Osman Nuri Pasha was born in 1832, Tokat, Ottoman Empire and he died on 5 April 1900, Constantinople, Ottoman Empire, known commonly as Şanı Büyük Gazi Osman Paşa (Glorious Warrior Osman Pasha), was an Ottoman field marshal. Numerous songs have been composed for him, and so many places have been named after him, as he was one of the most distinguished and decorated Ottoman pashas among all time. This is primarily because, during the Siege of Plevna in 1877, he decided to hold the city for five months against remarkable Russo-Romanian forces. For his bravery, he was given the title Gazi ("warrior" or "veteran"). Osman was granted the Title of the Medjidiye and the Imtiyaz Honors for his services to the Empire, throughout addition to his Adjutancy title. The Sultan appointed him Marshal of the Palace, and the Ottoman military anthem Plevna March, which is still used in Turkey today, was written in honour of his achievements in Plevna.
