The answer is "1 Poorly trained officials and Sultans less involved with the people."

The decline of the Ottoman Empire started when Sultans were no longer ruling, but just living lavishly and ignoring their duties. The Sultans would pass on their obligations to the general, which started a corrupt chain where officials just wanted power, with no real ability to rule.
