The Ottoman Interregnum, or the Ottoman Civil War, ( 20 July 1402 – 5 July 1413 ) ( Fetret Devri in Turkish ) began on 20 July 1402, when chaos reigned in the Ottoman Empire following the defeat of Sultan Bayezid I by the Central Asian warlord Timur.

In Armies of the Ottoman Turks, 1300 – 1774, David Nicolle remarked that " he sizes of the two armies are reliably estimated at 140, 000 on Timur's side and no more than 85, 000 under Sultan Bayezid I ".

Lazar's young and weak successor Stefan Lazarevic ( 1389 – 1427 ) concluded a vassal agreement with Bayezid in 1390 to counter Hungarian moves into northern Serbia, while Vuk Brankovic, the last independent Serb prince, held out until 1392.

* Bayezid II ( 1447 – 1512 ), Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1481 to 1512

In 1391 however, John V was compelled to raze the fort by Sultan Bayezid I ( r. 1382 – 1402 ), who otherwise threatened to blind his son Manuel, whom he held captive.

Bayezid I ( 1389 – 1403 ) built a castle and tower there which can still be seen.

Bayezid II ( 1447 – 1512 ) founded the Galata Sarayı Enderun-u Hümayunu in 1481.

The city was acquired by Ottoman Sultan Bayezid I ( 1389 – 1402 ).

Although a civil war broke out between Bayezid I sons ', during 1402 – 1413, none of the Christian noblemen in the Balkans at the time seized the opportunity to repel the Ottomans ; in the contrary, Serbs and Hungarians even helped the future Sultan Mohammed I seize power, by participating as his allies in the final battle against his brother.

It was later given by Sultan Bayezid II to the Muslim Arab refugees from Al-Andalus who – together with the Sephardic Jews – escaped the Spanish Inquisition in 1492 and settled in the Galata neighborhood of Istanbul ( hence its current name, Arab Mosque.

** Bayezid I, sultan of the Ottoman Empire ( d. 1403 )

Civil war broke out among the sons of Sultan Bayezid I upon his death in 1403.

* From 8 March 1403 until 1413, the Ottoman Interregnum, a result of the death of Sultan Bayezid I at the hands of Central Asian warlord Timur.

After Bayezid died in 1403, the Ottoman Empire went into a political crisis.

Bayezid ascended to the throne following the death of his father Murad I, who was killed by Serbian knight Miloš Obilić during ( June 15 ), or immediately after ( June 16 ), the Battle of Kosovo in 1389, by which Serbia became a vassal of the Ottoman Empire.

Bayezid recognized Stefan Lazarević, the son of Lazar, as the new Serbian leader ( later despot ), with considerable autonomy.

The Ottomans were superior in number, but on October 10, 1394 ( or 17 May 1395 ), in the Battle of Rovine, on forested and swampy terrain, the Wallachians won the fierce battle and prevented Bayezid from conquering the country.

Beginning in the reign of Bayezid II ( d. 1512 ), transfers were used to manage the Ottoman state's difficulty with the heterodox kizilbas movement in eastern Anatolia.

As a result of Karamanli Mehmet's scheming, the Janissary corps ( who supported Bayezid over Cem ), entered the capital and murdered the vizier.

In exchange for maintaining the custody of Cem, Bayezid paid Innocent VIII 120, 000 crowns ( at the time, equal to all other annual sources of papal revenue combined ), a relic of the Holy Lance ( which allegedly had pierced the side of Christ ), one-hundred Moorish slaves, and an annual fee of 45, 000 ducats.

Eyalet of Rûm ( originally Arabic for Rome ), later named as the Eyalet of Sivas, was an Ottoman eyalet in northern Anatolia, founded following Bayezid I's conquest of the area in the 1390s.

Beyazid ( also spelt Beyazıt, Bayezid, Bayazid, Bajazet, Beyazit, Bejazid or Bayazit ), an Arabic, Persian, and Turkish name, from the Arabic بايزيد, meaning father of Yazid, may refer to:

Towards the end of the century Sultan Bayezid II assigned the building to the Muslims of Spain ( Andalusia ), p. who fled the Spanish Inquisition and migrated to Istanbul ; hence the present name Arap Camii ( Arab Mosque ).

Similarly, the origin of the above quatrain itself seems to be historical: Gian Francesco Poggio Bracciolini ’ s De Varietate Fortunae (' On the Vicissitudes of Fortune ') of around 1430 contrasts the fates of the German King Sigismund of Hungary ( who, after being defeated at the battle of Nicopolis on the banks of the Danube in 1396, became King of Germany and attended a Church council at Constance, at the source of the Rhine, in 1414 ) and of his triumphant opponent, the Sultan Bayezid I ( also known as Bajazet ), who had meanwhile been captured and dragged all over Asia in an iron cage by Tamerlane, just as the verse recounts.
