Kuruluş: Osman Season 5 introduces a character named Mehmet Bey, portrayed as the son of the tribal chief Yaqoob Bey. Yaqoob Bey is the leader of the mid-tribe, and both he and his son Mehmet Bey are considered sultans among all tribes and Turks. However, the entire Osman Bey’s family, including Mehmet Bey, views Yaqoob Bey and his family as enemies. In each upcoming episode, we witness that both Yaqoob Bey and his son Mehmet Bey hold strong animosity towards Osman Bey. For this reason, I am working on a new project to devise a plan that would ultimately endanger the life of Osman Bey. The enmity between Osman Bey and Yaqoob Bey, as per historical records, spans over a long period.

If I were to provide you with all the information regarding their enmity, the video would be quite lengthy. However, I have already created a video related to the history of Yaqoob Bey and his enmity with Osman Bey. In this video, you will find information about who Yaqoob Bey was, how his hostility with Osman Bey originated, and much more. You can watch this video to gain a comprehensive understanding. So, readers, the enmity that Mehmet Bey holds against Osman Bey and his family is an inheritance from his father, Yaqoob Bey. Yaqoob Bey claimed that after the Seljuk Empire, only he has the right to establish a state for the Turks, and this claim has been passed down as an inheritance to his son. This is the primary reason for their animosity with Osman Bey and his descendants.
Real History of Mehmet Bey in Kurulus Osman Season 5 in Urdu
Furthermore, the first reason for this enmity, as perceived by the readers, is Osman Bey’s refusal to acknowledge the true origins of the Germeyan tribe, despite being smaller in terms of territory and population than Osman Bey’s empire. The second reason for this hostility, according to the Jalwazli Balabad, is that during that time, Osman Bey’s army consisted of 30,000 soldiers, whereas Yaqoob Bey received 100,000 dinars in taxes and valuable goods every year from the Byzantine Empire. From this information, you can estimate what Yaqoob Bey might have thought of the small building of Osman Bey in comparison to his own borders. “And in the year 1340, when Yaqoob Bey passed away, his son Mehmet Bey ascended the throne. However, it is known that during the siege of Söğüt, which occurred in 1324 during the reign of Osman Gazi, and continued to expand the Ottoman territories, the heir of the Ottoman Empire, Han, was swiftly achieving conquests in the Byzantine regions.
Before delving further, let me address whether there were any other sons of Yaqoob Bey besides Mehmet Bey. Readers, if we look at the history, a marble throne was found in the city that served as the capital of the Germeyan principality, dating back to 1363. It is mentioned that Mehmet Bey had another brother named Musa. However, apart from this information on the stone, there is no mention of any other offspring of Yaqoob Bey. Nevertheless, after securing the leadership of the Germeyan tribe, Mehmet Bey, who was also known by the title of Shada, was known for his loving and successful character. The name Mehmet Bey, when translated into Urdu, means filled with successes that make the earth prosperous.
Now, let’s talk about the conquests of Mehmet Bey. While maintaining the leadership of the Germeyan tribe, Mehmet Bey successfully recaptured the regions of Kola and Angir through warfare, which had been seized by the Catalan Company. Mehmet Bey ruled over the Germeyan principality from 1340 to 1361, but during this period, relations with the Ottomans never improved. Readers, let’s now discuss the peace negotiations between Mehmet Bey and Osman Bey’s tribes. Both leaders focused on their conquests, but they never made efforts to improve relations. Mehmet Bey had a son named Suleiman Shah, who played a significant role in achieving peace between the two empires.
Suleiman Shah became the leader of the Germeyans in 1361 and was known as Shah Jalami. During this period, Mehmet Bey’s son, Suleiman Shah, was apprehensive about the Ottoman territories and was trying to save his Germeyan principality. In pursuit of this goal, he wished to arrange the marriage of his daughter to the son of Sultan Murad I, Yezid. It is noteworthy that Murad I and Han Gazi had a son and grandson named Suleiman Shah. Sultan Murad I welcomed this proposal as it would strengthen the Ottoman position in Anatolia. Suleiman Shah became the leader of the Catalans in 1361, and during this time, relations with the Ottomans did not improve.
Readers, now let’s talk about the marriage proposal in detail. Suleiman Shah was uneasy about the Germeyan territories and sought to save his principality. In 1381, this marriage took place between Suleiman Shah’s daughter and Yezid, who was not a sultan at that time. However, Yezid was sent to manage the Catalans’ affairs. Suleiman Shah continued to reside in the Kuhl region, and he passed away in 1387.
In the end, I would like to inform you, readers, that by the year 1390, all the lands of the Germeyans had come under the control of the Ottomans.”
