The Revolt and Abdication of Achmet in Turku
Lasting revolts held Turku in turmoil as Ultan Achmee offered rewards to rebels to stay their hands while Ifpiri Zadé guided the conspiracy. The plot toppled Achmet, who abdicated on October 2 and watched his nephew placed on the throne by Prince Matmond. The new sultan Mahmoud ordered suppression of former duties and the castle’s power shifted as the old regime dissolved.
