Storyline

You are Osman Pazvantoglu, a man who rebelled against Ottoman rule over Bulgarian lands in the late 1700s. Through great bloodshed, you established your own vast territories, independent from the Sultan. You reign supreme over these lands from your seat as “Governor” in the city of Vidin.
