When [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze\|Ezio]] met Suleiman, he was still a young man with only the faintest hope of ever becoming Sultan, since his father [[Selim I\|Selim]] was dead last in the [[Ottomans\|Ottoman]] hierarchy. So, as befitting a young man of his status and stature, Suleiman threw himself into study with little thought of ever becoming Sultan himself. He was educated at the University in [[Constantinople\|Istanbul]] and received private tutoring in [[Topkapı Palace]]. Little else is known about his early years, except that he was a kind and thoughtful man and that he had a servant named Ibrahim whom he considered his best friend.

	Everyone in the world knew this guy's name in the sixteenth century. [[Suleiman the Magnificent]], they called him in the West, the tenth Sultan of Osman's ever-expanding Empire. His fellow Turks were also generous with their praise, though far more practical, calling him Suleiman "Kanuni", or "The Law Giver" - the man responsible for improving the Empire's bureaucratic engine, making it run like a well-oiled engine. No small feat for an Empire as large as his.		Everyone in the world knew this guy's name in the sixteenth century.

	But I'm getting ahead of myself, ahead of our present concerns. When [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze\|Ezio]] met Suleiman, he was still a young man with only the faintest hope of ever becoming Sultan, since his father [[Selim I\|Selim]] was dead last in the [[Ottomans\|Ottoman]] hierarchy. So, as befitting a young man of his status and stature, Suleiman threw himself into study with little thought of ever becoming Sultan himself. He was educated at the University in [[Constantinople\|Istanbul]] and received private tutoring in [[Topkapı Palace]]. Little else is known about his early years, except that he was a kind and thoughtful man and that he had a servant named Ibrahim whom he considered his best friend.
