#Gulbahar Sultan

[magnificentlyreused]

This dark blue and silver dress was first worn by Hürrem Sultan in the sixth episode of the third season of Magnificent Century. Like many other of her costumes, this one was also worn again by Fatma Sultan in the twenty-third episode of the fourth season.

The dress also appears twice in Magnificent Century: Kösem, first on Halime Sultan in the final episode of the first season and then again on Gülbahar Sultan in the thirteenth episode of the second season.

So Flashback!Kösem has joined the chat on my confusion and at this point I'm pretty sure these are two different clothing items. The patterns line up for young Kösem and older Kösem but I can't get them to line up with the other four without making the kaftan completely unwearable. However at this point I don't even think Hürrem's is a kaftan anymore but actually a dress. Usually with kaftans, the base dress tends to be different but I have seen this one only ever with the dark blue dress underneath. It would also explain why it always seems to stick so perfectly to the chest and stomach area when there is no clasp to hold it in place with tension. But if you have another theory, please tell me, because I have definitely spent too much time on this and I could probably convince myself of everything I want just to solve the mystery.

Mehmed II Conqueror + consorts (pictures are for aesthetic)

Emine Gülbahar Hatun — was a favourite consort of Sultan Mehmed II. In most sources she is referred as non-muslim slave who was converted to Islam after her arrival to the harem. There is no agreement on her origins some historians think she was Pontic Greek, Albanian or lowly Slavic. She was the mother of the future Sultan Bayezid II and Gevherhan Hatun. She died circa 1492 and was buried in her mausoleum inside the Fatih Mosque next to her late husband.

Çiçek Yagmur Hatun — was a wife or consort of Sultan Mehmed II. According to some sources she could have been Turkish noblewoman or Serbian, Greek, Venetian, French slave. She entered the harem or married Mehmed at Constantinople and gave birth to her only son Şehzade Cem (Ottoman claimant Sultan) on 22 December 1459. It is not known the degree of influence she had during Mehmed’s reign or if she even was favoured by him. She died on 3 May 1498 of plague and was buried in Cairo.

Hatice Hatun — was a thrid legal wife of Sultan Mehmed II. She was a possible daughter of Zaganos Mehmed Pasha. In 1463 she became Mehmed's third legal wife. After her husband death she remarried with a statesman.

Sitti Mükrime Hatun — was a Turkish Princess and first legal wife of Sultan Mehmed II. Her father was Süleyman Bey the sixth ruler of Dulkadir State. When Mehmed turned seventeen he married her for political purposes. Her possible offspring is unknown. Due to her middle name Sittişah is sometimes confused with Gülbahar Mükrime Hatun another consort of Mehmed. She died in September 1486 and was buried in a mausoleum built inside her mosque.

Helena Palaiologina — was a possible wife of Sultan Mehmed II. Her entering the Sultan's harem is controversial and remain unconfirmed. She was a daughter of the Despot of Morea Demetrios Paleologos the brother of Constantine XI Palaiologos the final Byzantine emperor and Theodora Asanina the daughter of Paul Asan. Some rumors says Mehmed II asked for her after his campaign in Morea having heard of her beauty. Probably he never bedded with her because he was afraid she would poison him. In another case Helena was provided with a pension and large estate at Adrianople by the Sultan though she was forbidden to marry. She died of unknown causes in 1469 or 1470 in Edirne.

Gülşah Hatun — was a second legal wife or consort of Sultan Mehmed II. There is no informations about her origins. She married Mehmed or entered his harem in 1449 when he was still a Prince and the governor of Manisa. Shortly before Murad’s II death she gave a birth to her only son Şehzade Mustafa and followed him to Konya when he became governor of the province. She died circa 1487 and was buried in Bursa in the tomb she had built for herself near that of Mustafa.

Maria Hatun — was a consort of Sultan Mehmed II. Before she entered Mehmed’s harem she was a widow of Alexander Komnenos Asen. According to some sources she was judicated as the most beautiful woman of her age. Some historians claims she could be more likely Murad’s II concubine than Mehmed’s.

