A major export coming from the Ottoman Empire was cotton. 
-Though International trade was prevalent in the Ottoman Empire, domestic trade was much more common. This was the case because the Ottomans viewed other nations as threats to their safety.

Late 18th Century
-The global demand for textiles and leather increased, so the Ottoman Empire took advantage of the resources the had to be able to produce fine textiles and leather. This brought wealth to the Ottomans because they were able to sell their textiles and leather.
19th Century
