No power without soldiers,
These golden words transformed a small Anatolian kingdom into the Ottoman Empire which lasted over 700 years. It was a philosophy of government which was known as the Circle of Justice. It had no beginning and no end. Each Ottoman sultan knew that his success depended on the mutual relationship between politics, military, and justice for the people which ultimately led to the empire’s prosperity. This concept inspired contemporary political ruling parties of the Islamic world — the AK Party (Justice and Development Party) in Turkey, Parti Keadilan Rakyat (People’s Justice Party) in Malaysia, and the PTI in Pakistan.
