Ahmed I ( ota, احمد اول '; tr, I. Ahmed; 18 April 1590 – 22 November 1617) was Sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1603 until his death in 1617.

He was born in Constantinople, the son of Sultan Ahmed I by Kösem Sultan, an ethnic Greek originally named Anastasia.

Sanjak Of Selanik
The Sanjak of Salonica or Selanik (Ottoman Turkish: ; el, λιβάς/σαντζάκι Θεσσαλονίκης) was a second-level Ottoman province (''sanjak'' or '' liva'') encompassing the environs of the city of Thessalonica (Salonica, Turkish ''Selanik'') and the Chalcidice peninsula. History After its final conquest from the Republic of Venice, Thessalonica became a ''sanjak'' centre within the Rumeli Eyalet, encompassing central Macedonia between the Vardar and Aliakmon rivers, as well as the Chalcidice peninsula. By 1846, as part of the ''Tanzimat'' reforms, Thessalonica became the centre of a separate ''eyalet'' (Salonica Eyalet, after 1867 Salonica Vilayet), and hence the ''sanjak'' became the new province's ''pasha-sanjak''. In 1912, the ''sanjak'' comprised the following districts (''kazas''): Selanik proper, Kesendire (Kassandra Peninsula), Karaferye (Veroia), Yenice Vardar (Giannitsa), Vodina (Edessa), Langaza (Langadas), Gevgelü (Gevgelija), Avret Hişar (Neo ...
