What does busbecq see as the main difference between ottoman and european attitudes toward social privilege and inherited status? how, in his view, do these attitudes affect ottoman government?
Busbecq see that the European societies tend to favour inherited status (the children automatically held a social status like their parents) while the Turkish tend to create their social status based on merits. He believed this attitude help the Turkish government to run their empire more fairly and improve their economy at the same time.
