[[folder: Sultan Yag Uzun of Buchak]]

[[folder: Sultan Fatma of Balta]]

* MusclesAreMeaningless: He's rather short and skinny for his age. It doesn't stop him from beheading his enemies with single swings each anyway.

* DidntThinkThisThrough: As Ismail pointed out, Sultan Uzun was planning to turn his country into a center of trade and to secede from Greater Turkiye at the same time, which means The Kingdom of Buchak wouldn't even have the necessary power to protect their newfound wealth if they had succeeded.

* In the back: [[spoiler: How he met his end, at the hands of his friend no less]].

[[folder: Sultan Fatma]]

[[folder: Donatello d'Oria]]
