves of non-European descent suffered as you have described.
ottoman history are always interesting to explored
Yes because they've the spirit of jihad fisabilillah
what is the interesting about stealing children?
Alexandros Mouzakidis see it like this , you are poor and the American state choose your child as future senator or army general or statesmen and want to give your child the best education, and pay your dad good money, and they didnt steal it because those lands belonged to the ottomans. Many pashas where from the balkans.
@@abdussametfiliz5484 wtf first of all they were poor cause the ottomans made you poor by taxing you extra cause you are Christian. Second, do you think that if in USA the state will go grab children unwillingly from poor people, force them to convert to a specific religion, send them to wars in Afghanistan or whatever and make them not see their families ever again it will be ok? Are you serious right now?

Thanks for him he served my country
He was also member of the Empire. Its his Empire too. So, he did serve his own country.
"adopt" is one way to describe this
Isix36 you do know the boxy were from really poor families that barley had food , when they were taken to the janissary they were living better then anyone at the time, they had free knowledge/school, training, food and places to sleep. In this century it’s really when you look at it, but back then it wasn’t like how y’all see it.
Abductet
@@djdj351 Respekt
Im Infinite Agreed
The Romans did the same the Persians did the same the Seljuks did the same there were many empires that had a similar system to the devshirme. It was the middle ages you maggots and it was a great system for an empire too recruit and train accomplished and loyal personel. Yes it happened, and I think it was a good system non of those boys were treated poorly or exploited in anyway, they lived luxurious lives better than anyone can imagibe so stop sobbing over it like little bitches and get over it ffs.

This sounds like glorification of kidnapping and which was very unpopular in the balkans.
@@selimthesaracen1805 where their families happy paying blood tax? Did they enjoy beeing forced to kill their own people? If it was a satisfying life for them, why did the ottomams only take non-muslims?
@@selimthesaracen1805 you are clearly brainwashed. On the eve of a wedding the lucky couple had to choose between giving a gold "dukat" och let the wife spend the first night with soldiers. And you speak of massacres the ottomans had massacres in all conqured contries just look at the bulgarians, serbians, greeks and armenians.
@@selimthesaracen1805 My ancesters lived trough the hell and some of the stories has been passed down. I know the truth. Have you ever heard of the word hareem, is that not keeping sex slaves? How does that fall in line with your world view? If you want sources just search for ottoman atrocities..
Here is one example:
listverse.com/2016/07/13/10-dark-secrets-of-the-ottoman-empire/
For those of you who are unaware, this is actually the story of a real grand vizier. Ayas Mehmed Pasha. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayas_Mehmed_Pasha
@1:20 they took him to istanbul not constantinople.. it was already part of the ottoman empire by then
The cities name in turkish was konstantinniye until the turkish republic was founded and the cities name was officially changed to istanbul
Fun fact: The origin of both words is Greek.
The Name Istanbul is given only in 1925. Till then it was Konstantinapolis (externally) or Konstantiniyye (internally documents).
The name changed to İstanbul after the Republic established. The official name of the city was "Konstantiniye" in the Ottoman times.
Nice documantery with great animation
I like this channel and it production feels like it has a high budget production

