It's called Game of Thrones.I’d like to see somebody do something with Maurice Druon’s Accursed Kings novels. Sex and violence and dynastic plots against the backdrop of France on the eve of the Hundred Years War.
Oh man! What a wonderful idea!The German Empire during WW1
I've always wanted a Justinian II serie.The nation from whom the word “byzantine” derives is definitely the best option here—their long, long history of intrigue and cutthroat politics is fascinating and IMO pretty gripping at times.
A TV show about Byzantium is long overdue.
Second place would probably go to the merchant republics, yeah, or even possibly a Muslim state.
There was a serie of movies on this, "Les Rois Maudits" I believeI’d like to see somebody do something with Maurice Druon’s Accursed Kings novels. Sex and violence and dynastic plots against the backdrop of France on the eve of the Hundred Years War.

The Ottoman Empire, with its harem politics, has been a good setting for political soap operas. Have you lot seen Muhteşem Yüzyıl? It's a bit like House of Cards, except they play up the romantic side of political intrigue. I haven't seen the sequel series, Muhteşem Yüzyıl: Kösem, but I think Kösem Sultan would make a pretty good Francis Urquehart.
I have. What a great series! Its called "Magnificent Century" on Netflix. One can certainly enjoy watching Meryem Uzerli for many hours. I mean, she is rather pleasing to the eyes.
I can't believe Mahidevran was able to get away with all the things she did out of jealousy to Hurrem. And the dastardly king of Hungary... What a wicked character! I'm just waiting to the moment when he will get his comeuppance... man I need to continue watching that series
The Gracci-brothers reforms.As it says in the title.
