The Overwhelming Defeat Of The Ottoman Empire At Zenta | More Than Just Enemies | Timeline
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 апр 2023
- It is September 11, 1697 and the Ottoman army is annihilated in the battle of Zenta by the imperial army led by Prince Eugene of Savoy, thus ending the steady rise of the Ottoman Empire over the previous centuries. 30 000 die. The super powers of this period are the Habsburg Empire and the Ottomans. The dominance of the Habsburgs is well documented, but the Ottoman Empire was a civilization that was no less developed and whose culture we know only little about.
This two part series is an expedition through the most complex times that Europe has ever experienced - and an era that still resonates today.

Misleading title not much about the Battle of Zenta but actually a biography of Prinz Eugen
Agreed
Seeing as it's a sequel to his biagraphy it makes sense.
History really does repeat itself. Documentaries that include reenactments such as these make them so much more interesting to watch.
You think that's why Western Civilization has not allowed the Middle East to ever rebuild
Thats not a library, that's a work of art that you can explore.
Thank you for the great content!! And an informative story, keep up the great work!! I look forward to more video! I was hoping in the near future something on Harold Hadrada,not a normal one like most of the ones out here but a completely indepeth acount of everything ever put down about him and his contingency of warriors exactly where he campaign who he fought against the story of his treasure ships being sent back for safekeeping this story has everything I know you guys could put together a epic story
A wonderful historical coverage & enjoyed video 😊
Just amazing work. Masterpiece!
I love this. Excellent documentary!
Enjoyed this
Lance is an uncommon name nowadays but in medieval times people were named Lance a lot.
😂
I see what you did there sir.
According to Philomena Cunk, King Arther also came a lot.
Doh !
You can show yourself out.
We got your 'point.'
Y can’t all docs be this well produced? Bravo, channel 🎉
Mostly because of money and time, things like this are insanely difficult to produce

Excellent video about Prince Eugene and the Ottomans, bu I'd like to see one as good on his years in yoke with Marlborough.
Simply remarkable film making. This was above and beyond my expectations.
A couple of nitpicks:
1. The real Eugene wasn't nearly as handsome as the actors who portray him. He had bulging eyes, a feminine mouth and a thin nose.
2. Austrian artillery wore brown uniforms, not white. In fact, no artillery in the world wore white uniforms, as that would be quite idiotic, what with the smoke, gunpowder and soot an artilleryman has to handle.
3. As with all TV and movie productions, the untrue stereotype of gunpowder armies shooting in a leisurly way is again seen here. In truth, soldiers would frantically be shooting and reloading as fast as they could. The only time units would bid their time before shooting, would be before the very first salvo.
4. Pluto was unknown in the 1700s. It was only discovered in the 1930s.
Excellent.
Fantastic video keep it up you're doing amazing things 😁👍
Skeptical that the concept of military drill "didn't exist" until the 18th century.
Yes. I imagine a lot of hoplites sniggering at that remark. Perhaps they were talking about drilling with firearms.
I am pretty sure that Alexander the Great and many Roman Commanders made their troops to perform military drills quite often, maybe with other name but basically identhical to modern drills both for training and power exhibition
@@cesaravegah3787it has been documented that Alexander during the war with Thracians ,Paionians,Dardanians ,instructed his Phalanx to perform drills 5hat included attack etc.his enemies upon seen the drills,military manoeuvres panicked and fled.
We know the Spartans drilled constantly, that's why they were so good compared to the militias that other cities fielded.
Maybe they shouldn't waste so much time filling a poor reenactment and research things instead.
Thanks
It seems that Eugene is one of the few that strikes fear on the Ottomans like when they know when thier up against him they only suffer defeat brilliant man.
Where did you read or listen that he “strikes fear” on the Ottomans?
@@MohamedShou you dont need to read or listen to know that someone fears someone its common sense unfortunately.