good job.
thanks, great work.
I want the Ottomans back I'm Kurd I know the Ottomans are Turks. But I still want them back many Kurds fighted in the Ottoman Army too and helped the Empire.
Osmanlı, Roma gibi kozmopolitti. Müslüman olan müslüman oldum değil Türk oldum derdi. Yani Türklük bir imparatorluk kimliğiydi, Türkçe ise imparatorluk lisanı. Atatürk de bu yüzden "kendini Türk hisseden herkes Türk'tür
" der. O yüzden kökenin ne olursa olsun kendini bu imparatorluğa ait hissediyorsan gururla ben Türk'üm diyebilirsin
Senin bu söylediğin koca bir oğuz soyuna hakaret ("Yani Türklük bir imparatorluk kimliğiydi") Bunu iyi niyetli söylemiş olabilirsin lakin bunu böyle lanse etmek çok yanlış. Osmanlının Ana kaynağı Anadoludur yani oğuz Türkleridir. Sipahiler Akıncılar Azaplar Anadolu'dan toplanırlar (Akıncılar için daha özel detaylı bir yol izlenir). Osmanlı çok uluslu bir devletti ve balkanlarda sırplar başta olmak üzere ermeniler rumlar araplar bu milletin askerini şehit eden nankör şerefsizlerdir onlarla sen koca Türk milletini aynı kefeye nasıl koyabilirsin ki? Daha bunun farkına varmanız için ne yapmaları gerekiyor? Savaş açıp binlerce Türk evladını daha mı şehit etmeleri gerekiyor bunu iyice kafanıza kazımanız için?
@@huseyinyldz3616 Ezbere konuşmayın. Beylik dönemi ile imparatorluk dönemi çok farklı. Anadolu demek Oğuz Türk'ü demek değil. Hatta tam tersine Oğuz Türkleri Anadolu'da azınlıktı. Anadolu halklarıyla kaynaştıkça Anadolu bir Türk yurdu haline geliyor. İmparatorluğun kurulmasıyla da artık tüm dünyadan insan bu coğrafyaya intikal etmeye başlıyor. Rumlar ve Sırplar haindir demişsiniz. Yunan harbini kazandıran paşa Rum kökenlidir. Kırım harbinde Rusları yenen başa ise Sırptır. Pek çok Ermeni aile tehcirden muaftır zira erkekleri Osmanlı ordusunda cenk etmektedir. Bu arada öz Türk diyebileceğimiz göçebe Türkler ta Selçuklu devrinden beri Anadolu'da isyandan isyana koşuyor. Yani şu bu hain bizimkiler süper uber diye bir şey yok. Günümüzün bakış açısıyla tarihi yorumlamaya çalışma
@ekşici siken Ee bunu kimse inkar etmedi zaten? Roma'yı da etrüskler kurmuştur lakin bir imparatorluğa dönüştükten sonra artık Roma etrüstlükten ibaret değildir. Sizin galiba idrak edemediğiniz şey bu. Osmanlı kozmopolit bir imparatorluk. Türk tanımı üst kimliği, Türk dili ise imparatorluk lisanıydı. Bugün Tr'de Türk kimliği altında yaşayan kaç Rum, Balkanlı, Kafkasyalı, Anadolulu, Arap veya Fars var bilmek imkansız. Birimiz kızıl birimiz siyah birimiz çekik gözlü diğeri esmer ama hepimiz kendimize Türk diyoruz
doesn't have to be turkish, i just hope there is a caliphate in this century that will defend muslims. Majority of muslims want righteous rulers, we hope the islamic scholars lead a caliphate revival movement.
Salavids where turkic ruled (oghuz/azerbaijan)
But the weird thing is he blaming the arab because the arab once invade his country which is sasanid and you say he is pure oghuz

janissaries are coool
May Allah bless our mehmed pasha
Meanwhile, these children were taken from their families for 1 gold. Even if they were taken by force, their families were paid the price of the children. Many families even volunteered because they wanted their children to be in good positions or to lead a better life.
Bosnians and albanians mostly volunteered but not the Serbs..Serbs were generally devout orthodox Christian and remain to this day.
Amazing and informative video hop u succesed and grow ur chanel u just earned a subscriber,keep up the good work.
All hail to the Emperor!
Love ❤️ Support ✅ Prayer 🤲🏻 To Ottoman Turkey 🇹🇷 From India 🇮🇳 ❤♥️
Janissaries were chosen from parentless children, they didn’t have anything to lose like their own children,mother,father or wife at these times, that was why they were so powerful.

very good video
There are a few records of Mehmed's private life. Therefore, the story should be perceived as a fictional story which is based on a real figure from the 15th century of the Ottoman Empire.
His full name is Ayas Mehmed Pasha
If you want do please the life of a ottoman prince
this video is way simpler than it shouldve been but its okay, i guess, for a small part of their history.
Fatyon is Ayas Mehmed Pasha
Where the heck is Constanople? Never heard of a place called that.
it's now known as Istanbul in modern-day Turkey :)
@@keeleyhaynes8521 No. That was Constantinople, I am quite familiar with that and its place in history. I was asking about Constanople that was mentioned repeatedly in the video.
Exactly my thought also. Constanople!!? WTF!

There is a list of all grand veziers of Ottoman empire. There were many albenian, georgian, serbian, greek grand veziers. Ottoman did not care the origin unless he is mislim and smart.
"Fat John"

Istanbul not Constantinople :)
Respect for my Albanian Brother 🇦🇱
Respect for what? For going against his own people by helping the Ottomans gaining more power in the Balkans? If he was a true Albanian he would never have done so much to expand the Ottoman Empire, instead he would have fought back the Ottomans as Skenderbeu and other Janissaries did, even if it meant loosing his own life. That would have deserved respect.

