He succeeded his father Mehmed III ( 1595 – 1603 ) in 1603 at age 13.

Ahmed III ( Ottoman Turkish: احمد ثالث Aḥmed-i < u > s </ u > āli < u > s </ u >) < span dir =" ltr ">( December 30 / 31, 1673 – July 1, 1736 )</ span > was Sultan of the Ottoman Empire and a son of Sultan Mehmed IV ( 1648 – 87 ).

Another youth Mehmed found attractive, and who was presumably more accommodating, was Radu III the Fair, the brother of the famous Vlad the Impaler, “ Radu, a hostage in Istanbul whose good looks had caught the Sultan ’ s fancy, and who was thus singled out to serve as one of his most favored pages .” After the defeat of Vlad, Mehmed placed Radu on the throne of Wallachia as a vassal ruler.

* 1462 – Vlad III the Impaler attempts to assassinate Mehmed II ( The Night Attack ) forcing him to retreat from Wallachia.

The discontent grew to open rebellion, fed by both Ottoman and British money and support: Bashir II fled, the Ottoman empire reasserted control and Mehmed Hüsrev Pasha, whose sole term as Grand Vizier ran from 1839 to 1841, appointed another member of the Shihab family, who styled himself Bashir III.

* 1566 – Mehmed III, Ottoman Emperor ( d. 1603 )

through his marriage to his maternal relative Valide Sultan Safiye Sultan, originally named Sofia Baffo, a Venetian noblewoman, mother of Mehmed III.

This diplomacy would be continued under Murad's successor Mehmed III, by both the sultan and Safiye Sultan alike.

Mehmed III Adli ( Ottoman Turkish: محمد ثالث Meḥmed-i < u > s </ u > āli < u > s </ u >, Turkish: III. Mehmet ; < span dir =" ltr "> May 26, 1566 – December 21 / 22, 1603 )</ span > was sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1595 until his death.

Mehmed III remains notorious even in Ottoman history for having nineteen of his brothers and half brothers executed to secure power.

Mehmed III was an idle ruler, leaving government to his mother Safiye Sultan, the valide sultan.

Ottoman defeats in the war caused Mehmed III to take personal command of the army, the first sultan to do so since Suleyman I. Mehmed III's armies conquered Eger in 1596 and defeated the Habsburg and Transylvanian forces at the Battle of Keresztes ( Turkish for Battle of Hacova ) during which the Sultan had to be dissuaded from fleeing the field halfway through the battle.

Mehmed III was more conservative than his predecessor and largely halted artistic patronage, including support of the Society of Miniaturists.
