Başıl Karamanoğlu Karamanoğullari Bey Tenure: 1743 (63) - ? Predecessor: Title Created House: Karamanoğlu Faith: Kashgarism Father: Timur Karamanoğlu Mother: Kübra Aydin Archduke of Lorraine Reign: 1521-1547 Predecessor: Francis II (As Duke of Adria) Successor: Lothar Başıl Karamanoğlu, stylized in the Orenian common tongue as Bashil of Karaman, is the first Karamanoğullari Bey and the eldest son of Timur Karamanoğlu. He was born in the Türkin Steppes in the outskirts of the Korvassa Desert. At the time of his birth, the Karamanoğullari didn't maintain a calendar as a society: resulting into his date of birth being uknown. As Bey, he is automatically considered the patriarch of House Karamanoğlu. He rose to prominence due to his rescue of Joseph Clement de Sarkozic, the Duke of Adria, during an ambush by pirates in the Kingdom of Curon[1]. He became known as an avid female connoisseur later, reportedly asking Orenian prominents such as Boudewijn Haas, Cyrus Basrid and Joseph Clement de Sarkozic to find him a wife in multiple letters and conversations. Employment as Inspector-General of Oren Joachim Boussy Haas, the Vice-Chancellor of the Empire anno 1746, had found the Karamanoğullari intriguing. Their methodology behind selecting the proper candidates for their many internal positions in their society, as much as Başıl's personal cosmopolitan connections spanning through the Empire, had caused the Vice-Chancellor to gain interesting in recruiting the young Karamanoğlu for the position of Inspector-General: hoping to apply his foreign wisdom to the oily machinations of the Orenian bureaucracy. On the 17th of Alev Yenilgisi, 66 (or 17th of Amber's Cold, 1746): Joachim had officially appointed Başıl Karamanoğlu as the Inspector-General of the Empire.
