Mahmud II
Mahmud II was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1808 to 1839, known for his extensive reforms aimed at modernizing the empire and centralizing authority. His reign was marked by significant political and social changes, including the abolition of the Janissary corps, the implementation of military and educational reforms, and efforts to reduce the power of the regional leaders. However, his response to the Greek War of Independence led to harsh measures against the Christian population, including the execution of Patriarch Gregory V.