This is a good documentary film about end of war for Hungary between Ottomans and Habsburgs(1521-1699-or 1718). Hungary was a big battlefield of permanent little wars in what a plenty of inhabitant died or escaped to North or Transylvania from middle part of the country, and this was the sign of end of this horrible times when Hungary kept same number of people than in 15th century during another Western countries trippled their numbers. Ottomans were still strong(they outmanouvered Peter the Great in this time). Or course mother of the sultan(Gülnüsh) was in Istanbul in 1697 not in Zenta.
Hungary did not exist in the first time - it was either Transylvania or Habsburg Empire. Than , it did not keep "same number of people" , but they were halved by the Ottomans .
It could be clearly seen at the number of Hungarians participating in the liberation of Budapest and other former Hungarian territories - they were just 15% of the Habsburg army .
@@seaman5705 Habsburg Empire was never an official name, after 1526 Habsburgs were king of Hungary, Bohemia, Croatia but those countries had their own estate assemblies (the official absolutism introduced in Bohemia after 1620(when Bohemians/Czech defeated by the Habsburgs). Transylvanian principality established in 1571 for the "counter king's(Szapolyai 1526-41)son by sultan Sulejman and Selim, and accepted by the Habsburg king as Princeps(formal souverinity)but Partium(East-Hungarian territories)attached to Transylvania as a heritage(and Ottomans conquests from the Habsburgs in 1552)[voivoides of Transsylvania were never Transylvanians but lords who came from Eastern Hungary]. Hungary was battlefiled means were never real and firm borders but smaller/bigger armies always fought against each others(e.g. Hungarian nobility paid own mercenaries to get taxation even from deep inside of Ottoman territories). Transylvania supported Royal Hungary against Habsburg attempted introduction of real absolutism what introduced in Hungary only about 1770's-1790 1795-1825 because situation around was dangerous(Poland participated).
Of course most of money came from Austrian and Czech territories because if Hungary fall or change side such as Serbs or Wallachians, Ottomans attack them immidiatley. 1682-1699 were an international army, Polish saved Vienna at first and penetrated deep to Ottoman territories It was inancially supported by English and Dutch bankers, a plenty of voluntaries from West-Europe even Louis XIV supported a while.
@@laistvan2 All good, but Hungary was not a kingdom anymore after 1526 - not a subject of international laws and treaties . Small forms of autonomy for Hungarian nobles didn't make it more kingdom - the Hungarian diet had no effective power against the ruling of the Emperor till late after 1848 . It was just a division of the Holy Roman Empire - if you like .
And about the population , as I said was clearly decimated , about half killed by Ottomans after 1526 . This fact was revealed by the early 18th centuries Austrian censuses which showed Hungarians being less than the other nationalities in their former kingdom .
There were the roots of the Magyarisation politic of the 19th-20th century.
Not that the Magyars , or better called Hungarians , of the 16-18 century were much descendants of the migrating Turco_Magyars of the 9-10 century, but Hungarised local population , because the old Magyars and Turkics were decimated started with Lechfeld, than Mohi, the plague , Mohacs .
Current genetics shows a heritage of 1-4% of old Magyars in the DNA of today Hungarians .
@@seaman5705 That is different what you talk about. Hungarian kingdom was never part of Holy Roman Empire only Bohemia, and Habsburgs had title of Holy Roman Empire separatley from Hungarian kingdoms(like later (after 1772)Prussia had Polish territories but they never joined those to the Holy Roman Empire. Of course the Foreign policy were always the king's souverignity only the Transylvanian Principality had sometimes anti-Habsburg policy. Hungary was an integrated kingdom but not in 100% . Habsburgs tried a Germanization more times but failed. Nationality did not matter until late 18 century because most of high nobility used French everywhere in Europe, local nobilities used Latin or local languages. After 1868 Hungary got own government to their own assemblies(from this time parliament). In: 1862 Habsburgs tried to creat a common parliament of the whole empire but Hungarian refused to take a part,, soon after Czech and Polish left also.
@@laistvan2 Whatever Istvan . The point is , Hungary was not a country/kingdom and remaining population was quite small after 1526 . Only Hungarian nobles feudal privileges remained - because was a feudal society , isn't it ?
We have started from your initial affirmations how Hungary had a constant population - which are far from truth .
Hungary did not exist as a state and population decreased drastically - was not numerical constant .
You can twist it like a real Hungarian , the truth still stands .

46:15 Pluto was not discovered until 1930 so it could not possibly be in an astrological chart of that time. Further, Pluto could not be seen by the crude viewing instruments of the time. At that time the only planets known were, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.
Okay, thx for the tip.

