So, I’ve been binging on these historical docudramas lately, right? And I stumbled upon this one called “Rise of Empires: Ottoman.” Man, it’s a wild ride! It’s all about this Ottoman clan that starts from nothing and ends up conquering Constantinople. I mean, who doesn’t love a good underdog story, especially when it involves empires and epic battles?
I started watching it because, well, I’m a sucker for anything related to empires. I remember enjoying that “Roman Empire” series on Netflix, and this one had a similar vibe – you know, mixing drama with historical facts. It looked like high-quality production, and the storyline seemed interesting. Plus, who can resist a tale about a sultan named Mehmed II taking on a Byzantine capital? It sounded like a history lesson wrapped in an action movie!
I went in expecting to learn a bit more about the Ottoman Empire, and boy, did it deliver! It was like getting a front-row seat to history. The show dives into the whole story of how this clan went from zero to hero, conquering what they called the “City of the World’s Desire.” I guess this series is pretty popular on Netflix, and other platforms like Amazon. I wasn’t surprised.
I learned that the Ottomans were heavily influenced by Persian culture. The show’s got everything – drama, interviews with historians, and some seriously impressive battle scenes. The first season has, like, six episodes, and I heard there are two seasons in total. I binged the first six episodes in one go. Couldn’t stop! It’s one of those shows that keeps you glued to the screen, episode after episode.
What I really dug was how they mixed the storytelling. One minute you’re watching these intense, well-made drama scenes, and the next, you’re getting the lowdown from historians. It’s like the best of both worlds. And the actors, Cem Yiğit zmoğlu, Tommaso Basili, and Daniel Nuță – they were pretty good. They really brought the characters to life. Also, there is some kind of lust and money issue inside the series.

Honestly, if you’re into history or just love a good drama with lots of action, you’ve got to check out “Rise of Empires: Ottoman.” It’s like a history lesson, but way more exciting. This series is the perfect choice for someone who loved watching “Rise of Empires: Ottoman Season”. I’m already looking forward to season two. Who knew history could be this entertaining?