Hi
He isn't Sokollu He is Ayaz Mehmed Pasha
Were you speaking about Ayas Mehmed Pasha???
Sokullu Mehmet Pasha Ayaz Pasha lived in Sultan Suleiman's reign
@@ogzyurt498 Yes, but sokollu did not die during suleiman's reign. Ayaz Mehmed Pasha died during Suleiman's reign who succeeded Ibrahim Pasha as the grand vizier.
@@sadmuslimbro4369 as in the video he died by natural cause long after Sultan Selim died
@@ogzyurt498 Hmm, but the video says about Selim I. You can see that they showed the battle of chaldiran and ottoman conquest of Egypt. And we know that it was not Sokollu Mehmed Pasha who participated in those battles. It was Ayaz Mehmed Pasha who became grand vizier during the reign of Suleiman I. So that is why the story they showed is the story of Ayaz Mehmed Pasha.
Constantinople = "Cun(t)stinople"? Lol, That's a new one... I'd be interested to hear how he pronounces "Teotihuacan"... Very interesting video, though. 👍
nice
well i better not be typing this i could go to jail lmao
Janissaries are stronger than Spartans
Muslim from Pakistan' and i don't why but when ever i read or hear the word Yeniceri only one person comes to my mind' Shehzade Mustafa cuz of the love and respect of Yeniceris for him.
Janissaries always feel skilled soldiers close to them. Prince Mustafa was also a very talented soldier.
Janissaries are like the Samurais of West Asia

So in contrast of the Ottomans, the Spanish and French colonial armies were just exterminating entire villages instead make fusion and mix with them in Ottoman way.
The French and Spanish did not exterminate entire villages. Don't spout drivel!!! You have not read history!
I am not most supportive of Spanish state, but believe me, Iberian colonization was not bloodthirsty like people make you think, there was hierarchy system yes, but what killed thousands of pre-colombian populations were disease and pathogens that the Spanish and Portuguese brought to the new world, amerindians did not have developed antibodies to counter them and died en masse
@Project Seele Your propaganda!
@@cenktuneygok8986 indeed. Without Spanish colonists enslaving the native American populations, the native cultures WOULD recover in some generations. Probably not back to pre-Colombian situation, but they would be numerous again once more. Instead, they are oppressed to almost nothing in many Spanish, French, and English colonized areas.

We are working on it.
So the Ottomans "adopted" little kids from their families whom they never saw or heard from again, were given to totally different families and re-educated to be unflinchingly loyal to the Sultan. Sounds like kidnaping and forced indoctrination to me. Sure, those Christian families were poor. But what other choice did they have? Armed soldiers who conquered your lands come to your home and demand you give them your son. Sounds pretty evil to me. Ottomans were brutal and vicious. But hey, it worked!
Better than being a slave with chains at a marketplace in europe
@@baranyldz2511 Funny you should mention that. Arabs enslaved people up until the 1900s. Many islamists still do in parts of the world. When did the European Slave Trade end?
@@baranyldz2511 that’s the difference between slavery in Ottomans vs Europeans. Many Janissaries were later content to join the Ottoman Empire because they were offered opportunities that would have otherwise been inaccessible to them as much of Europe was under aristocratic primogeniture meaning only nobles had access to resources to better themselves. Most of these boys came from Eastern Europe where the strictest caste system of serfdom was implemented and if they had stayed they would have been indentured to their feudal lord all their lives. The Ottoman Empire began to decline when it adopted the European custom of primogeniture. Instead of the strongest sultan leading the empire the position was now inherited and the golden cages were created
@@tayloryoung9661 Not until 1880-1890 at least officially coz that’s when Brazil under the Portuguese ended slavery and I think Argentina too around that time but in Africa where colonialism was increasingly common indentured labor was rife in the Rubber plantations in Congo under Leopold Belgium rule.
@@juliie007 "Many Janissaries were content" They lived their whole lives being fanatically loyal to the empire that took them away from their families and trained them to kill. Of course they'd be happy to stay in the only life they've known for decades. Sure, Europe and most of the modern world were more advanced socially than the Ottomans. But that doesn't change the fact that these kids were taken from their families as kids just to be turned into soldiers. Trained to kill for their Ottoman masters.
That's Ayas Mehmed Pasha

So much mis information. Sultan Selim was not the sultan who had the most qonquers, it was Sultan Suleyman. This is a important fact in the ottoman history. Instead of watching those videos read books or wikipedia people
Money Talkzz Sultan Selim is the one who expanded the borders the most out of all Sultans. Sultan Suleiman outnumbered the campaigns his father did. Yet, he is the second Sultan in terms of expanding borders.

during the Ottoman period many Albanians became Muslims
Yes slowly Albania became muslim after 15th century since if they would become muslims they wouldnt have to pay jizya tax which is 2x more than muslim population
they grew up Bektasi (Sufian Urukfi brodherhood) in military garnison order and there was only one, and the Turks called it the Jannissairy house(yeniçeri kazan) trained only for close combat with rifles and two swords, and were masters of martial arts (coming from the east) and all the others who did not eat physically and mentally they passed to Sipahi families(mostly not Turks) and received other military or civilian education like this character in question or as an architect Sinani also from Albania ... over time the harvest becomes wilder in Albania because they were the only ones who managed to entered the Bektashi Cauldron. over 90% of the janissaries were Albanians other Croats or Serbs (janissaires is a nonsense, the right name is youngsoldier, in Turkish - YeniÇeri)
