Mehmed I (1379–1421 CE) — the youngest of Bayezid's sons, who fell back on Amasya after Ankara and beat his brothers one by one to reign sole from 1413; 'the second founder' who spent his eight years reunifying the state, personally broke Sheikh Badr al-Din's rising, moved the capital from 'warriors' Edirne' to 'jurists' Bursa', and first sent the annual surra gift to the Amir of Mecca. He died at Edirne in 824/1421 aged forty-three, his viziers concealing the death forty-one days until Murad II arrived.
