Ertugrul’s background

Ertugrul Ghazi is a historical figure dating back to the 13th century, who belonged to the ‘Kayi tribe’ and fought for his religion, conquering many lands in the way of Allah. He was the son of Suleyman Shah of Oghuz descent. Ertugrul’s son, Osman, succeeded the throne and founded the Ottoman Empire around 1299. The term “Ottoman” is derived from Osman’s name, which was “Uthman” in Arabic. At its height the empire encompassed most of south-eastern Europe to the gates of Vienna, including present-day Hungary, the Balkan region, Greece, and parts of Ukraine; portions of the Middle East now occupied by Iraq, Syria, Israel, and Egypt; North Africa as far west as Algeria; and large parts of the Arabian Peninsula.

Ertugrul Ghazi was a warrior whose strength, belief, loyalty and strong spiritual belief always helped him move forward with one aim: to defeat the enemies and establish peace and brotherhood all over, by inculcating belief in law and justice.


The series, ‘Resurrection: Ertugrul,’ starts with a melodious title song accompanied with rubab and violin that has become very popular and is on repeat on many people’s playlist. What actually has appealed to people is the historical setting and the mesmerizing portrayal of all the sterling qualities of Ertugrul, along with his love story with Halime Sultan, the niece of Sultan Alauddin (Sultan of Konya). The unconditional love and loyalty between the two, and the respect they have for each other has captivated the viewers’ attention to the extent that fans are now idealizing the characters. A couple of other things that have impacted the viewers are Ertugrul’s bond with his Alp friends - Dogan, Bamsi and Turgut, and his spiritual bonding with Sheikh ul Arabi (a spiritual figure in the drama).


The show’s ratings clearly prove that the Turkish drama industry has become very popular. Most of the Turkish dramas are well-crafted with strong stories, but none of the other Turkish dramas can compete with the success of ‘Resurrection: Ertugrul’.

The question that comes to mind is, what has made this show so special? Well, the war scenes for one, were truly amazing, as they depict the love for fighting in the way of Allah. Despite all odds, our beloved characters don’t give up, and are not afraid to die.

When asked in an interview on BBC what he likes most about his character as Ertugrul, Engin Altan Duzyatan (aka Ertugrul) pointed out the strong qualities of the character like his vision, strength, purpose in life, and values that Ertugrul gave importance to. This is what made the character stand out.
