Information about Suleiman Ii
| Suleiman II Ottoman Period | ||
|---|---|---|
| Preceded by Mehmed IV | Ottoman Sultan 1687–91 | Succeeded by Ahmed II |
When he was approached to accept the throne after his brother's deposition in 1687, Suleiman II assumed that the delegation had come to kill him and it was only with the greatest persuasion that he could be tempted out of the palace to be ceremonially girded with the sword of the Caliphs.
Hardly able to take control of events himself, Suleiman II nevertheless made a shrewd choice by appointing Ahmed Faizil Köprülü as his Grand Vizier. Under Köprülü's leadership the Turks halted an Austrian advance into Serbia and crushed an uprising in Bulgaria. During a campaign to retake eastern Hungary, Köprülü was defeated and killed by Imperial troops led by Louis William of Baden at Szlankamen in 1690. Suleiman II himself died a year later.
