| Ottoman Empire
I sincerely believe more and better films or series should come about Turkish history. Ottoman Rising has successfully tried to depict a certain period of Turkish history. The cinematography suits the demands of the plot quite well. The plot serves the probable goals of the director quite well. The soundtrack suitably adds to the artistic effect of the series. The acting is quite good; especially that of the Sultan Mehmet, the Conqueror. All in all, I would highly recommend this series for the lovers of history who are after a balanced and objective depiction of the past.

Trivia

George Sphrantzes was the Emperor Constantine XI's personal secretary and friend. According to his own account of the conquest of Constantinople, his daughter Thamar (named Therma in the series) was 12 years old when the city fell and was taken into captivity by the Turks, dying in the Sultan's harem in September 1455 of an infectious disease. Therefore, the series inaccurately portrays her as having escaped to the island of Chios. There is also no evidence that Thamar and Giovanni Giustiniani Longo, the leader of the Genoese mercenaries, were in a romantic relationship.
