Real History Of Ibrahim

 his entire early life locked in a cage. Like many hard partying dudes throughout history, Murad the fourth succumb to cirrhosis in bringing his reign to an end. Upon Murad's death, Ibrahim became the new sultan. But it wasn't quite that simple. Ibrahim lived with the specter of death influencing his every move. Believing his life was almost always in danger. Muran whacked four of his siblings and locked him in a cage when he was eight and not as a prank like most older brothers.

 Furthermore, Muran suspected Ibrahim was unstable after spending years in isolation. On his deathbed, the Sultan ordered Ibrahim's execution. But he didn't count on his mother, Kawasim Sultan, stepping in and preventing his final order from being carried out. Even then, Ibrahim approached the throne with some skepticism.

That's a tough out. One story from claims the emperor was riding through Istanbul when the road was suddenly blocked by a massive carriage.

We could use an Ibrahim to deal with all these scooters. The van did not instantly cure congestion and traffic. So, the Sultan took out his anger on the Grand Vizier. After screaming at him for doing a poor job, he dismissed the Grand Vizier on the spot then off him shortly thereafter. That's a harsh exit interview.
