Kitap Yayınevi Osmanlı Across the Border from Yemen to Basra

Product description

Few of us have detailed knowledge about the famous ottoman sailor and geographer, pirî reis, who was the author of the book of navigation, setting off from süveyş with 850 soldiers, 30 galleys and galleys in 1552 and surrounding hormuz. It is rare that our history books write about the encounters of the ottoman navy with the portuguese navy in the red sea and the indian ocean, and about the ottoman merchant's struggle with the portuguese for the trade network in the region. It turns out that the historical geography of the arab world to our southern neighbours is being studied in turkish historiography in a very limited way, which is by no means satisfactory.

however, a better knowledge of our history will enable us to look at the past with a sense of history that is not nationalistic, and better understand the world in which our country is located in the south.

Here is prof., who is known especially by his studies on the history of this region.

Dr. In this book, salih özbaran solves the order that the ottoman empire tried to establish in its distant provinces, from bahrain to basra and the indian ocean, based on both ottoman and portuguese archives.

it would not be possible for an empire that had exceeded its limits by far to repeat the order it had established in core regions such as anatolia and the near rumelia in distant provinces.

administrators have concentrated in the system of enforcement here.

they did not cultivate the groomed and “bearded”

they went as far as possible to collect cash taxes

they even deployed the lowest-ranking soldiers as “guarantees/refugees” for this business.

most of the soldiers were ''volunteers''-young people who were sick and tired of the war and rush to the ranks from all corners of the empire, grabbing their rifles. However, all these organizations were not sufficient in the formation of the borderlands of the unlimited empire. The rate of taxes collected on goods coming from the indian ocean remained low among all revenues. Frequently, taxes collected from the soil or products of the peasant's hand, from artisans, marketplaces, bazaars were not enough

even if they were, a large part of them was allocated for military feeding.

he was saving border guards from aid, which came from the imperial center and closer to the center, and from richer provinces.

we hope that this book will be a guide for those who want to learn little-known and unfamiliar pages of ottoman history.
