What is The Ottoman Empire
The sultan and the palace are at the head of the Ottoman central government and state. As the residence and place of duty of the head of state, the palace was also the administrative center of the Ottoman Empire.
The 19th century of the palace, which was in a way the residence and office of the head of state, is less well known than the 16th and 17th centuries. Especially, it is not possible to compare the studies on the Ottoman Palace with its contemporary Russian Palace; It is not possible to compare it with the monographs and information about the Byzantine Palace in the past centuries.
Topkapi Palace is located in the center of the Ottoman Empire administrative district in Istanbul. Fatih Sultan Mehmed Han puts an end to the Eastern Roman Empire with the Conquest of Istanbul. Here, the concept of Byzantium should also be emphasized, because the empire called Byzantium is actually the Eastern Roman Empire. The people of that empire never used the name Byzantium. Byzantium is a name used by the German scholar Hieronimus Wolff in the 16th century. Calling the empire Byzantium, this city Byzantium, and the people of this country Byzantines is the 16th century Western European ascription. Behind it lies the political mission of legitimizing the Holy Roman-Germanic Empire.
