A proposito di questo titolo

When the Turkish Grand National Assembly abolished the sultanate in 1922, the Ottoman Empire was already a ghost. But what about the caliphate? In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the strange, twilight reign of Abdülmecid II, the last caliph of Islam. From his coronation in a quiet Istanbul palace, his tenuous relationship with Mustafa Kemal, to his sudden expulsion on a cold March night in 1924, this is the story of a man who never asked for power but found himself the symbol of a lost empire. Along the way, we uncover the political maneuvers in Ankara that sealed his fate, the controversy over the caliphate's future, and the quiet life he built in exile. Featuring the Indian Khilafat Movement, the role of İsmet İnönü, and the final, poignant moment when Abdülmecid was given thirty-six hours to leave Turkey forever.
