AHC: Ottoman Sea Sultans 1520-1899

[Commissar]

As the tin says and starting with good ole Suleiman the Magnificent, find a way that the Ottomans develop a large cutting edge Navy that dominates the Mediterranean and allows them control of all Islands and trade in it, the Black Sea, the Caspian Sea, Persian Gulf, Red Sea, Arabian Sea, and Indian Ocean in such a way that the Industrializing Western Nations cannot defeat it.

Didn't Bronze Age New World have this as a part of it?

Something like Pax Ottomania.. when they Conquer Egypt.. their new focus will be trade and make a proto Suez Channel to help their trade and fund their new big Navy

The Ottomans were the most capable, most in need, and most likely to benefit from a Suez canal. Shame they didn't make it a priority to build. Hindsight is 20-20.
