Did you know?
The last Sultan of the Ottoman Empire
always carried a pistol in his pocket…
because he lived under constant fear of assassination.
Sultan Mehmed VI Vahideddin
was the final ruler
to sit on the throne of the
six-hundred-year-old
Ottoman Empire.
He was born on 14 January 1861
and became Sultan during one of the most
turbulent periods in history.
When Sultan Mehmed VI assumed power,
the Ottoman Empire was suffering from
continuous military defeats,
foreign intervention,
and severe internal political instability.
The situation was so dire
that the Sultan feared for his life,
which is why he always kept
a pistol in his pocket.
Eventually, in 1922,
he was forcibly removed from the throne
and compelled to leave his homeland.
Less than a year after his exile,
under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk,
the Republic of Turkey was established.
The last Sultan of the Ottoman Empire
passed away on 16 May 1926
in exile, in San Remo, Italy.
Thus, a great empire
silently became part of history.
