		Murad IV (Arabic: مراد الرابع) (June 16, 1612 – February 9, 1640) was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1623 to 1640, known both for restoring the authority of the state and for the brutality of his methods.

		Murad IV died aged 27 from cirrhosis of the liver in 1640.

	Murad III - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Murad III (Arabic: مراد الثالث) (July 4, 1546 – January 15, 1595) was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1574 until his death.
		Murad III was the eldest son of sultan Selim II (1566–74) and valide sultan Nur-Banu (née Cecilia Venier-Baffo) and succeeded his father in 1574.
		The reign of Murad III was marked by wars with Iran and Austria and Ottoman economic decline and institutional decay.

	Mehmed IV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mehmed IV (also known as Dördüncü, "fourth", and Avcı, "hunter") (January 2, 1642–1693) or Mohammed IV (Arabic: محمد الرابع) was the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1648 to 1687.
		Kara Mustafa was strangled in Belgrade on Mehmed IV's orders and his head was placed on a column just outside the former palace in Edirne, but it was not enough to save the throne for the Sultan who was deposed (1687) and imprisoned at Edirne near his favourite hunting grounds.
		Mehmed IV's reign is notable in that it formally ended the era of Ottoman sultans as true rulers of the empire; in 1656 he signed away his executive powers to Mehmed Köprülü, thus ushering in the era of Grand Viziers as the real power behind the throne in Istanbul.

		Murad accessed the throne at the age of 11, and was in the early years of his reign dominated by his mother, grand viziers, the Janissaries and the sipahiyin.
