The Correspondence of Sultans, also known by the romanized Ottoman Turkish title Münşeʾātü ’s-Selāṭīn, is the title of a 16th century manuscript written by the Ottoman historian Feridun Bey. It is a collection of exchanges between heads of state. The text begins with Muhammad's letter to Heraclitus and ends in the reign of Murad III. For its extensive preservation of early Ottoman era correspondences, it is considered one of the most important primary sources related to the history of the Ottoman Empire.[1]