Europe needs another Prince Eugene
No it does not. Did you understand the biographic or just enjoy the drama? V. V. Putin wants to be the ruthless warrior & savior of Russia. Look what it's done for his nation.
The world does.
The wigs tho
The Big Wigs
Such a interesting and a forgotten important European historical person.
16:50 - “Conflaggeration”?
Prince Eugene could not his wealth with him but he sure enjoyed it in his lifetime
Eugene was brilliant when with the Duke of Marlborough at Blenheim etc.
so this was also 9-11 interesting
After Eugene's death, the Austrians lost all the territory they had taken during his lifetime, including the fortress of Belgrade.
How Austria devolved from Eugene of Savoy to Conrad von Hotzendorff is an object example of "strong men creating good times only for good times to create weak men".
@@skymaster4743
After him was general from czech republic in 19 century who died in 1858 in italy .
Then they lost most part of Italy
After Eugene's death, the Austrians lost their empire, the Habsburgs and two world wars.
HistoryMarche is covering the battles Eugene of Savoy was in for their animated battlefield history channel. My comment about Zenta was the top comment for their video, highlighting why Napoleon studied Eugene's stardom after Zenta due to how it was his Masterpiece.
..they didnt loose it to ottoman idiot, they pushed ottoman off europes map because they were holy roman emperors at time
Eugene is the reason Austria was able to become an empire and defend itself against France and Ottoman Empire
Before Zenta, Ottomans won 2 battles against Austrians and were on their way to reconquer Hungary but Eugene’s military genius prevented that
So you believe it’s commendable for aristocrats to feed countless ordinary folk into a meat grinder to serve their own aspirations and further their own statehood?
That’s an exceptionally fascist way to view things… the horrendous and brutal lose of life is warranted if it expands the breadth of the aristocrats domain.
I suppose that you mean, "Before Zenta, the Ottomans had won 2 battles against the Austrians......"
@@RichardTaylor1630 true, typo
Tf u on about? Lmao Defend? I am not insulting them but get facts right, they invaded ottoman. They even wanted to invade modern day turkey but they had to stop because of other matters
@@rohansensei5708 Habsburgs defeated them at st gotthard in 1664
"I've heard you have the best goat tanners in the world."
So that's what they called it back then. 😂
The Janissaries were not ethnic Turks until the 18th Century. Until that time most were Christian Serbs, Croats, etc. youths that were forced to convert to Islam.
The astrologer towards the end mentions Pluto. It wasn’t discovered for 200 years after that.
Brilliant general my idol in history
My idol of general
Prince EUGUNE is my hero worth looking up his life
9:28 - Mmmhhmmm...
The Ottomans continued to WW1 times, TE Lawrence times, Lawrence of Arabia. He didn't like the Ottomans much...
Greatest general in europe still today
All general looked at him even Napoleon who studied battle of zenta
Villars defeated him
My ancestor fought with Eugene and lost his life in the taking of Belgrade.
May he rest in peace , will you fight against the current invasion of Europe ?
@@thethinredline4714 my family has done so from the First Crusade when my ancestor who founded the family that would eventually be called de Caldes existed. Although we no longer control any of the 9 Castles or palaces we once did, we can always be counted on to protect the faith. My blood was present at the taking of Jerusalem, responsible for the defense of Vienna (consort to the Queen of Poland and secretary to the HRE crown) as well as being shed at the taking of Belgrade.

@@idontgiveafaboutyou me too! I really wish we can get a good movie about her whole life. They should cast a greek/american actress so the movie can be more mainstream but there should definitely be turkish in the script

Once Eugene conquered the Ottomans he was able to put his feet up.
I think people are pretending you didn't write that....
He didn’t really “conquer” the Ottomans though
@@MohamedShou conquer as in colonise modern day turkey? nope thats what anglos did, Eugene did "conquer" all eastern european parts of turkey
After crapy perception 0:57 to 1:00 how to take rest of documentary for granted? Habsburg monarchy was always eager to make a peace with Ottomans and always on three own expense
In fact, the Ottoman casualties were 7-8 thousand. Most of the army fled. but the high ranking pashas died
Interesting but it's not what it says on the can.
The title is a little misleading
Enjoyed this documentary very much. The only thing I will never get over is how the European royals and the aristocrats where wearing those *sorry to say* stupid wigs and flamboyant clothes 🤦🏾♂️😂
The World has always been The haves & The have nots .
Why did the ottomans end up with a almost identical land empire that the Byzantium kingdom had??? It's weird how similar the maps look when comparing the 2
Cause they conquered the Byzantine Empire
16:50 con-flag-ar-a-tion (?!)
They were real “friends” ;) I’m sure…. Roomate’s if you will.
Seriously September 11th.? Yikes
yea ! & where was the catholic church in rome when the mother church of byzantine needed help to strave off the ottoman/ islamic empire ? now here the western church was evenous of byzantine !
Failure of scouts to track the geo location of the imperial army is the reason to the defeat of Turkish army.
I did not know that the German WWII battleship Prinz Eugen was named after Prince Eugene but this video prompted me to research this and confirmed it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_cruiser_Prinz_Eugen
These reparations are gonna be sweet
I am so happy that Prince Eugene stopped the ottoman barbarians
Lol why are the Ottomans barbarians specifically? Is the Romans in the Roman Empire barbarians? Are the Greeks Barbarians? Was the Holy Roman Empire barbarians? Why specifically Ottomans hey 🤔
@@MohamedShou u r absolutely right lol we all been barbarians by that logic, what he prolly mean is invasions but that too we all been doing that forever
Funny how you have historians speak about the humanism of the modern times generals. As if is a secret of some kind.
Now make a video about how the Turks took all those territories back again.
...only to lose it all back again - and more...
Why did the turks end up with a almost identical land empire as the Byzantines?
@@dannyhutchinson3360 - Mainly because they conquered it FROM the Byzantines.

