[edit] kids these days
Could someone find the real (and not anecdotical!) number of this Sultan's children? 582 male-only children is somewhat exaggerating... --Kensai 14:55, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
- There is no evidence to support anything but two sons and five daughters. I've removed the obvious hoax. —Cuiviénen 20:40, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WHO STARTED THE WAR?
Mustafa III was NEVER FORCED to declare the war, he just did what the French ambassador told him to do. François de Tott, (from WIKIPEDIA) he was appointed consul in Crimea in order to investigate about the country and to provoke the Crimean Tatars against the Imperial Russia. Catherine II at this period had a poor country and absolutelly disorganized army. Russia did not want any war at this time. Mustafa III served the French interests in this war. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.226.233.172 (talk) 21:10, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
