You can easily tell only English sources were used as Ottoman army was vast majority cavalry not infantry. According to Turkish sources Ottoman army had 8,000 Janissaries, 4,000 Kapıkulu heavy cavalry and around 40,000 Sipahis. So 60,000 number is quite accurate but cavalry ratio was 4:1 at least and that was why Ottoman was very keen to catch Mamluks in a pitched battle instead of a defensive war. Because of this heavy cavalry army Ottoman always struggled to capture castles and towns that cavalry was useless in sieges. So Sultan Selim wasn't sending envoys to trick Mamluks rather he was acting like Ottoman was weak so Mamluks would dare to face them in a pitched battle which was exactly what happened. According to Turkish sources Ottoman cannons were causing heavy casualties for Mamluks so they threw everything for an all out assault on Ottoman sides where light armoured Sipahis were positioned. Sipahis were light armored skirmish forces and they could not handle heavy combat well so they struggled a bit but managed to repel Mamluks. Soon after entire Mamluk battle formation collapsed. Also Turkish sources very clearly state Hayır Bey retreated after right wing collapsed because of Mamluk casualties not before. About Mamluk sultan Ottoman forces just found him dead on the battlefield, nobody exactly knew how he died. It is believed he died from falling from his horse but it is even possible his own soldiers killed him. Entire battle took 8 hours, vast majority of Mamluk army got killed or captured while 2,000 Mamluks refusing to follow orders got executed after the battle. I don't know why western historians ridiculously act like Turkish sources are unreliable while it is all there without much fantasy or bias like ''instant stroke'' etc. You can argue English sources are better for youtube videos as they are full of spicy fantasy that i would agree..

Yeah they got out flanked by the Portuguese who went around Africa into an Ocean dominated by Muslim ships but they were unprotected. Indian Ocean trade was so peaceful and predictable the trading dhows didn't have to carry arms, and coastal cities were not fortified so the Portuguese could pillage and pirate with impunity. They even went into the Red Sea and threaten the holy cites in Hijaz. I read somewhere the Mamluks just didn't maintain a navy and destroyed most of their harbors to prevent Crusader attacks. I think that was a big mistake.

I feel as though part of this is misleading. The Mamluk heavy cavalry was probably better than the Ottomans. The Mamluks may have recruited peasants, but much of the Ottoman force were Ghazis and irregular cavalry. Maybe not "peasants" per se, but not disciplined warriors by any stretch. The Ottomans core force (though not the largest part, by any strecth) were the Janissaries and Sipahi (heavy cav). The Ottomans defintely had more guns and firepower, but that was only the artillery and the Janissaries. The video makes it seem like the Ottomans were fully equiped with firearms, but both sides used bows, lances and other melee weapons. The Janissaries were maybe 7100 (on paper) out of the 60,000ish Ottoman troops. So, firearms ddefinitely played a major role in these battles.

I am very happy that I discovered this channel. I have been following it for two years.

The Mamluk sultanate is the sultanate of slaves. During the Ayyubid sultanate, Kipchak Turkics and Circassians, brought as slaves from the north of the Black Sea and the Caucasus, were included in the army and took over the government by making a palace coup against the Ayyubid sultanate. One of the commanders of the Mamluk army, usually the head of the Mamluk sultanateit would pass. By stopping the Mongol advance in the Middle East, the Mamluks prevented Syria, Egypt and the Hejaz regions from falling under Mongol rule, and eliminated the last remnants of the Crusaders in the Middle East. The Mamluk Sultanate was an important state in terms of Islamic history.

THE TURKS AND THE WEST from 11 days. Europe stood in awe of the Ottomans who crushed many states and conquered vast territories, going, as all patriotic Turks will proudly point out, "all the way to the gates of Vienna." European literature is replete with the depictions of the Turk as the hated enemy. The English often thought of the Turk as awe-inspiring and destructive. Thomas Fuller wrote in The Holy Warre (1639): "The Turkish Empire is the greatest... the sun ever saw. ...Grass springeth not where the grand signior's horse setteth his foot." During the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries , understanding the Turks ‘ military organization , given the credit for the greatest empire since antiquity , became a major European preoccupation . Speake, J., n.d. Literature of travel and exploration. p.891. By the middle of the 16th century, the Turks arguably possessed the greatest empire in the world.

The Mamluk state channel is in its worst times of defeat because of the use of primitive weapons by the Mamluks and also the betrayal of the leaders of the Mamluk army and their Ottoman embolism and directing artillery fire against the Mamluk army

In 1517 the Ottoman sultan Selim I (1512-20), known as Selim the Grim, conquered Egypt, defeating the Mamluk forces at Ar Raydaniyah, immediately outside Cairo. The origins of the Ottoman Empire go back to the Turkish-speaking tribes who crossed the frontier into Arab lands beginning in the tenth century. Having failed to adopt field artillery as a weapon in any but siege warfare, the Mamluks were decisively defeated by the Ottomans both in Syria and in Egypt and from 1517 onward constituted only one of the several components that formed the political structure of Egypt. The usual answer to the question is that Ottomans had superior weapons and fire power as well as up to date military tactics. The Mamluks fought in traditional way.

