Was he the greatest Roman emperor ever?

He was neither Roman nor an emperor.

No one is like Caligula

>>1910758
Yes, he defeated the Greek usurpers and restored rightful Turkish Latin rule over the east.

>>1910765
Not OP but even if you start a non troll thread about the ottomans some shitters will ruin it with shitty /int/ memes anyway.
I think people have stopped tryign now.

That doesn't make any sense.

Since Russia was essentially the 4th incarnation of Rome, would Queen Elisabeth II be the current Roman emperess (since logically she would have inherited it from Nicholas II)

OK but what race do you think they are? what race do you think Romans of the peninsula were?

>>1910758
Even when considering him a "Roman" emperor and comparing to the others, still doesn't measure up to the likes of Augustus, Trajan, Heraclius, Alexios Komnenos, ect.

Beating on the sick, weakened old man that was the 15th century Byzantine Empire and a bunch of retarded slavs isn't really that impressive.

>>1910769
But there are plenty serious threads about Russia.

Why is he a ginger?

> still doesn't measure up to the likes of Augustus, Trajan, Heraclius, Alexios Komnenos, ect.

reallt? he easily measures up to all those guys
mehmed the conqueror was easily the greatest ruler of late medieval history
not only was he fluent in turkish, arabic, persian, greek, italian, serbian(and probably a few other languages) but he also knew engineering, mathematics, war theory. when he took constantinople he ordered the library to be translated to arabic(which was the science language of east at the time) immediately and even worked with multiple european scholars. he wrote poems(like most ottoman rulers) and knew both islamic and christian theologies(he used the orthodox church against the latins)

his grand plan wasn't to conquer in the name of islam but was to reunite rome under his empire. he was even planing to invade the italian peninsula, take rome and end the schism before he was poisoned

mehmed the conqueror was easily one of the greatest rulers of all times and the only reason why you would underestimate such a man would be because he was turkish

Even if he were a Roman Emperor he did literally nothing compared to any Golden Age Emperor. Even Nerva managed the entire Mediterranean.

>>1910769
So this thread is about Moscow ?

>>1915683
You say he dreamed of ending schisms, Augustus didn't dream, he did. He took a corrupt and divided republic and, despite all opposition against him, left it a flourishing empire that ushered in an age of relative peace and stability for the Mediterranean for 200 years. I don't know about you, but that sounds much more impressive then ending the misery of a decrepit empire and earning the butthurt of the balkans for half a millennium.

kill yourself turkic subhuman steppenigger.

Why would you want to be the next Rome? Make your own legacy.

>>1916004
Well he launched a campaign in Italy and captured a crucial fort then he got poisoned and died.

>>1913602
He is saying that turks and greeks are really close, genetically.

Nah even discounting the conquest and revitalization of Constantinople, Mehmed is pretty fucking based. Would have been interesting to see his desire to conquer Italy be realized.

Sadly, no.

His reforms only reached half the Roma invicta, while the rest was filled with degenerate celtic-germanic groups not being enlightened with the teachings of Ottoman sunnism.
