Osman Gazi, who was a tribal man in the place of his father in 1281, according to one view, Seljuk Sultan II. Gıyâseddin Mesud's edict that Söğüd and his surroundings were allocated to him in 1284, and the ak sancak, tuğ, and mehterhane and end men he gifted with him. The conquest of Karacahisar in 1288 or 1291 and his teaching of sermons to Dursun Fakih on his behalf means that Osman Gazi gained his semi-independence.
It is a response to Byzantine raids. Osman Gazi conquered Yarhisar and Bilecik in 1299 and transferred his principality center to Bilecik. This date was accepted as the foundation year of the Ottoman Empire for the reasons explained earlier.

Indeed our region and will provide significant value to Turkey bridge. I wanted to make a note of the history by following all the stages step by step, recording both the pen and the camera, from the day the bridge was planned to be opened. Although the official name of the bridge is Osman Gazi, we prefer to call Dilovası Osmangazi Bridge. I want all Kocaels to pronounce the name of the bridge as Dilovasi Osman Gazi Bridge.
