Janissary Commander, Ottoman Army,1685

A commander (Aga) of the Janissaries leads his warriors into battle. The Ottomans were one of the first states to maintain a standing army in Europe since the Roman Empire. The force originated in the 14th century; it was abolished by Sultan Mahmud II in 1826. The Janissaries were elite infantry units that formed the Sultan's household troops and bodyguards. They began as an elite corps of slaves recruited from Christian boys, and became famed for their cohesion, strict discipline and order. They were taught to consider the corps as their home and family, and the Sultan as their father. No artist credited, cropped and cleaned, 1685.