But they quickly realized the economic potential of a new trade route out of Venice-ottoman control. When Vasco de gama circumnavigated Africa it was a reconnaissance mission, he gauged the Muslim presence in the atlantic/Indian ocean and retuned to Portugal. He left again for Indian ocean but this time with a larger fleet. TLDR many factors explain why the age of European discovery started not just one.

The Mamluks in their weakest time used primitive weapons and betrayed the leaders of the Mamluk Army and directed artillery fire on the Mamluks instead of the Ottomans

how did they control the Caspian sea ?

I just saw historymarche video

Save 13 Minutes mamluks were unstable and the ruler died during the war

4:38 empire ☠️💪🏻

Satisfying to do that in EU4 :)

You explained the two great wars, the Mercidabık and Ridaniye wars, very simply. It is described as if nothing much happened in the war and the huge Mamluk state was destroyed by two simple wars. I expected a more detailed and realistic explanation...

The Mamluk state was in the maximum period of weakness and disintegration of it and the Mamluks used primitive weapons and the leaders of the Mamluk army were bribed and artillery fire was directed at the Mamluks instead of the Ottomans

Sounds like the the old Sultan stroked out at the news that he lost.

They had no guns but cannons.

B.S, that’s like 308% warscore at LEAST. Selim 1 is using hacks

Sultan had a stroke.

Mohamed ali pasha 🔥🔥

Thank you so so much for your support!

ottoman empired controlled caspian sea? how?

Napolyon saldırısına kadar Mısır 281 yıl Osmanlı Türk yönetiminde kaldı. 1882 ye hatta 1914 e kadar da Türk etkisi sürdü. Osmanlı öncesindeki Memlükler de zaten Türk devletiydi. Hatta Memlükler ülkelerine Türkiye derdi… Mısır’da halen halk üzerinde güçlü bir dostane ilişki olarak Türk etkisi vardır.

There is no Turkish or other influence on the Egyptian people because the Egyptian people have the greatest civilization Second, most of the period of occupation of the Ottoman Empire was only nominal occupation, especially after the rise of Muhammad Ali Pasha to rule Egypt, and there was nothing called a Turkish state Originally the Mamluks were two factions Marine Mamluks Tower Mamluks It consists of Georgian Circassians Second, Turkey is a modern country that has nothing to do with all this It was founded in the forties by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, it has no civilization or The history and region of the Balkans was just an Egyptian colony during the era of the Holy Egyptian Empire during the era of Sizostris

When crusaders were killing muslim in iberian peninsula, Auttoman were destroying another Islamic empire in stead of saving Muslim.

The Mamluks in their weakest time used primitive weapons and the leaders of the Mamluk army were maimed by the Ottomans and these traitors directed their cannons fire against the Mamluk army

Saad 2 muslims fighting, mamluks were the one who stopped the Mongols

Pretending your neighbours believe in a different religion just to starts wars haha

You circled the Near East when you said Middle East region.

Mapping should of been better and more detail

The Ottoman rule in Egypt left a legacy marked by both economic exploitation and political instability. Under Ottoman control, Egypt experienced heavy taxation, which burdened the local population and hindered economic growth. The Ottomans also relied on a system of appointing governors who often prioritized their own interests over those of the people, leading to widespread corruption and mismanagement.

Additionally, the Ottoman presence fueled tensions between different ethnic and religious groups within Egyptian society, exacerbating social unrest. Overall, the Ottoman era in Egypt was characterized by economic stagnation, political turmoil, and social inequality.

I wonder if Sultan Al-Ashraf Qasun Al-Ghawri had a stroke because his reaction to the battle has similarities to symptoms of a stroke. Because some of the symptoms of a stroke is half of your body being paralyzed and difficulty of keeping balance. Which both afflicted Sultan Al-Ashraf Qasun Al-Ghawri during the battle.

Yeah, that was my first thought too.

I love your videos. I also post history videos.

You and history marche made the same video

Sultan did not just decleared that Safavids were allies with memlukes. You have to understand that Ottoman Sultans can not declare a war without fatwa(permission from islamic scholars). A sunni state such as memlukes helping a shia state is unaccaptable, that’s why Sultan could take a fatwa and attack memlukes so he could become the first non-arab caliph. Ottoman was built based on religion. You can not understand any history about Seljuks or Ottomans if you don’t read it from religios perspective. Unlike Catholig history, there are no things such as grudge or ambition, it’s all for Islam only.

Sounds like he had a stroke