Anna Hatun — was a consort of Sultan Mehmed II. Her parents were Trabzon Greek emperor David Komnenos and Helena Kantakuzenos. The marriage was initially proposed by her father, but Mehmed refused. Nontheless when Trabzon was taken in 1461 Anna entered the harem and stayed there for two years after which Mehmed married her off to Zaganos Mehmed Pasha.

Sultan Mehmed II X Emine Gülbahar Mükrime Hatun

In January 1448 a son was born to Mehmed Çelebi in Thracian Dimotika, by a slave girl named Gülbahar. The boy was given the name of Bayezid and was later (1481) to mount the Ottoman throne as the second sultan of this name. There is no doubt that this union was beneath Mehmed's station: Gülbahar bint Abdullah, whom Turkish legend sub- sequently transformed into a "daughter of the king of France," was a Christian slave of Albanian origin. It is equally certain, as we shall see later on, that Mehmed preserved a particular affection for her as long as he lived. From the fact that Gülbahar Hatun bore her child in Dimotika, it may be inferred that Mehmed was back in Europe by the beginning of 1448 at the latest and perhaps even that he was residing there. Dimotika was the site of an old Byzantine castle, with a double ring of walls, preserved by the sultans and sometimes used for the Ottoman state treasury.

P.s. She also bore him a daughter named Geverhan Sultan.

Yes, it's time to talk about all the people Sultan Murad lost.

⏭️ Will do All the people Sultan Suleyman lost next.

And I will not mention his brother's death because those were not his fault. (Osman's and Mehmet's)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

👦🏻Musa Çelebi, his best friend (and lover) ➡️He died in a rebellion and Murad could do nothing. Their story is heartbreaking. ❌Only death in this list is that definitely not Murad's fault but also probably the death Murad blames himself the most.

👸🏻Gevheran Sultan, his sister ➡️Murat first killed her husband and then forced her to marry his mother's secret lover. She committed suicide at her wedding. ✅Murat's fault, also can be Atike's fault, and also can be Silahtar's fault depending on where you look.

👸🏻 Ayşe Sultan, his wife number 1 ➡️ She killed herself after finding out Murad had ordered her death. Murad decided to kill her because she was the reason Farya lost her baby and the giant fire in the capitol. ✅Definitely Murad's fault. Maybe Farya can share a little of the blame since she informed Ayşe of her pending demise but definitely 95 percent Murad's fault.

➕

👸🏻🤴🏼Murad's son and daughter ➡️Ayşe poisoned them. ✅Still Murad's fault. Ayşe was desperate and I think she thought Murad would harm their son in the future and since she wasn't going to be able to protect them, she chose to take her children with her. This wasn't an act of selfishness or desire to get even with Murad. She just wanted to protect them from Murad's cruel side.

🤴🏻Şehzade Beyazıd, his brother ➡️He got executed on Murad's orders in the palace, in his home. ✅❌Again partly Murad's fault, partly Gulbahar Sultan's fault. Murad shouldn't have made him kill his lover, shouldn't have made him feel like he could kill him any second. Gulbahar on the other hand made everything possible for her son to die. If she had just waited, Beyazıd would have ascended to the throne regardless.

👸🏻Farya, wife number 2 ➡️Kosem killed her before this though Murad had tried to kill her but couldn't, after finding out she was pregnant. ❌✅Kosem's fault, but Murad had already tried to kill her... sooo I don't know?

👦🏻Silahtar Mustafa, his best friend ➡️Kosem killed her. ❌Don't like him. Don't care. Wasn't Murad's fault.

🤴🏻Şehzade Kasım, his brother ➡️Murad ordered his death after Kosem tried to dethrone him and give his empire Kasım ✅❌ Kosem's ambitions. Murad's unreasonable hatred towards his mother. Both are equally guilty.

