Kings and Generals began remaking its animated historical documentary on the history of the Ottoman empire with the early rise of the Ottoman beylik under Osman I. In the first video we covered the early origins of the beylik, its status among the Muslim states in Anatolia and its early clashes against the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire at Bapheus and Dimbos in 1302 ( • Rise of the Ottoman Em... ). The second episode showed how a tiny beylik became a regional power with the continued battles against the Byzantine empire and other states, including the siege of Prusa (Bursa) between 1317 and 1326 and the battle of Pelekanon of 1329 ( • How the Ottomans Took ... ). As the Ottoman entered the Balkans, they had to face the Serbian Empire and the Second Bulgarian Empire, leading to the battles like Maritsa in 1371 ( • Maritsa 1371 - End of ... ). The Ottomans continued expanding both in Europe and Asia, leading to the conflicts with many states, including the Karamanids, culminating at the battle of Frenkyazisi in 1387 ( • Ottoman Expansion in A... ). As the Ottomans managed to defeat their enemies in Anatolia, they now had time to fight against the burgeoning Balkan alliance that formed against them with Lazar Hrebeljanovic of the Moravian Serbia at its head. His confrontation with the sultan Murad I would led to the battle of Kosovo in 1389 ( • Battle of Kosovo 1389 ... ). In the aftermath of Kosovo, Bayezid I takes the power and continues campaigns both in Anatolia and the Balkans. The events in Anatolia culminate at the battle of Kirdilim of 1391, where the Sultan defeats his Turkic opponents led by Kadi Burhaneddin. This episode also describes how the Ottomans became the sultans of Rum getting the title of the Seljuks and the crusade preparing against them. In this series we are planning to cover every major battle of the Ottoman empire, including Kosovo, Nicopolis, Ankara, Varna, 2nd Kosovo, Constantinople, Belgrade, Targoviste, Otlukbeli, Vaslui, Valea Alba, Skanderbeg's rebellion, Breadfield, Krbava, Otranto, Chaldiran, the Ottoman-Mamluk War of 1516-1517, siege of Rhodes in 1522, Mohacs of 1526, Vienna of 1529, Preveza, Gorjani, Castelnuovo, Buda, Eger, Malta, Szigetvar, Famagusta, Lepanto and much more!

Fun Fact: Johann (Hans) Schiltberger was a soldier fought under Sigismund's banner. In Nicopolis he was taken prisoner by Ottomans. Then served to Bayezid I. Battle of Ankara he taken prisoner by Timurids and went to capital Semerkand and fought for Georgia Campaings. After death of Timur, Timurids went through a civil war. In civil war he taken prisoner of war again. First Şahruh (Shah Rukh) then Miran Şah (Miran Shah) and lastly Ebu Bekir (Abu Bakr son of Miran Şah). In Ebu Bekir's army he met a Tatar Prince named Chekre (Çekre) and joined him as mercenary. They fought in lands of Kipchaks like city of Kazan. After some time Tatar Prince went bankrupt. And Schiltberger left him. He traveled Siberia. Years later he went to Constantinople and returned his home in Bavaria. He wrote his travels, adventures and his life named famous book "Reisebuch". In his last years he served under Duch Albert (III). Well, life is full of suprises. Regulation: Ladies and gentlemen, thanks for your attention and like.

Bayezid came very close to the Anatolian Turkish political union that emerged later, but the twist of classical Turkish history brought the two great Turkish minds face to face, many documents and information were shared about the Ankara war, the most interesting part was the day before the start of the war, on 19 or 27 July. Bayezid, despite all his intelligence network, caught Timur unprepared in front of the Ankara castle, when he was caught between the castle and Bayezid's army, he rejected the idea of ​​an attack by his sons and staff, and gave Timur the opportunity to escape to the stick plain. It is about his desire to rest his army after the journey or to defeat Timur in a field battle with valor, for whatever reason, a big mistake that would not be expected from a field marshal like Bayezid, and he paid the price...

The Battle of Catalaunian Plains was a victory for the Roman Empire and its allies, even if the Huns were Turks. The Battle of Mansurah (both in 1221 and 1250) was fought against the Ayyubids, a Kurdish dynasty. Russia was pretty much on its own against the Ottomans and Crimean Tatars in 1571. The Long Turkish War was basically a long slugfest that was indecisive on both sides. Iceland was not occupied in 1627 by the Ottoman Empire, it was raided by Barbary pirates, and as part of Denmark-Norway, was on its own. Everything else in this list (which is still a lot) is still correct.

