Bruza, an Ancient Turkish City

Bruza, a city in Asia Minor, was once an important Greek city. It was captured by Othman in 1326. In that city he directed he should be buried, and advised his son Orchan to make that city his seat of empire. Othman's remains were deposited in a stately mausoleum, which was destroyed in this present age. Bruza (Brusa, Broussa, Brussa, Brouza — it is spelled various ways) is still an important town with the Turk.
