Explanation:

The Ottomans managed to create an empire at the most important strategic location when it came to trade. The empire was located right in the area where most of the trade between Europe and Asia was going on. Knowing how much this was important for both sides, especially for the Europeans, the Ottomans decided to use the opportunity and became very wealthy, and they did that by imposing higher taxes for all trade going through their territory.
