THE TURKS AND THE WEST. 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."

Sigismund and Mircea were the only ones who had enough experience with the Ottomans to decide the strategy. The french had no idea what they were doing and should have kept their mouths shot. This was a big problem since the beginning of the ottoman expansion in the west. The guys who were holding the line got little support from the west which was too busy with internal fighting and "honor". This is the exact reason why Vienna was under siege. Twice. The right attitude would have been "If I have to clean toilets to defeat the turks I'll do it gladly."

@@farhansadeeq5091 Everyone in the Middle East was Muslim. In order for them to dominate the entire geography, there must be a feature that distinguishes the Turks from them. I think this difference stems from the fact that Turks are not from the Middle East. God took the banner of Islam from the Arabs and gave it to the Turks. Middle Eastern tribes are lethargic because of the opportunities offered by geography and lazy because of the heat. On the contrary, the Turks, with their culture they brought from Central Asia, were extremely enterprising, hard-working, restless, always looking for adventure. In other words, the secret of the Ottoman victories was that they were not local to the region, and frankly, Islam became a more useful and useful religion in the hands of the Turks. Muslim ROME, which combined the assertiveness of the steppe peoples with the Roman state system and consolidated it with the caliphate, became the 3rd Rome.

In the name of all the Serbs, we do not apologies to the Allies. They should have helped before or after the battle of Kosovo, instead of bickering amongst themselves. The Serbs here did not betray christendom, but rather christendom betrayed the Serbs. We did what we could and now had to survive under the boots of the Ottomans. Stefan Lazarevic is the prime example of leadership, chivalry and bravery. He would have been an amazing asset to the Allies if they have helped the Serbs.

A lot of balkan lads seem to be viewing this battle through nationalist lenses. At this time period the world was owned by noble families. The serbian ruling family picked the ottomans because they offered them the best deal as the serbian army as seen in the battle could offer the ottomans the ability to match the European knights. If the serbians picked the Hungarian they would simply be just another vassal with armoured knights.

Not exactly from the Balkans but I am eastern European and I think the Serbians probably did the right thing there. Hungarians always looked out for their own interests and tried to undermine their "allies" and put puppet rulers on the throne instead. Serbia just tried to do the same here and put their own interests first. That may have been a bad decision in hindsight but hindsight is an unreliable thing to judge things by.

Mircea was right, the war was over before it even started. The next country planned to be invaded was Walachia and he had to be prepared against the Ottomans. Timur gave to Mircea 50 more years to prepare. Perhaps the reason of Walachia was not invaded and remained only a vassal was this 50 years.

Great thanks for this brief documentary. I am Serbian and have great urge to comment about this historic battle and repercussions. I am speaking as enthusiast and academic historian at the same time. The actual events presented in this video are speed up and not clarified enough. First of all Crusader Army had numerical superiority. Yes ,Vanity among them cost them and they paid ultimate price with their heads. But before this battle there was one before battle of Rovine which took place on 17 May 1395, near present-day Pitești in deep Wallachian territory which Bayezid lost.His Christian Vassals get killed during this battle and Bayezid annexed their lands and properties(quite common in so "honourable" middle age).Marko Mrnjavcevic and Konstantin Dragas died during battle. According to chronicles Constantine of Kostenets :Marko said to Dragas before the battle :"I pray God to help the Christians and that I will be among the first dead in this war." So it was morally difficult to be a vassal in such battle. Stefan Lazarevic had Baptism of Fire in this battle also(18 year of age ) And in early 1394 2 years before Nicopolis battle Bayezid began gathering his Christian vassals at Serres. Among the vassals were Stefan, Emperor Manuel II (1391-1425), his nephew John VII (1390) and his brother Theodore I of Morea (r. 1383-1407), and the Serbian lord Constantine Dragaš. It is believed( Byzantine sources)that Bayezid planned to kill the vassals at the meeting and take their lands. He gave the order to kill them, but it was not done immediately, then he changed his mind, after which some of them went home, while the rest of them completed the conquest of Area of Thessaly and Thessaloniki (12 April). I need to emphasize that a significant role was played by Stephen II and Mircea I because they withdrew with their forces from both wings and the battlefield just before Stefan's attack, leaving Sigismund without support. They had probably dealt with Stefan before the battle. Sigismund managed to escape by fisherman's boat to the Venetian ships in the Danube. It is possible that Stefan left enough time for him to board the boat; Stefan saving Sigismund may be one of the causes of Stefan's later induction 1408 into the "Order of the Dragon". Later he was forced to watch execution of captive french Burgundian Crusaders almost 3000 heads chopped off . Quite horror spectacle as vendetta for executed Muslim prisoners in sieges before Why Stefan Lazarevic support Bayezid as loyal vassal and knight at that time? Simply he choose lesser of the two evils for his country.His father waged wars with Ugars and they plundered North of Serbia after Kosovo clash. So he had deep rooted distrust to Crusaders and actual Northern neighbor. His sister become one of Bayezid's four legal wife's (after she was sent to his harem) He was loyal until Bayezid last moment and crushing defeat from Tamerlan at Angora 1402. Not all Serbian Nobles accept this vassal obligation Vuk Brankovic (Game of thrones expression :"refuse to call ") and consequently lost all his lands and died in Ottoman captivity. Bayezid is reported to have held Prince Stefan in high esteem One of the cronicles from that time recorded Bayesid words: "I think of you as my eldest and favorite son, who stands before me in such honour as you? I am already growing old, and soon will die perhaps in battle or of illness - and then your time will come." Stefan also saved one of his sons during aftermath of Battle of Angora 1402. Stefan Lazarevic later become one of the richest rulers in Medieval Europe mostly because of Silver Mines(Novo Brdo) True Knight. So simply there is no space and time to present all turbulent events from early 15th century (this is just tip of the iceberg) Audience sorry for this long story i simple had inspiration and motive. Keep Going- this history video documentaries makes world better . Vladan

