While civil war was exhausting Byzantium, the Turks conducted frequent [naval] incursions from Asia "with the help of monemes and triremes [galley ships having, respectively, one and three banks of oars], making their way with impunity into Thrace, especially during harvest season, seizing livestock, carrying off women and children into slavery, and causing such evils that these regions afterward remained depopulated and uncultivated. That was one of the reasons for the famine that the Byzantines had to endure.”100

Amazing documentary! Love the detailed map view of all the small towns, a really detailed view of the micro battles (Number of soldiers etc.) and territories and in depth of what happened! The Ottoman Empire was a small empire territorial wise in the beginning stages, but so much is happening within its borders, its mind blowing. Love it! Great series!

That is why I think that Ataturk came to the right place at the right moment... Because, it was not only Balkan states, Turkey was losing territory, and great powers were really eager to grab and destroy that state. But Ataturk was agnostic, saw the danger of religion, was a very good military leader, and managed to save Turkey, he made the modern Turkish republic, secular, and with proper reforms... The only black spot, and it is really black was the Armenian genocide... But the result on the Balkan peninsula was such because there were too few Muslims and way too small number of soldiers, while all 4 countries (4 if we count Montenegro) had support... The black spot of that war? 3 bigger states, Serbia, Bulgaria, and Greece occupied Macedonia and never let that nation have any chance to make its own state.

No doubt he would ascend the throne as he had control of the entire Military, but would his brothers still rebel against him like they did Murad, or would they submit willingly? If so, the original fratricide would've been avoided, removing the precedent entirely from the Empire.

Even without Süleyman Paşa, Murad I and his descendants did an excellent job at expanding the Empire, even conquering Constantinople (although Bayezid I got a bit too arrogant which cost the Empire half a century). Cem Sultan, although he would've been a great Warrior-Sultan, would've completely drained the Ottoman Economy as his father had done, with his brother Bayezid II being the better option as he consolidated power throughout the Ottoman territories (but yet again, the end of his reign was weakness due to his inability or rather indifference to the Safavid threat that would've conquered East Anatolia). Had Osman II been more patient, he could've fixed the Empire back into its prime self and have a better warrior reputation than his brother Murad IV, or his project could've failed drastically as it did irl. That leaves Şehzade Mustafa, who would've ascended the throne during literal peak years of the Empire where the Army was (arguably) the best in the world and actually willing to go on campaigns. Mustafa's popularity, skills, and ambition were enough to encourage his Army to fight with all their might, frighten all of Europe, and find a path to somehow conquer Rome as his ancestor Mehmed II desired.

Even from the initial Ottoman conquests when they had nearly no territory compared to the Byzantines, they still had a larger force in almost every engagement shown here. Were the bulk of the Byzantine forces busy in the Balkans, or just that drained by civil war and the decentralization of imperial authority?

Osman I was one of the best leader can give them land, wealth and security. Most of the Turks were joining his cause from Anatolia especially warriors. This is one of the reasons how they can have big forces during the early stages of the empire.

What a Leader!! Can You Imagine Osman The Kayi Leader of More than 40 years left just a sword, couple of Oxen,sheep and A horse. And Nowadays we have Muslim Leaders who Can not be ever satisfied on Worldy Materials. How the world Changed.

No pacific war continuation this Sunday ? 😭😭😭😭😭

What are the sources that have been used in making this series?

It’s good that the brothers managed to compromise and work together to benefit their state. I’m sure this will set a precedent for future centuries that their successors will definitely hold up and respect.

SALAHUDDIN AYUBI. It would be nice to have a video dedicated to Salahuddin. As it is said to have been a very just and fair ruler, as well as Osman. I have watched almost ALL of your videos on Early Muslim Expansion, and concurrently the ones about the crusades, but in my reckoning I couldn't find one about Salahuddin. Thank you!!

He wasn't that fair ruler with coptic Christians....

Great work once again yet the majority of the cities presented in the map have their Turkish names even though they are still under Roman control, for reasons of historical accuracy you should change the names of the cities to their roman names so that they resemble the situation of that time period, just before the Ottoman conquest and not today's names. For example in 16:51 there is a city still under Roman control called Tekirdağ the correct name for that period would be to be called Bisanthe or Bysanthe (Greek: Βισανθη/Βυσάνθη) and or Rhaedestus (Ῥαιδεστός) and it was renamed Rodosçuk after it fell to the Ottomans in the 14th century (in western languages it is usually rendered as Rodosto), after the 18th century it was called Tekfurdağı, based on the Turkish word tekfur, meaning "Byzantine lord".

thats not true though. Anatolia was in control of Turkish beyliks. There was no Roman control in Anatolia no more.

Surprise your unstoppable enemy with a series of civil wars and a marriage offer. (Real art of war, Sunnos Tzusos. Probably not.. No, not really.)

The Sunnos Tzusos from you is epic:))))))

It really is triggering to see a once mighty empire becoming so weak and pathetic with so many civil wars. After serbia and bulgaria expanded into hellas there was basically nothing left of the empire yet they still had draining civil wars to destroy what little they had left! Even if they were united it would've been extremely difficult to check the Ottomans' expansion, but with all their civil wars they were completely doomed.

Have you ever wondered what the arrival of the Turks really meant for the Eastern Christian world, for the cities, most of which are of Greek origin?

Hello, whats the music in 10:30? thanks

Note to Self: Never retreat when fighting Nomads. It will always turn into a rout.

Btw, Hungary never conquer Vallachia as map at 2:38 show.

Andronikos III actually had some success in Europe. The video doesn't mention that he annexed the Despotate of Epiros. Had he lived another few years, the Byzantines likely would have recovered all of Greece, thereby giving them a larger base of manpower and tax revenue.

Please make a video about The liberation war of Bangladesh in 1971... plz plz plz

Yeah, great! this is my city. Greetings from Prusa to everyone! 🙌

its interesting that as a turk i only learned this conflict from the internet, i dont remember if they tell this stuff in our history classes back in childhood. Probably they never thought its worthy for telling.

There was intense competition between Anatolian beylicks also to dominate each other ottomans face competition from them the most in western Anatolia

I thought we learned our lesson about hiring Latin and mercenaries I guess 1204 was an after thought.

Do the Spanish-American War next