🤴🏻🤴🏻Şehzade Selim and Şehzade Suleyman, his sons ➡️Murad's sons. They died due to force contamination by the plague. ✅It's Murad's fault. For not killing Gulbahar, for killing Beyazıt, for failing to keep their mother Farya alive and for not listening to Kosem.

👑 Sultan Murad, himself ➡️He died because he refused to listen to his mother, he was cruel and didn't listen to doctors and kept drinking. Also, all the deaths I mentioned above *might have* affected him and his health. ✅Definitly his fault

This golden and green kaftan was first worn by Hafsa Sultan in the third episode of the second season of Magnificent Century. It can be seen again on Mahidevran Sultan in the twenty-second episode of the same season. The kaftan is worn by an unnamed harem member in the third episode of the fourth season, before it can be seen on Nurbanu Sultan in the thirty-first episode.

Magnificent Century: Kösem used the kaftan on Gülbahar Sultan in the first season.

@ibrahimnerde asked me to write a post on how Gülbahar from MCK managed to get very loyal subjects almost immediately.

I think what works in Gülbahar's favor when it comes to gathering supporters is a combination of the dedication and allure necessary to win people over. She realizes the importance of gathering supporters and the way that could benefit her goal, so she utilizes all the methods she knows to ensure absolute loyalty and good results. She is willing to take people under her wing and work with them until they've become devoted enough for her to start urging them to prove their loyalty (as we see with the concubines in the hammam in E34). She is willing to take all she has: to both use the favors of those already on board and make new alliances if and whenever she has the chance.

At the same time, she applies a lot of manipulation to bring people to her side and make them act as she wishes. In one scenario (i.e Ayşe), she would test the waters first, searching for something that could bring her advantage in the war she's fighting against Murat and Kösem. And if she sees potential, it's then she would begin to act. She has the ability to put the people around her at ease, making them believe they could always trust her. She would push as many buttons as she sees fit, she would put herself in their shoes, acting like she's relating to their experiences, even though she has ulterior motives in mind. She would make subtle hints to push them to achieve her own desired outcome. The many ways she can adjust to who she's trying to make loyal are certainly impressive and aid her severely to what she's attempting to do. The mix of all of this is perhaps why she could take in so many by herself. It just guarantees success, albeit it's not always guaranteed that the initial loyalty would persist.

She could also use bribery to assure loyalty, which appears to be some kind of a tried and true method, established back in MC. It's probably how it is for Gülbahar, too, since she's sure been long enough in this game to know that this is a practice that could grant more security to the other side and could be the only effective tactic left, if nothing else you do convinces the people you're trying to amass. And truly, Gülbahar is seen to use it as her last resort when it came to Esther: give her the most advantageous way out and ensure her that she'll reward her well. However, bribery is probably the most ineffective approach of Gülbahar's when it comes to loyalty, because both times I recall she used it, were not quite successful. Bayezid's paid supporters didn't amount to much, while Esther outrightly refused to accept Gülbahar's bribery.

There's one thing I sometimes wonder about, though: could the people we see around Gülbahar be mostly loyal also because she disposes of those who betray her trust? One of her first scenes was her almost immediately ending a concubine who betrayed her in a pretty devastating and ruthless manner. Then it's established just how much Gülbahar values loyalty: she wouldn't ever allow mistakes since she's out there fighting a war. Failure is not an option; there's this "all or nothing" view on loyalty on an even bigger degree. That, coupled with her cruelty which's been allowed to grow and manifest every day during and after the exile, sort of convinces me that she wouldn't let anyone disloyal live. She wouldn't tolerate betrayal even for a second.

I think one thing I would change about the first season of Kösem is Katerina. Instead of writing her off, I would turn her into Gülbahar later. Gülbahar came out of nowhere at the end. I think having Katerina lingering around, always a thorn in Kösem’s side while behaving according to the rules, so everyone else thinks she is harmless, would have brought more to the character than someone we see for like three scenes and then suddenly is this massive character in the second season.
