In this episode of The Story of Turkey, Lucas and Luna explore the hidden power behind the Ottoman throne: the valide sultans, or queen mothers. From the rise of Hürrem Sultan in the 16th century to the regency of Kösem Sultan in the 17th, they examine how women wielded political influence through the harem, often shaping imperial policy. Discover the story of Turhan Hatice Sultan, who commissioned the Yeni Cami in Istanbul and ruled as regent for her son Mehmed IV. Learn about the 'Sultanate of Women' period, a century when the empire was effectively run by valide sultans. Lucas brings to life the intrigues of Topkapı Palace, the role of the Chief Black Eunuch, and how these women managed factions, built mosques, and even controlled the succession. This episode challenges the notion of the Ottoman Empire as purely patriarchal and reveals the complex dynamics of power behind the veil. #OttomanEmpire #ValideSultan #HürremSultan #KösemSultan #TurhanHatice #SultanateOfWomen #TopkapıPalace #Harem #YeniCami #MehmedIV #SuleimanTheMagnificent #OttomanHistory #WomenInHistory #ByzantiumToTurkey #FexingoHistory #HistoryPodcast #MiddleEastHistory #Istanbul Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
