At the helm of the rapidly expanding Ottoman Empire, Suleiman personally instituted major judicial changes relating to society, education, taxation, and criminal law. He was a distinguished poet and goldsmith; he also became a great patron of fine culture, overseeing the "Golden Age" of the Ottoman Empire in its artistic, literary, and architectural development. In 1533, Suleiman broke with Ottoman tradition by marrying Roxelana (Ukrainian: Роксолана), a woman from his Imperial Harem. Roxelana, so named in Western Europe for her red hair, was a Ruthenian who converted to Sunni Islam from Eastern Orthodox Christianity and thereafter became one of the most influential figures of the "Sultanate of Women" period in the Ottoman Empire. Reduced price from $59.
