Hello once again Mehcon Nation! πβ€οΈ This time I present to you ANOTHER Mehmed x Constantine log -- but do not worry, this is the last one. One final hurrah for our Sultan and Emperor, and thank you for your support!
This log not only contains the Fate versions, but also includes my own interpretations/headcanons of Meh and Cons. So my apologies for them not looking like what we're used to, in some pictures.

Fun facts/Context (because i need to share these, language barrier be damned)!
1. Kayser-i Rum - Mehmed claimed to be the "Caesar of Rome" after conquering Constantinople. He wanted to continue the legacy of the Romans, and proclaimed the Ottoman Empire as the heir of Rome.
2. Right of Conquest - "A state that emerges victorious in war is entitled to claim sovereignty over conquered territory in virtue of military victory or conquest." Meh also claimed to be the heir of Rome through this,
3. Meh's "relation" to the Komnenos family - The Komnenoi family ruled over the Byzantine Empire in 81 to about 1185 AD. Mehmed, in order to reinforce his claim as Kayser-i Rum, also claimed that he was descended from this family (through his mother). But actually it is most likely that he is NOT related to the Komnenoi, as his mom was a slave.
4. "Constantinople, either I take you or you take me." - Meh said this during his siege.
