Topic: Mamluk Rule Posted: 19-Jul-2006 at 05:28 |
The Mamluke Turks have been living in Arabia before Turks were living in Turkey. There must be some left? my Algerian friend said there are still old Turkish families from the Ottomn times in the country?

Memluks as Empire or Caliphate was centered in Egypt.
the Ottoman ended the memluks as rulers but they did not kill all of them, the memluks royals were put as governors or people in high position in Ottoman Egypt.
Mohammed Ali was not a Memluk he was born in Albania, after Napoleon was defeated in Egypt by the British the Ottoman sent Mohammed or Mehmet Ali to fill the position of Ottoman Governor of Egypt.
--------
also there were different Memluks here and there through islamic history, the most significant ones are the ones who had an empire in Egypt.

Just a small correction, Mehmet Ali, or Muhammed Ali was indeed an albanian, but he was born in Kavala, an Ottoman city which now is in Greek territory.
