I don't get it.

Why?

That is what Russia did for the 17th century, but Peter the Great shook things up a bunch. So... I don't get it either

I'm currently playing Ottomans as well and iirc you can only build the admirality line of buildings in Constantinople. Second slot from the right I think.

You can usually build admiralty in your main starting city, which i guess for the Ottomans would be Istanbul, i dunno, have not played as them yet.

You can usually research the first 4 navy things right from the start of the campaign... maybe it's one of those that unlocks admiralty.

hmm well i checks yesterday but will check again tonight if i can build it in Istanbul. however i dont even have the basic bulding yet so i cant research any of the neavy techs

I think it might be called something other than "Admirality" or whatever the western name for it is, maybe that made you overlook it at a quick glance.
