Millets are a group of small-seeded grasses that are cultivated as staple food crops in various parts of the world, particularly in Asia and Africa. They are known for their resilience to drought and adverse growing conditions, making them an important food source in arid regions. Common types of millets include pearl millet, finger millet, and foxtail millet, which are rich in nutrients such as fiber, protein, and essential minerals. Millets are increasingly recognized for their health benefits and environmental sustainability in agricultural practices.

What were non-Muslim religious communities within the Ottoman Empire called?
Millets. Non-Muslims who lived in the Ottoman Empire were called Dhimmi, or second-class citizens. They lacked a number of fundamental rights such as freedom of movement, freedom of settlement, access to all occupations, and additional taxation because they were Non-Muslim. Each Dhimmi group, like the Armenians, Greeks, Jews, and so forth were organized into Millets which were community representative groups. Each Millet would report to a centralized Millet representative in Istanbul who would have direct dealing with the Imperial Palace. This would allow the Millets to air their grievances, but was more often used as a method to control the Millets and make them less resistive to Ottoman Occupation.

No Muslim was even allowed to join the Janissaries because the devşirme system was so effective in producing recruits loyal only to the Emperor because they feared him.
