A devout and pacifist sultan, he inherited a bankrupt empire and sought military reforms, including overhauling the Janissaries and navy. Despite internal efforts and quelling revolts in Syria, Egypt, and Greece, his reign saw the critical loss of Crimea and defeat by Russia and Austria. The 1774 Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca granted Russia territorial and religious influence. He died soon after the fall of Ochakov in 1788.","summary_more":[],"facts":[{"key":"born","label":"Born","values":[{"text":"20 March 1725","date":"1725-03-20"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170707#P569"}},{"key":"birthplace","label":"Place of birth","values":[{"text":"Topkapı Palace","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170495"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170707#P19"}},{"key":"died","label":"Died","values":[{"text":"7 April 1789","date":"1789-04-07"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170707#P570"}},{"key":"deathplace","label":"Place of death","values":[{"text":"Constantinople","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q16869"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170707#P20"}},{"key":"citizenship","label":"Citizenship","values":[{"text":"Ottoman Empire","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q12560"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170707#P27"}},{"key":"occupation","label":"Occupation","values":[{"text":"ruler","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1097498"},{"text":"caliph","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q65997"},{"text":"sultan","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q43292"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170707#P106"}},{"key":"positions","label":"Positions held","values":[{"text":"sultan of the Ottoman Empire (21 January 1774 – 7 April 1789)","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q15315411","start":"1774-01-21","end":"1789-04-07"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170707#P39"}}],"office":null,"sections":[],"cited":[],"cited_from":null,"videos":[],"last_reviewed":null,"organizations":[],"same_as":["https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdul_Hamid_I","https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170707"],"faq":[{"q":"When was Abdul Hamid I born?","a":"Abdul Hamid I was born on 20 March 1725 in Topkapı Palace."},{"q":"What positions has Abdul Hamid I held?","a":"Positions held by Abdul Hamid I include: sultan of the Ottoman Empire (1774–1789)."}],"related":[{"name":"Suleiman the Magnificent","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/suleiman-the-magnificent"},{"name":"Mehmed II","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/mehmed-ii"},{"name":"Bayezid I","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/bayezid-i"},{"name":"Murad II","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/murad-ii"},{"name":"Ahmed I","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/ahmed-i"},{"name":"Murad I","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/murad-i"}],"places_in":[],"nearby":[],"image":{"url":"https://diginpl.com/kb-img/abdul-hamid-i-37d2cc571c.jpg","width":500,"height":702,"license":"Public domain","credit":"Attribué à Ferdinando Tonioli","page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Portrait_of_Abd%C3%BClhamid_I_of_the_Ottoman_Empire.jpg"},"sources":[{"label":"Wikipedia (English): Abdul Hamid I","url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdul_Hamid_I","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/"},{"label":"Wikidata item Q170707","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170707","license":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"},{"label":"Image: Portrait of Abdülhamid I of the Ottoman Empire.jpg by Attribué à Ferdinando Tonioli (Public domain)","url":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Portrait_of_Abd%C3%BClhamid_I_of_the_Ottoman_Empire.jpg","license":null}],"license":{"text":"CC BY-SA 4.0","url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/","facts":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"},"attribution":"Text from the Wikipedia article Abdul Hamid I, licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0.
