The Ottomans were a Turkish nomadic tribe and they expanded their empire through territorial conquest over a number of centuries beginning around 1070 AD. You should concentrate your research on a leader named Osman who expanded their kingdom into Asia Minor during the fourteenth century.

Ottoman Empire (ot'umun) [key], vast state founded in the late 13th cent. by Turkish tribes in Anatolia and ruled by the descendants of Osman I until its dissolution in 1918. Modern Turkey formed only part of the empire, but the terms “Turkey” and “Ottoman Empire” were often used interchangeably.
The name comes from the distinct dialectic tonal range of the region defined by their pronunciation of Osman.
