What? Sure, I have Janissaries, but if you look at the big picture I don't see that much resemblance to the Ottomans. Ottomans were somewhag secular and highly tolerant (at least compared to the Seljuk, Holy Roman Empire, etc.), not to mention rather technologically advanced.

I say that the Tinites are more like the Moors.
[/quote]Well, that might be more accurate to say, yeah.
As for Ottomans being advanced, they weren't so much by the early 20th century. Of course they were not on Tin's level and as you say their culture was nowhere as rigid or bound by traditions. So in retrospect my previous claim is void.
Anyways, I still can't see why's it a problem I used a mutation of a Muslim phrase for a fantasy nation whose culture and religion resembles the Mongols and the middle east.
It just fit so I added it to the end.
