The Rise of the Ottoman Empire's Clockwork Automatons in 16th Century Constantinople
Script
Did you know that in 16th Century Constantinople, the Ottoman Empire was obsessed with clockwork automatons? These intricate machines were made of copper and bronze, and could play music, pour coffee, and even serve food. But what's really wild is that the Ottomans believed these automatons had healing powers and would often bring them to the palace to try and cure sick royals. One legendary automaton was said to have been able to write poetry and even penned a few lines that were later found to be eerily prophetic. Who knew robots could be so...enlightened?
