Osman VI

Osman VI is the reigning Bey of Selizuyukstan, having seized control of the volatile state at the age of 15.
Osman inherited the throne at the age of 5, when his uncle, Selman, murdered his grandfather, Osman V in an attempt to seize power at the end of the Imperial Civil War. Selman failed to gain support of the military or the Ayatollah, leading to a Regency being declared under command of first Osman's father, the then leader of the Templari'i Republic Kaius Hellerian, and then by the Ayatollah after Osman and his mother fled the country in 254 during a new Varrenian war.
Osman hid in Cordolva for several years until the outbreak of the Hybro-Cordolvan War. His mother was killed in the Invasion of Irchvan, and he fled back to Selizuyukstan shortly after.
Widespread violence perpetrated by the Sons of the Sasamayed Horde plagued Selizuykstan from 253-262, when the Ayatollah was shot. A brief power vaccum was filled when the military supported Osman in seizing control of the country in 263, at 15. His reign has brought much needed stability to the country.
In 270, the Bey agreed to assist the Imperial Commonwealth with their invasion of the Empire of Cordolva. The Kingdom of Varreny agreed to support the Cordolvans, but found their efforts thrawrted by a massive network of border forts and defenses that began construction under the Ayatollah, before being completed and armed by the Bey. The Selizuyuk army had modernized greatly in the last decade while the Varrenians had fallen grossly behind, and the Selizuyuks coordinated with the Templari'i Republic on an invasion of the region. By the end of the war, the country was split with a Templari'i Occupied northern zone in a state of civil war like a decade earlier, and a Selizuyuk held southern zone centered out of Dubrecen, where Osman was declared and crowned Shah.
