Nils Wettlin Absolutely not, the largest military power was catholic France which pretty much was allied with the Ottomans to weaken its Austrian/HRE rivals. The war against the Ottomans lasted from 1683 to 1699. From 1688 to 1697 there was at the same time as the war against the Ottomans also the Nine Years War of much of Europe against France (Louis XIV). The Ottomans were defeated time and time again during the war, there’s no way that they somehow magically could’ve conquered Europe when they were already defeated by parts of the HRE (Austria, Bavaria, Saxony and some smaller contingents from Franconia, Baden etc.) and Poland at the Battle of Vienna.

But there were tries, the friendship with Otton III, leasing Prussia to Teutonic Knights (yeah, that didn't end well), serving in German army during WW1 (okay, Poles served in basically every army during that war, but we served *especially* in german one), agreeing at gunpoint that East Germany doesn't have to pay us reparations for WW2 that unified Germany still uses as excuse to not do so...

05:30 is really misleading for a whole number of reasons lol... First of all the Polish army made up only about 1/3 of the relief army that fought at the Battle of Vienna. Less than 1/3 if we also include the garrison of Vienna that was also fighting against the Ottomans during the battle. The bulk of the army were Imperial Austrian and German troops (with the largest contingents from Bavaria and Saxony). Furthermore the Polish troops on the right wing arrived late for the battle, the Austrian and German troops were already fighting half a day before the Polish infantry arrived. The Polish cavalry really only entered the battle in the evening after pretty much a whole day of fighting when the Ottomans were already facing defeat (the right wing of the Ottomans was routed and the center under infantry attack from three sides). In the end even if the Ottomans would’ve conquered Vienna there’s no way that they could’ve conquered Europe. Large parts of Europe fought against France (Nine Years War 1688-1697) whilst the war against the Ottomans (1683-1699) was going on... Louis XIV was basically more of a threat than the Ottomans.
