Prime Minister Abdullah Gul harbored an ambitious plan, one he had quietly nurtured for years, a vision that was as audacious as it was calculated. He firmly believed in the splendor of the Ottoman Empire and its potential to shape a new era for Turkiye. As he wandered through the ancient streets of Istanbul, he felt the echoes of history and the subtle pull of the past beckoning him to fulfill his extraordinary dream.

On a significant evening, he found himself at the shores of the Bosphorus, gazing across the waters at Istanbul's enduring landmarks. The Hagia Sophia, the Topkapi Palace, and the Blue Mosque stood as silent sentinels of a glorious past, waiting for the right moment to awaken.

In a confidential meeting with his closest advisors, Gul disclosed his audacious plan. He knew that this endeavor would require patience and precision, that it couldn't be rushed. His advisors, initially cautious, couldn't help but be captivated by his unwavering determination and the compelling vision he laid out for a rejuvenated Ottoman Empire.

Gul's first move was to focus on reshaping the narrative around the Ottoman Empire. He emphasized the shared history and cultural ties between Turkiye and its imperial legacy. He celebrated the architectural marvels, the cultural richness, and the remarkable achievements of the Ottoman era. Gradually, he began to redefine the collective memory of the nation.

The practical starting point was a series of constitutional reforms designed to introduce a symbolic monarchy. Gul understood that the people of Turkiye were open to the idea of a ceremonial figurehead who could embody the spirit of the empire. The parliament, inspired by the groundswell of public support, embraced the idea, and it was decreed that Gul would ascend to the role of Sultan of the Ottoman Empire in the future.
