So I've been wondering which would be better in the modern day, the modern middle eastern mess or the ottoman turks and if the ottoman turks had stayed in power how that may have affected the past and present. I don't have a position and want to hear yours.

Evidently the balkans would be much better off with Third Rome still in charge.

I would imagine the aristocracy of the Ottomans would be just like the House of Saud when ti comes to having no patience for ISIS and other Islamic fundamentalism.
It's a threat to their power so they would try to crush it completely.

Wut? The Saudi state itself funds and provides logistical support to Islamic State. This shit's not just a rumor or conspiracy theory anymore, Assange himself considered it the most important thing to come out of the Podesta leaks.

Saudi Arabia teaches and funds Islamic radicalism which is their source of power besides oil money.

The ottomans are much more liberal compared to wahabis sauds, infact most sunni extremism today can be attributed to the saudi wahabis religious puritanism

I think he meant how the Ottomans crushed the first saudi state and executed their leader.
