Ottoman Empire

The Ottoman Empire is a country that spans most of the Middle East. It is a founding member of the League of Nations and the fourth largest economy in the world.

History
During the Arrival, several Arks crash-landed all across the Ottoman Empire. Similar to the United Commonwealth, the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire employed the colonists as a labor force and began industrializing.

In 1875, the middle and lower classes of the Ottoman Empire rose up against the Sultan and the upper class. The Sultan's son, Şehzade Yusuf Izzeddin, soon succeeded his father and instituted several reforms which transformed the Ottoman Empire into a constitutional monarchy and allowed for freedom of religion and speech.

Government and politics
The Ottoman Empire is a constitutional monarchy. The Sultan serves as the head of state, though their role is mostly ceremonial, with little to no political power. The Prime Minister serves as the head of government.

The legislature of the Ottoman Empire is known as the Parliament. The Parliament is bicameral and divided between the National Council and the Council of States.