@@KingsandGenerals status quo refers the recent actual relations sq ante app. how the things stood before some changes has been made I think it would be correct agreeing/confirming the status quo & reestablishing the status quo ante. at this point i'd like to say thank you for all the work and effort you made

[@chasechristophermurraydola9314]

Wow I would say that out of all the independent Turkish beyliks in the mid 14th century of Anatolia the Karamanids and the Eretnids had the most territory.

The Ottomans were highly influencial, for centuries. Their reach, positive reach, was far and wide. Evening reaching us down here at the southernmost tip of the African continent 🇿🇦 The Ottomans had a great influence on our "Cape Malay" community, a community who's forefathers were enslaved and exiled to The Cape Colony by the Dutch.

"positive reach XDDDDD"

[@johnnybravo6951]

@@darthunleashed The Irish can relate. They know and understand the positive reach and efforts made by the Ottomans.

[@shamsishraq6831]

​@@darthunleashed Most empires were not uniquely evil or virtuous. The Ottomans took in many Jewish and Muslim refugees from Granada and Circassia for example. Many Protestant renegades found a place there. Maghreb avoided Spanish colonization and the inevitable forced conversions because of them. It's not difficult to see why they would see Ottomans in a positive light. Unlike contemporary European states which wiped out people on small religious issues, the Ottomans displayed a (somewhat chauvinistic) tolerance. Studying history should be about learning different perspectives and seeing the past with as unclouded a lens as possible. If you uncritically believe "The Turkish Menace" propaganda from three centuries back, how can you expect to not fall for modern propaganda?

@Zakariya Abdul Al-Wahhab al-Sharkassy No such term as Balkanar first of all. Cope with how many fans Ottomans got

[@Mirko1913]

Hahahahaha. Positive reach. Hahahahaha. Ask the Christians under their yoke how positive the reach was. OK...?

Fun fact later on these Beyeliks joint Safavid Order and Tariqat and declared official religion of Iran Shia at 1501. Shah Ismael Safavi him self had bloodline from Byzantine Empire of Trabuzan. Those Turkish clans later on migrated back to Iran. They were 7 clans known as Qizilbash. Rumlu ( Roman) , Ustajlu , Zolqadar , Shamlu ( Syrian ) , Tekelu ( From Teke ) , Afshar and Qajar. Karamanids were Afshar too. Later on when Sunni population and Zoroasterians of Iran ( Pashtuns, Baluchis and parsik) made revoultion against Safavid Empire clan Afshar got the power. Later on Clan Afshar established Afsharid Empire by Nader Shah Afshar at 1736 by coup against Safavids. And later on Qajars took the throne from Afshars and Zands and they ruled Iran from 1790s up to 1925. Also its good to mention that after 1st Anglo Afghan war Barakzai dynasty took power in Afghanistan. But the 1st ruler of Barazkai dynasty dust mohamad khan's mother was from clan Afshar. So he had military support of Clan Afshar and Afghanistan lost its king in 1978 a coup that happened by USSR supports

Fun fact about the Ottomans: The Ottomans did not actually call themselves Ottoman. The name of the state was Devlet-i Aliye (The Great State). And they thought that this state should rule the peoples all over the world. This idea is an indication that the Turks carry the traces of their pre-Islamic ancestral beliefs. The name of this belief is "Turkish World Domination" (Türk Cihan Hakimiyeti). It's motto is "One God in the sky (Gök Tengri) and one ruler on the ground (Turkish Khagan)".

[@AthrihosPithekos]

As per usual, people from Turkey forget the Jews, Rums, Albanians, Serbs, Bulgarians, Georgians, Laz, Pomaks and many others that changed faith and made the Ottoman project possible.

Can you also explain Beyazids nickname? '' Yıldırım=Lightning''

[@zeroner777]

Dobruja is pronounced the same way you would pronounce Jam in english without the 'm' at the end. DobruJA(M).

Is it the first video ever not to have on-the-field battle formations where they were relevant?

[@erhanozaydin853]

From mid 14th to mid 15th centuries this land resembled a country with two capitals, one in Edirne and the other Constantinolple. Nobles and high bureaucrats would hedge their bets in the other capital, just in case one of the two treacherous courts would not do them justice. There was intense spying and bribery too. Everybody in one court would know what was discussed and decided in the other court one week before. It is amazing this went on for a century, a testament to Roman prowess at diplomacy. However this did not save them the humiliation of besieging their own city of Philadelphia under Ottoman banner.
