What happens
Murad III, a Sultan ruled by women, fought the Persians in an exhausting war (1578-90) that severely strained the Empire and forced heavy taxes upon the citizens. Though the war was not for nothing - Persia had to cede Azerbaijan, Tiflis and Hamadan to the Ottomans - the resources might have been better spent elsewhere.
