The year 1326 was a time of important changes, especially for the growing Ottoman Empire. This year saw a new leader take charge, guiding the empire into its next phase of development.
A New Leader for the Ottoman Empire
In 1326, the Ottoman Empire welcomed a new ruler. The first emperor, Osman I, who had led the empire since 1299, passed away. His son, Orhan I, then took over as the new emperor. Orhan I would go on to rule the Ottoman Empire until 1359. This change in leadership was a big moment for the empire, as Orhan I continued to expand and strengthen its power.
