谁和穆罕默德三世 (奥斯曼帝国)约会过？

穆罕默德三世（鄂圖曼土耳其語：محمد ثالث，土耳其語：III. Mehmed，1566年5月26日—1603年12月22日），是奥斯曼帝国蘇丹，1595年至1603年在位。

穆罕默德登位時將十六個弟弟處以絞刑，所以他在奥斯曼帝国的歷史上至今仍然惡名昭彰。他是一個懶散的蘇丹，把政府交給母親皇太后莎菲耶蘇丹管理。他任內最重大的事件是在1596年至1605年在匈牙利發生的鄂圖曼-哈布斯堡戰爭。

從本朝起，年輕的皇子不再被授予任何公職，皇子擔任各省總督的政治實習制度被廢止，皇子被圈養在後宮，成為各政治派系的棋子，由權臣決定朝政的時代開始。

穆罕默德的軍隊在1596年佔領了匈牙利境內的埃格爾，並在Mezokeresztes戰役中打敗哈布斯堡王朝和川西凡尼亞的軍隊，但穆罕默德本人在戰役中途卻曾打算逃離戰場，不過被勸阻。

在穆罕默德三世的統治時期，雖然奥斯曼帝国看來正在衰落中，卻未有重大挫折。

Handan Sultan (Ottoman Turkish: خندان سلطان; c. 1570 – 9 November 1605) was a consort of Ottoman Sultan Mehmed III, and mother and Valide Sultan to their son Sultan Ahmed I. She was de facto regent for her son, a politically influential woman during her tenure from 1603 to 1605 for her son. Handan Sultan was one of the prominent figures during the era known as the Sultanate of Women and lived during the reign of three ottoman Sultans: Murad III, Mehmed III and Ahmed I.

After entering the Ottoman Imperial Harem—probably in 1583—she became one of the two known consorts of then-Prince Mehmed; she succeeded in making her third son, Ahmed, the heir to the throne, after her husband's accession as Sultan Mehmed III in 1595, through alliances with her mother-in-law Safiye Sultan. Initially overshadowed by her mother-in-law and kept away from politics, she acquired power and influence after her consort's death in 1603, becoming the Valide Sultan under her son, now Sultan Ahmed I.

As mother of the new Sultan, she firstly banished Safiye and all her allies, then acted as the first recognized de facto Regent of the Ottoman Empire, taking active positions in politics, affairs of state, power and influence. One of her merits would have been the abolition of the law of fratricide during her son's reign, and having created an effective and capable government apparatus. She died in 1605, having served as the Valide Sultan only for two years: her cause of death is still debated.

Halime Sultan (Ottoman Turkish: حلیمه سلطان; c. 1570 – after 1623) was a consort of Sultan Mehmed III, and the mother of Sultan Mustafa I. The first woman to be Valide Sultan twice and the only to be Valide twice of a same son. She was a de facto co ruler of Ottoman Empire as Valide Sultan from 1617 to 1618 and again from 1622 to 1623, as her son was mentally unstable. Halime was also one of the prominent figures during the era known as the Sultanate of Women.

Halime lived in the Ottoman Empire as a courtier during the reign of seven Sultans: Murad III, Mehmed III, Ahmed I, Mustafa I, Osman II, Murad IV.
