My thoughts on the Ottomans are the same as that of Atatürk when he stepped up at the parliament to resolve the fervent hassle over the abolishment of the Ottoman regime.
„Sovereignty and kingship are never decided by academic debate. They are seized by force. The Ottoman dynasty appropriated by force the government of the Turks, and reigned over them for six centuries. Now the Turkish nation has effectively gained possession of its sovereignty… This is an accomplished fact… If those assembled here … see the matter in its natural light, we shall all agree. Otherwise, facts will still prevail, but some heads may roll.“

The only notable thing they evolved was medicine, early on canons and guns but they were later overshadowed by European Empires. They stagnated far behind European technology and philosophy when they couldn't learn from an naval ER Empire using Greek fire and soon they became a secondary naval power.
