The results of the latest poll are in, and the Ottoman Empire won! We saw a tight three-way race between the other candidates for second place, but it does seem fitting that the second part of our Justinian and Theodora series will be followed up by the next empire to rule Constantinople.

Many thanks to the patron who sent this suggestion in, and who will be featured on the sponsors list when this series comes out in January or February of 2016!

Sounds good, what years are you guys planning to cover for this series? I can't Imagine fitting the entire history of the Ottoman Empire from the Founding of the House of Osman to Defeat in WW1 in 7 episodes.

Seems pretty amazing that we've got topics up to the start of 2016 now. And how few topics that is even doing weekly episodes...

Speaking from a narrative viewpoint, the logical climax of the story would probably be the fall of Constantinople. They are not yet at their peak, but it firmly establishes them as players on the world stage. A hypothetical Part 2 could probably take you up to Vienna. I'm not sure whether a part 3 should cover the stagnating/decline period - but then I'm not an expert on Ottoman history - or maybe jump into WW1 and the birth of Turkey.

I know, right? We originally envisioned each series as four weeks plus Lies, but now that we've gotten deeper into it we find that too often, four weeks would cut the topics too short. We're cutting them pretty short already at six weeks, but still!

I joined as a patreon to vote on more topics about the middle east and found that this has already been chosen, which is my favorite part of history :). Looking forward to the series.

Well, I'm sorry you missed the vote, but glad you're happy with the results! In general, we hold votes at the end of every series, so keep an eye out for the next one at the end of Admiral Yi.
