We do not know anything about the harem of the two princes as neither of them had a major consort and as their children were born from different women. Like the eunuchs and kalfas, the concubines of Prince Mustafa and Prince Bayezid, Ayşe, Rana, Defne or Rumeysa Hatun, can also be considered forgivable fictional characters. None of them were historical, but surely every sultana had their own trusted servants, as they showed in the series. The characters of Nigar Kalfa, Gülsah Hatun, Fidan Hatun, Daye Hatun, Fahriye Kalfa were similar to Sümbül. Of Hürrem’s close servants, only one is known by name, a woman named Nevbahar. During Suleiman’s reign, many chief eunuchs took turns, and none of them were known to be particularly close to Hürrem. Sümbül’s character was the most important among the eunuchs and perhaps this is why many of us may think that Hürrem actually had such a close friend in the person of the chief eunuch. Thus, for example, the characters of Sümbül Agha, Gül Agha, Mercan Agha, and other eunuchs, although not portraying historical characters, were necessary for the dramaturgy of the series. The presence of some fictional characters was forgivable, as we were left with very little detailed information about the harem of Sultan Suleiman I. Several fictional characters were present in the Muhteşem Yüzyil series, many from the very first minutes. Now, for Christmas, I would like to summarize for you the main fictional characters of the Muhteşem Yüzyil series. One of my most popular videos on Youtube was the one, where I gathered non-historical characters, explaining how fictional or how historical they were, and if there was a real historical person behind them as an inspirer.
