Transcription
Accession
He ascended to throne upon the death of his father Mehmed of Germiyan.
Reign
To the south of Germiyan territory, two other beyliks were fighting and Süleyman supported İlyas, a bey of Hamidoğlu, against the powerful Alaattin Ali of Karaman Beylik. Although İlyas was able to regain his former possessions from the Karaman beylik, this support caused hostility between the Germiyan and Karaman beyliks. Süleyman asked for Ottoman support against Karaman threat and consequently his daughter Devletşah Hatun married to Ottoman şehzade (prince) Bayezid (later Bayezid I) in 1378. But this support was a very costly one, because Ottomans acquired the most prosperous part of the Germiyan beylik as a dowry. Even Germiyan capital Kütahya was a part of the dowry.
Death and aftermath
Süleyman had to recede to Kula and died in 1388.[1] He was laid to rest in a tomb named Süleyman Bey türbesi in Kula [2] He was succeeded by Yakup II of Germiyan.