Dejane tebi ću odgovoriti a da ne bude preterano pisanije.Ovaj komentar na turskom sam pogledao i preveo i to neću odgovarati. Lako je sada sa pozicije čoveka 21-veka posmatrati i praviti strategije what-if.Moraš se staviti u način razmišljanja vladar kasnog 14 veka. Kada to kažem mislim na nivo obrazovanja,donošenja iznudjenih odluka ,rezonovanja,uticaja crkve,epidemija kuge,prava i prakse primogenture,pozicija žena na dvoru itd. Pa Stefan je ratovao protiv svog rodjenog brata Vuka Lazarevića koji je bio tolikom zadojen mržnjom prema svom bratu da je u turskom gradjanskom ratu posle Angore prišao Musi Čelebi i kasnije od njega i pogubljen. Teška vremena stalnih izdaja,nož u ledja od najbližeg krvnog srodstva.Ako je za utehu tako je bilo i u drugim delovima Evrope (primer Španije tokom Reconquista istorijskog perioda) Ovde ti preporučujem: "VITEZ U DOBA ZLA " "RADIČEVO ZAVEŠTANJE " Nikola Moravčević Posle svega da li je moglo biti drugačije.Da moglo je ! Za kraj na ćirilici : "Горски Вијенац-oдломак Великаши, проклете им душе, на комате раздробише царство, српске силе грдно сатријеше; великаши, траг им се утро, распре сјеме посијаше грко, те с њим племе српско отроваше; великаши, грдне кукавице, постадоше рода издајице."

As a Turk, I can say from the experience that both Kosovo and Nicopolis crusades are taught as great Ottoman victories in our history class, which is usual since every nations loves to overrate their role in historical events. Also I can say from the experience that the role of Serbian troops in Ankara (1402) were also mentioned if I am not mistaken. Also I must say that by showing different viewpoints and of course details with the help of video-graphical technology and storytelling, this video does very good job.

I'm Serbian and this battle alway's gets thrown at our faces by other Christians, but let me ask you something. When Serbs, Greeks and Bulgarians asked for help decades before it happened, did it come? Not only did it not come, but Christians, most notably Hungarians, pillaged and razed those kingdoms. So, to sum it up, was it more important for, let's say Serbs, to switch sides of the people who killed them off for decades or was it more important for Stefan to keep his word and most importantly, honor? And fyi, he was the most important member of the Order of the Dragon, Christians could've get him on their side, only if they acted like humans not like animals.