Great victory over the Ottoman army!
Just stop wasting time making cheap reenactment and maybe research stuff instead. It's filled with pointless dramatization and half truths.... not clicking on these again.
It’s disappointing to see that you only have 2,5 videos about the Ottoman Empire in this channel (0.5 being this video).
This is an Austrian film but translated to English.
Did the Ottomans really lose?
It's a shame the people lived through the defeat.
the best o the ottoman troops and their elit cavalry already crossed to the other side they sould mention this
Guys even though this is a great video you Artie showed the same exact one you just renamed it history hits is great. Eugene of Savoy is great. The Ottomans are great I just feel a little cheated. Because I was super excited to see something new.
Eventually good always overcomes evil.
Wish Europeans would have driven the Turks back to their ancestral native homeland in Central Asia
That's why they copied the date in o1 a sworching in the realm control
Many hadiths were written by the Ottomans.
9/11???
Allah mustve taken the day off 😂
Habsburgs end up REALLY in bred. Later in history.
Had this man been a contemporary of Napoleon . Napoleon would not of made the history books .
This man like Julius Caesar has the wiff of the psychopath about him
Villars defeated him
They were Muslims, that's how you should do it!
If it weren't for the Serbs to stop the strongest Ottoman army in 1389, you would all be their slaves, Europe didn't help the Serbs and that's thanks to them for being the shield of Europe, and then you attacked the Turks when they were already weakened again because of the Serbs after many Serbian uprisings.. .
Tell me, when was Serbia the shield os Europe, when did you defended Europe from the Turks? Whole Serbia was conquered by the Ottomans already in the 15th century, even before the Ottomans reached their peak during the reign of Suleiman. They conquered most of Hungary and Croatia, and were stopped there by German, Hungarian, Croatian, Spanish, Walloon and other European soldiers, but they reached even Vienna two times, several hundred kilometres from Serbia. In fact, the Serbs were the very people with the most converts to islam in the Balkans, sadly those converts even became a nation - the Bosniaks. The garrisons of the Ottoman forts in Hungary were composed mainly of south slavs, Bulgarians and Serbs, the Turks even had a Serb grand vizier - Mehmed Sokolli. And the rest of Europe didn't attacked the Ottomans, when they were weakened, quite to the contrary, this was the very war, which weakened them. The war started in 1683, the Serbs revolted in 1688, so which uprising are you talking about? The Serbs were those, who revolted against them first time successfully when they were already weak, in 1804. So, how could you claim the title of "shield of Europe", when your country was under Ottoman rule for 500 years? I don't have problem with your nation, and I admire your fights with the Turks from 1389 to 1912 (and even in 1992-95), but what you wrote it's simply not true.
16:50 "Conflageration" makes you sound illiterate.
Try "Conflagration".
It is Europe that is wild and cruel, not the Ottomans. That's how your writers were deceiving you. Armenians are making the same scandalous claims today. The Ottomans never torture prisoners, on the contrary, they try to win by treating them well. The Ottoman Empire never massacred civilians or killed women and children. The real reason for the collapse of the Ottoman Empire is these vulgar slanders.
Recently i came to know 9-11 is considered humiliation by Muslim extremists. Because of battle of zenta and siege of vienna. Terrorists wanted to avenge this loss and carried out twin tower attack.
What a stupid thing to say , connecting thing here and there that absolutely have no relation at all , this comment looks like it was typed by Sherlock Holmes on meth😂 .

911 have nothing to do with muslim, suicide is one of the biggest sins in islam
They are pathologically aggressive.
This series is one long back-handed compliment: It makes Eugen look disgraceful and portrays the Turks as dignified and honorable while the Europeans are shown as dirty drunken peasants.
Because thats how it is.. Would you rather see europeans dignified and turks as drunkards?
Because that's what they were 😂
Yall really be thinking europeans were clean back then? Good morning dear, why do you think they invented the perfume and high heels 😂
Meanwhile the Turks (and all muslims) were cleaning themselves 5 times per day and im pretty sure they were honorable also. After all, it was always because of the backstabbing of the "honorable" europeans that the Ottomans had to be busy through that led to these wars and situations (well, maybe except for the Serbians that didn't leave Sultan Bayezid during the Battle of Ankara againts the Uzbek leader Timur. But even that was not because the Serbians were honorable that they didn't want to break their promise to protect Sultan Bayezid. It was because the sister of Stefan was with the Ottomans and he needed her back)
Just because they have built all these glistening palaces, you'd think Europeans would've taken a bath even just once a week. Lol
