Αυτά για να βλέπουμε την καταγωγή ορισμένων ανθρώπων που μας έχουνε κυβερνήσει. Μας έχουνε κυβερνήσει τάζοντάς μας σεμνότητα και ταπεινότητα, επανίδρυση του κράτους, σύνθλιψη των εθνικών νταβατζίδων κ.α.

As a grand vizier
After conquering Constantinople and the execution of Grand Vizier Çandarlı Halil Pasha, Mehmed II had preferred to appoint Grand Viziers of devsirme origin instead of Ethnic Turks to avoid possible crises caused by over-powerful Grand Viziers.[3] After executing his last Turkish, his next four grand viziers were of devsirme origin. Karamani Mehmed's appointment as Grand Vizier in 1476 therefore marks a notable exception, for he was a Turk from the recently conquered Karamanid territory in Anatolia. In his short term in the office, Karamani Mehmed tried to reform the Ottoman administration.Death of Mehmed II and Karamani Mehmed
In 1481, Mehmed II died. In the Ottoman Empire, it was the duty of the Grand Viziers to delay the announcement of a Sultan's death before the claimant to throne arrived in the capital, in order to avoid chaos. However in this case, the sultan’s sons were far away; Bayezid (later Bayezid II) was in Amasya and Cem Sultan was in Karaman, Karamani Mehmed’s home town. Karamani Mehmed sent messengers to both princes,[4] but as Karaman was nearer to the capital, Cem had a better chance to reach it before his older brother. Nevertheless, the Janissaries who were supporting Bayezid learned about the Sultan’s death and they further suspected that Karamani Mehmed was backing Cem. They revolted and killed Karamani Mehmed a few days after the death of the Sultan.[5]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karamani_Mehmet_Pasha
