His entry marks a major turning point in the show’s storyline, promising new political storms, intense confrontations, and a fierce test for Orhan Bey and his soldiers.

Who Is Temurtaş Bey in Kuruluş Orhan?
Historically known as a powerful Ilkhanid governor in Anatolia, Temurtaş Bey—often remembered as the Iron Fist of the Ilkhanate—arrives in Söğüt with a mission:
To re-establish Ilkhanid authority, suppress rising Turkish Beyliks, and specifically challenge the growing Ottoman power under Orhan Bey.

- Personality: Calculating, strategic, ruthless
- Mission: Break rising beyliks and subdue Kayı tribe loyalty
- Enemy: Orhan Bey and the Ottoman dream
Temurtaş Bey sees the Ottoman Beylik not just as a local power — but as a direct threat to Ilkhanid sovereignty.

✅ Weakening unity among beyliks
✅ Political manipulation

His ability to perform layered antagonists makes him a perfect fit to bring Temurtaş Bey to life.
A Strategic Threat for Orhan Bey
Orhan Bey, portrayed by Mert Yazıcıoğlu, now faces a new and sophisticated enemy. Unlike previous foes driven purely by force, Temurtaş uses:
- Political intelligence
- Psychological intimidation
- Ruthless decision-making
- Strategic alliances
With the Ilkhanid Empire still holding formal authority over Anatolia during this period, this conflict is not just war —
It is a battle between a fading empire and a rising future sultanate.
This historical reality sets the stage for some of the most intense story arcs in the series.
