Ibrahim the Mad vs Sayri Tupac

Ibrahim I engaged in lavish spending, including building palaces, importing exotic animals, and demanding furs and jewels. This drained the treasury and led to inflation, contributing to the economic crisis that fueled his deposition.

Ibrahim I launched an invasion of Crete, then a Venetian possession. The Ottoman fleet captured Chania and other cities, beginning the Cretan War (1645-1669). This war drained Ottoman resources and lasted long after Ibrahim's death.

Ibrahim I was deposed by a Janissary revolt led by grand vizier Sofu Mehmed Pasha. He was strangled shortly after. His erratic behavior, including executing officials and excessive spending, had alienated the court and military.

Sayri Tupac succeeded his father Manco Inca as the ruler of the Neo-Inca state in Vilcabamba. He inherited a small, isolated kingdom that continued resistance against Spanish rule in the Andes.

Sayri Tupac was baptized as a Christian in Lima, taking the name Diego. He formally accepted Spanish sovereignty and was granted the title of Prince of Yucay, along with encomiendas, ending the Vilcabamba resistance temporarily.

Sayri Tupac died suddenly in Yucay, possibly poisoned by Spanish officials or by his own relatives. His death led to the succession of his brother Titu Cusi Yupanqui, who resumed resistance against Spanish rule.
