Sinopsis:
Sultan Alparslan's greatest ambition was to unite Muslim communities under the Seljuk flag. To achieve this, he continued the Anatolian campaigns initiated during the reign of his uncle, Tugrul Beg. Meanwhile, internal turmoil within the Byzantine Empire accelerated the Turks' advance into Asia Minor. Diogenes, who ascended to the throne through an unexpected move by Queen Eudokia, was planning to expel the Turks from the region. The two armies clashed on the Malazgirt Plain, marking the beginning of the Turks' thousand-year adventure in Asia Minor.
