The Ottoman Empire did what all empires have done or attempted to do. The Roman Empire, Hitlers Reich, Ghenghis Kahn and others conquered, slaughtered, and imposed their will because it kept their people in a position of strength, and gave them influence and wealth. The fact that the Ottomans were Muslim is irrelevant. Especially since other Muslims fought to overthrow them. Religion is a tool that is used by leaders to achieve a goal.