First, consider it as Orthodoxy and Catholicism, not Christianity. Second, the Serbs were already fighting among themselves; lazerevic's, brankovic's, marko's, dragas's. The power behind the Lazerevic family was the Ottomans. Third, for the Serbs, the Hungarians were more dangerous than the Ottomans. The fourth, Stefan Lazerevic was the brother of Beyazıd's wife and had an important position in the Ottoman palace. At the end of the Ankara war, the only troops remaining with Beyazid were the Serbs. If you consider the Ottoman Empire not as a Muslim Arab country but as a multicultural Balkan empire that was the continuation of the Byzantine Empire, you can understand the next 500 years better. For example, Mara Brankovic was the tutor, counselor, mentor, guardian angel and real-life-mother of Mehmet the conquerer throughout his life. Even Bayazid II called her "mom". Mehmed-paša Sokolović was the real ruler of the Ottoman Empire as the Grand Vizier for 14 years. Many of the Janissaries were of Serbian origin. Most of the present-day lands of Turkey came under Ottoman rule after Serbia.

If there is one thing that cannot be blamed on the French knights, it is their courage and their valor in battle. On the other hand the tactic (apart from that of big nags) was not their forte. This irrational search for glory at all costs, even that of their death, has something both magnificent and tragic about it. A tradition inherited from their Gallic ancestors who fought naked to defy death and their adversaries?

The gauls fighting naked thing is a myth. There two sources that mention anything like that. One discusses a specific circumstance where clothes were more of a hindrance due to the ground on the battlefield. The other was written 2 centuries after the wars. No firsthand account mentions it. Many firsthand accounts mention gallic armour being made of metal and leather They were barbarians but they werent stupid. The depictions of them as naked warriors is meant to showcase how brave but uncivilized they were. The naked gaul always loses to the clothed opponent

Fortunately for the Crusade, many more men were available in central and Eastern Europe. On arrival in Hungary in April 1396 CE, the western army was joined by an army of 70,000 under the command of King Sigismund of Luxembourg (r. 1387-1437 CE). The Crusader army now swelled to around 100,000 fighting men following the addition of perhaps 15,000 independent warriors from England, Italy, Poland, Spain, and Bohemia. To add to this land force, a joint fleet of Genoese, Venetian, and Knights Hospitaller ships sailed to the Black Sea and held station off the mouth of the River Danube. source world history encyclopedia

Instead of realizing that the ottoman military structure was centralized, while the christian powers were very disunited. That's what gave the ottomans the edge and ultimately... win. It's not as if it took a masterful tactic to win. Same as with the battle at Ankara. Timur did not win because he was better. He won because he had more troops and also... because he bribed some ottoman mercs.

I really love your channel and have seen all the videos but I have a question on this one. Did you hesitate to portray the duke of Burgundy with of map of his estates? Here he just looks like a random french noble, which although legally accurate, doesn't reflect the real situation at the time. His banquet of the pheasant impressed the whole of Europe with his wealth and power and he basically financed and organised and substantially manned the crusade. Not only that but he was the senior noble in France, the king was his nephew and he had huge influence over french affaires while building the richest state of Europe in the low countries. De facto he was independent and his son who indeed led the crusade will end up causing a civil war in France and even allying with the english against them. I was wondering if you would consider making a video on that history not often told (mostly historians focus on the death of the last duke but the state they created was way more interesting).

No doubt French was shocking for the Ottoman troops, but they seem more disciplined and preserved cohesion on the contrary of Crusaders. Even first lines that shattered by French then returned to hold Hungarians meanwhile Romanian troops left the field. I also wonder why Ottomans didn't try to make their cavalry more armored even after experiencing how effective heavily armored cavalry is in battles.

They did have their own armoured cavalry, but probably in a slightly lower percentage than Europeans. In general the number of armoured knights was quite small, even in Europe. Serbian despotate fielded about 300-600 heavy cavalry in this battle. On the whole, Ottoman approach was highly successful, and their famed light cavalry was excellent in every way. They were basically the dominant force in Europe for 200 years after this battle.

It is an unacceptable disadvantage to wear heavy armor and move slowly in the war traditions of the Turks. Before the first Hun empire was established in Central Asia, the Turks had developed a common philosophy of war and they still equip an army with the same idea for thousands of years. When a heavily armored falls to the ground, he's done. However, a small unit of 300 lightly armored men quickly takes positions and can change tactics instantly. This is the most effective strategy in war. that is, the Turks use light body armor, short swords and bows. While attacking, they attack their opponents with kick-punch-shoulder blows along with the weapon.
