Sultan Bayezid is dead. His four sons, Sulyeman, Isa, Musa, and Mehmed all vie for the Sultanate and bring the Anatolian and European countryside to another round of devastating wars. A pivotal moment in Ottoman history, the Interregnum, or Civil War period lasted for about ten years. Listen as one brother after another rises to prominence then falls, by either folly or treachery, to the subtle wiles of Mehmed.
