Sultan Selim I

Yavuz Sultân Selim Khan (Ottoman Turkish: یاوز سلطان سلیم خان), entitled Hâdim-ül Haramain-ish Sharifain (خادم الحرمین الشریفین), also known as Selim I (سلیم اول) (October 10, 1465/1466/1470 – September 22, 1520) was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1512 until his death.

Selim I was the son of Bayezid II and the brother of Şehzade Ahmet. When Bayezid favored Ahmet as his successor, a war began between Selim and Ahmet over whom would take the throne. Selim stood victorious and became Sultan in 1512. His son, Suleiman I, succeeded him.
