Answer 1

Mehmet II, (Fatih Sultan Mehmet) called the Conqueror, born in March 30, 1432, died in May 3, 1481 was sultan of the Ottoman Empire in1444-46 and 1451-81. He extended Ottoman control of southeastern Europe to the Danube and of Anatolia to the Euphrates. His father, Murat II, tried to abdicate when he was only 12 years old, but his unsuccessful first reign, made his father to return to power.

After his father's death, he tried to create a world empire like that of the Romans by first conquering Byzantine Constantinople in 1453 and rebuilt it into the prosperous Ottoman capital of Istanbul. He conquered Serbia in 1459 and the Morea by 1460, extending the empire in Europe to the Danube and the Aegean despite resistance from Albania and Venice. He conquered Anatolia in 1461 as far as the Euphrates from the Turkmen principalities, but failed to push further due to resistance from the Mamelukes of Syria as well as from the White Sheep Turkmen of Iran. He was just beginning new campaigns to capture Rhodes and southern Italy when he died suddenly in 1481. Mehmet was succeeded by his son, Bayezid II.

Answer 3

Mehmed II (also known as el-Fatih (الفاتح), "the Conqueror", in Ottoman Turkish, or, in modern Turkish, Fatih Sultan Mehmet) (March 30, 1432 – May 3, 1481) (Ottoman Turkish: محمد ثانى Mehmed-i sānī) was first the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire for a short time from 1444 to 1446, and later from 1451 to 1481. At the age of 21, he conquered Constantinople, bringing an end to the Byzantine Empire. From this point onward, he claimed the title of Caesar in addition to his other titles.

Mehmed II was born in Edirne, then the capital city of the Ottoman state, on March 30, 1432. His father was Sultan Murad II (1421–51) and his mother Huma Hatun was a daughter of Abd'Allah of Hum, Huma meaning a girl/woman from Hum. When Mehmed II was 11 years old he was sent to Amasya to govern and thus gain experience, as per the custom of Ottoman rulers before his time. After Murad II made peace with the Karaman Emirate in Anatolia in August 1444, he resigned the throne to his 12-year-old son Mehmed II.
