Ottoman History never gets old.

The most painful stories I heard about is during Timur's reign; when when Caliph Bayezid of Ottoman Empire was defeated, Timur held a feast, and forced Bayezid's wife Despina to serve the guests completely naked. Bayezid at the time was considered the most powerful and feared by neighboring European states what with his repeated conquests of Balkan States. This was too much for the Ottoman emperor. He shortly suffered a stroke, and died.
Old thread but revived by someone else and I saw this post.

Absolute rubbish... Please state source or where you read this.

Bayezid was captive but Timur did not treat him bad. Even his son was held captive and Timur did not kill him. It's a very long story but it lead to nearly ten years of internal struggle between brothers in Ottomans which could have destroyed it.
