An amazing historical plot with complicated political dynamics and dives deep into advanced systems of government. Although fictional it achieves to recreate the feel of real world historical foreign affairs. It doesn't have a clear black and white good and evil as even some of the protagonists do immoral acts during the show's run. It represents multiple real world historical empires and countries in fictional form such as Venice, the Muscovites etc. The characters are great and every one of them could have their own anime. Top tier worldbuilding. Overall a great watch which I would certainly recommend to anyone interested in history or fascinatedby Turkish culture.
