Detailed explanation-1: -At its greatest extent, the empire extended to three continents–stretching from the Balkans in southeastern Europe across Anatolia, Central Asia, Arabia, and North Africa, thanks in large part to the Ottoman military and its use of gunpowder.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Ottoman Empire was one of the mightiest and longest-lasting dynasties in world history. This Islamic-run superpower ruled large areas of the Middle East, Eastern Europe and North Africa for more than 600 years.
Detailed explanation-3: -At its height, during the 16th and 17th centuries, the Ottoman Empire encompassed 43 present-day countries in southeastern Europe, western Asia, and northern Africa. The Ottomans were overwhelmingly Islamic. The Sultan was considered to be the supreme ruler, but he often delegated much of his power to lower officials.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Ottoman Empire had a territorial size of 19.9 million km² (7.6 million sq mi). However, the rest of the Kingdom of Hungary, including western and northern (Upper) Hungary and Croatia, was still in Habsburg possession. Suleiman also conquered Iraq in his conflict with the Safavid dynasty.
