One similarity between the Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire is that both 1 reached their height of power at the same time 2 developed parliamentary government 3 sensured equality for w?

This is completely incorrect. In fact, the Ottoman empire came to power as the last vestiges of the old Roman empire disintegrated. Neither ever had a parliamentary government. The Romans once had a republican form of government where their leaders were elected by the citizens. But this practice came to an end around 45 BC with the rise of Julius Caesar. The Ottoman Empire always had as its head of state an hereditary Sultan. However the Sultan usually designated a Grand Vizier as his head of government. The Vizier had what could be described as cabinet called the Porte that resembled the cabinet of a Parliamentary democracy. But the ministers were never chosen by an elected parliament. Equality is a concept born out of the European Enlightenment and American self-government and was not a concern of either the Roman or Ottoman empires.
